Robyn and I want to give you our condolence on your loss. Rick was a great friend, fellow Chief, brother as we are sure, a superb husband and father. He treated all I know with dignity and respect and a caring Healthcare provider. We will miss him until we meet again.God bless and strengthen your family at this time. Robyn and David.

Kathy so sorry to hear about rick.

Rick was more than just a brother-in-law to me. He was a true "brother". I was only a teenager when he joined our family and he had a strong influence on me during those years. He fit right in to our southern family from the very beginning. Rick loved my country home-cooking and looked forward to my visits. I have great memories of our time together either playing cards, playing music, or watching football or Nascar. He loved my sister totally and completely and was a wonderful husband to her, as he was a father to my 2 nephews, 2 granddaughters and role model to me. He was definitely one of a kind and our family will miss him and the looooooooooooooong talks we all would have with him. He touched all of our lives and can never be replaced. We were lucky to have had the opportunity to know and love him. He will be missed. Love you brother!

To the Glenn family. I had the distint privlage and honor of taking care of your loved one. He was a joy and we had many conversations during the night while he was talking. I can tell you all that he loved and adored his wife,sons, and grandaughters. We enjoyed looking at the pictures that You had brought in for him Kathy and we laughed and he told me about them. Even telling me about his music and playing th banjo. I wish I would have had the opportunity to know him longer but the time I did it was a great experience. He had a beautiful little smile and would roll those eyes up. I remember the night he ask me for a real drink. I laughed and said, "all I have is juice, water, coffee, milk," he rolled his eyes at me and said, "I Like Busch Lite!" I will never forget the time that we were able to take care of him. I am praying for you all and I know that God has you all in his arms and will comfort you during this time. May God Bless

Rick was "the best brother-in-law" I could ever have. I would always remind him of that during my frequent visits. Our ongoing battle was over the "tea". He would never want to share his tea with me and I never gave him the chance to say "no". We would always argue back and forth about whose turn it was to make the tea, I always lost! He was a great brother to me and a wonderful husband to my sister, father to my nephews and grandfather to my nieces. We will all miss him terribly. Good-bye Rickey-Bobby. Rest in peace.

Hello.
I would like to share a few words with you in the bible at Isaiah 25:8 here god says he will wipe away all tears from your eye's and swallow death or wipe away i hope these words bring comfort

Rick was great brother with an enormous heart, whom we all miss greatly. Fair winds and following seas, Chief! Love, Barry and Jackie

My dad was one of the most loving and supportive men I have ever known. He always put our wants and needs first ahead of his own. His guidance and encouragement to become the man I am today was something I will cherish forever. Because of the family values he and my mom have instilled in me and my brother, we cherish the time we had with him. He was one in a million and we love and miss him. I can still hear him saying, "Bud, I love you". We miss you dad.

You will be missed, Poppa Dukes. Thank you for the many years of support and the kind words of wisdom. You have helped me be a better man and I will always owe you a debt of gratitude. "There's a tear in my beer, cause I'm cryin' for you dear." -Hank Williams, Sr.

Our thoughts and prayers are with your entire family during this very difficult time.

I could not have picked a better Dad than my father. Not only did he teach me how to throw a baseball, shave, tie a tie, etc... but he did it with care and love. He was a very proud veteran and enjoyed telling me stories that he saw when he was enlisted. With his wisdom and generosity I will pass down that trait to my children. I love and miss you so much Dad. Thank you for being the father that you were. "Not only did I loose my father but I lost my best friend." - Fraternity Brother Jason Seward

Love,
Your Son Rich

Life, like a mist, appears for just a day,
then disappears tomorrow.
All that we are can quickly fade away,
replaced with tears and sorrow.
If a man should die, can he live again?
Hear the promise God has made: He will call; The dead will answer.
They shall live at his command. For he will have a longing For the work of his own hand.
So have faith, and do not wonder, for our God can make us stand.
And we shall live forever, as the work of his own hand.

Job 14:13-15

CORRECTION:

39 years ago I met and fell in love with Rick. He proposed to me after spending only one week together. We married and began our journey. The military was an exciting career for us and we enjoyed our numerous duty stations. We have 2 handsome, loving son's that were Rick's pride and joy. We have two beautiful granddaughters that he loved spoiling beyond belief! He clung tightly to the intense love he had for his family, his country and his music. Our lives have been enriched by having had the opportunity to be a part of such a loving and humble man. The Glenn family appreciates everyone's love, prayers and support during his short illness. We are eternally grateful. God Bless All of You!

Kathy,Jamie and Richie,
There wasn't anybody I served with during my time in the Navy that wore that uniform with more pride than Rick. A true patriot. I hope you have your banjo with you. Rest in Peace my friend.

Rest in Peace Dear Brother-In-Law.

I'll always remember when Kenny and I were little and we used to sleep over how much fun we would all have. Sometimes you would get a fire going in the fireplace and we had our whole bedtime routine with you and Aunt Kathy with our teddy bears you used to keep at the house for us for when we would come and spend the night. You always had a smile for us and even now while I'm remembering you it seems you were always laughing. Rest in peace Uncle Rick. You are missed.

I am sorry to hear of your loss. The death of a loved one is one of the most devastating experiences a human can face. At times, the loss can seem unbearable. The Bible promises; "God is near to the brokenhearted." It also says: "Throw your burden on God and he will sustain you." (Psalms 34;18 and 55:22) I hope this message will help you cope with the loss of your loved one.

My dear, sweet brother! I will miss you so much! I have so many memories of Richard that I cherish. When we were kids, we often lived in the rural areas in large houses near woods and creeks (10 kids in the family). He and I became best friends being only 2 yrs apart. I only have good memories of him. He never was bad or onery like I was. He always had honor and integrity especially to the Marine Corp. & Navy. I remember he and Stephen, his brother coming home from being wounded in 'Nam' to heal from wounds and bonding. During that time, Barry, Donnie & Chris were 'playing war with plastic 'Tommy Guns' that went 'rat-a-tat-tat' & Stephen destroying them 'cuz of the real war sounds we did not think about. Richard was one of the most decent men I've ever known. I remember him lying in his letters to Mom from 'Nam' that he was not in the fighting part of 'Nam' and her finding out the hard way that he was. I don't know how he came home from there sane. But he did. How I loved to sit on the floor and sing with him while he played his guitar or banjo! "Strawberry Wine" was one of our favorites along with "Amazing Grace." He was a wonderful man, patriot, brother and singer! This space is not big enough to tell you about my purple heart winning, Viet Nam serving, sweet brother, Richard A. Glenn! I know when his spirit pryed itself loose from that clay body, it flew to the arms of family waiting to help him cross the Jordan River! He definetly is free from pain forever! I can't wait to see him again on the other side! Such a good guy! Thank you, Richard for the memories. When I cross over, look for me as I will look for you! I love you!
