To The Birnie Family, It saddens me to read about Glen's passing. Something that helps me cope is found in the bible. It assures us God is near to those that are broken at heart and those who are crushed in spirit he saves. (Psalm 34:18) More than anything else, a relationship with God can help you to cope with the death of someone you love. May he be with your family today and the months to come. I hope everyone Glen touched can find comfort in these words.

Loretta & family. Our thoughts are with you all. We always enjoyed our trips to Deadwood with Glen & yourself. Great bus driver & person. Hugs.

Dear Lorretta We are sorry to hear about Glen. Our prayers are with you and your family at this time. It was always nice to meet both of you on the bus trips.

Loretta and family, thinking of you at this sad and difficult time, I have great memories of the fun trips we had with you and Glen, he was a very special person and he will be missed.

When I think of Glen, I remember the days when I would visit Glen after supper and everyone in his big family would be singing country music as they cleaned up the dishes. Many nights we climbed the outside staircase at the CKRM building to visit Bev Munro who had the Midnight to Dawn Show. Good Memories!!! Glad I found him this past summer and reconnected with him on the phone.

Dear Loretta, Launa, Lisa and boys ( kayden and Landon) Remember our loved ones never truly leave us, They live on in the kindness they showed, the comfort they shared, And the love they brought into our lives. Time moves on but our hearts never forget, May you find comfort in wonderful memories and shelter in the love of family and friends. With deepest sympathy Daphne, Ray, Liam and Keith
