Background
Glenn and Rhoda retired to Murrells Inlet, their chosen paradise, for the last few years of Glenn's life. He loved the sand, the waves, and the marsh; admired the turtles, dolphins, and birds. He spent his final years in peaceful bliss, combing the sands for shark teeth and cruising the black waters of the Waccamaw River.
The family looks forward to building a memorial bench in his honor somewhere along the coast in Murrells Inlet, a place where loved ones can sit in quiet reflection on a life well lived. Consider contributing to Glenn's memorial fund to help bring it to life. Contribute
