It breaks my heart to write that Uncle Glen passed away at 4:30 am Austin time on November 9, 2009. His family was with him. He suffered from cancer and will be greatly missed by us all.

A beloved husband, father, grandfather and great grandfather was called home Monday morning. He served his country in the US Air Force for 30 plus years and retired in 1979 as CM Sgt.. He was a Freemason for 60 years. He is survived by wife of 61 years, Harriet Smith, children Darrell Smith, Cheryl Smith, Sandra Smith, and Carol Loncola and husband Gregory Loncola; grandchildren, Heather Barfield, husband Jason Cole, Eros Smith, Sanya Jochec Lolly and husband Ryan Lolly, Stacey Bigler, Susan Bigler, Lesley Brooks; great grandchildren Rhett Lolly, Reece Lolly, Natalie Baade and Forest Cole and numerous relatives and dear friends.

Mom, Dad, Uncle Paul, and I will be attending the viewing and cemetery services. Gamaw will be there in spirit. She is not quite ready to attend another funeral but said she could serve best by keeping the kids while Mom is away.
