Love, Kevin and Heather Kaiya Van Orden kaibuggs@yahoo.com Sister Sargent was in my ward and she also was in the Young Women's Organization. She was one of my young women's leaders. She was so sweet and she was funny also. We all love her so much and we send our love to all of her family!!! Love, Kaiya Van Orden Elaine Mortimer Ricks cobra84321@yahoo.com I wish to extend to all of the family my heart felt thoughts at this time and to let you know how much I admired and loved Glen. I was only about 10 years old when we lived in Coltman and I was able to sing in her girls choir in the Coltman Ward. I loved being in her choir and she was a great inspiration for me. Recently in Relief Society, one of the lessons had to do with talents; Glen helped me to foster and love my talent for music. She will always be remembered in my thoughts as a great lady. May God bless you all! Elaine Mortimer Ricks (sister of Donna Jean) Bonnie Wilkins Elser I always loved your mother. She was such a sweet lady. I remember the years I worked for her, and with her, and the many things she taught me in 4H. These are memories that I will always cherish. Please know that I am thinking of your family during this time, and I pray the Lord will comfort and bless you. Donna Jean Humphreys I am so glad you called to let me know about Glen. I loved her so much and appreciated all she was in my life. She has been such a strength to so many people. Her example of Charity will always be remembered.
