My condolences to Vic and Glenda’s family. I didn’t know Glenda well but our paths crossed in the 1980s in the education field. Glenda always had a smile and made me feel welcome when I came to work with her at #8 and #3 schools.

Glenda had a kind heart and a gentle way about her. She always greeted us 'kids' with a smile when we'd visit. I am sorry to read that she passed on. My condolences to everyone in the family.
