  1. Julie, what a wonderful life your mom has lived. While we never met her, it is clear that she had such a special impact on those fortunate enough to have been a family member, friend, or even an insect!! I (Alan) told Jeff that if my obituary contained just 1% of the beautiful thoughts and memories people have of your mom, I would be thrilled. We are so very sorry for your loss and hope that the love and support of family and friends is of some comfort for you.

    With our deepest condolences,

    Alan and Gayle

  2. So sorry for your loss Julie Janice Glenn and family. Auntie June was a beautiful person who truly loved life. She was the kindest most gentle person I have ever know. Never a bad word against anyone she truly saw only the best in everyone. Will always remember those fun times at our Stoney Lake Regattas. Her dancing, swimming and maybe even a drink or two keeping up with and outdoing the younger generation! 🥰🥰🥰
