    I didn’t know Glenn – I’m just another fellow rider who’s heart is truly broken for this man, his family, and the other person who was in the accident. Godspeed Glenn – Ride Free

I will Cherish Every Memory of Every Day We Spent Together and I Will Never Stop Missing And Loving You .
    There Are No Words To Describe My Feelings , as I Sit Here Alone looking Over To Where You Should Be , But No Longer Are…. Thank You For Loving Me .
