Such a great funeral service today. We will always remember your mom as a fantastic woman and a great friend. Our deepest condolences to all. She will be missed by many. I loved seeing her at all the family picnics and Christmas events. Many years ago when you were young children I often stayed overnight at your place and went to the dances at the arena. My sidekick was aunt Fran. So many fond memories.
Take care and remember the fond memories,
Brenda and Ken Bast

From my childhood I remember all the cousins at Grandma Smiths and the Aunts were constantly cooking. Glenna was a great cook. Her butter tarts are legend.
I am so saddened to hear of Glenna's passing. She was such a beautiful person. It was always so special to see her out walking - you would always know it was her when you say the hat. Her smile and kind words made you feel good whenever you spoke to her. She will be missed.
