He's the one in the family that when he comes in solace, he always brought us kids food, happy meals, big meals. Whatever hate, it always makes sure we had that and lots of candy. Cause he love to aggravate my mama and mama would tell him don't give them kids. No candy and he would come with a big old grocery bag full of them and pass them out to all of us and tell us to go hide and eat it. But he would always say if I ask you, it didn't come from me. I always stuck to that. I love you Glen. N sorry I didn't know you passed brother. Or I would have been there, you know, tdamn? You're gonna be missed? Dennis will never be enough, but the office now that the chances of funding or how the night with a raging storm.
