So sorry to hear this Paul and family. I knew her very well living here 17 years. My heart is so sad to hear this
Glenda was an amazingly strong person, an awesome friend, always smiling and thinking positive even when she was going through difficult medical times. One of the kindest people I have ever met always wanting to learn new things, and even during hard times looked at the bright side of life. I miss her so much
