Tom, I am beyond heartbroken to hear this news. I am praying hard for God to give you comfort and to wrap his arms around you and the whole family at this very sad time. I dearly loved Glenda and I am honored to have known her.

My deepest condolences to Tom Slaughter, Mom’s perfect partner in life. Mom loved more than was humanly possible, was more intelligent than many could understand, and had limitless strength and resilience. I am so happy she was able to live out her dream working her grandparents’ land creating a business to be proud of alongside her spouse. I am sorry for the loss of the many friends she made along the way. And for the loss to our family with Mom being taken too early from us all. I hope she knows peace and can hear our prayers from Heaven. Please tell Papa Hi for me, your son, Nicholas “The Great” (her nickname for me).
