I really enjoyed when Glenn took me fishing. He would take me on the river or lake where I could really enjoy the Kentucky outdoors. I used to call him Slowgo instead of Sluggo which made him laugh. If it wasn't for the distance between Kentucky and Florida, we would have come even better buddies. The days that we spent at the beach were special as well. He always had a story to tell, especially when it came to his military service. The military hat that he wore always told his story of pride for his service in the Vietnam War. He loved soaking up the bright sun along with the sound of crashing waves at his favorite Florida destination, the Surf Song Hotel in Madeira Beach.Those memories will forever be etched in our memory. Glenn will sorely missed by us. Love to the Cooper Family, Randy and Debi Adkison

I first meet Sluggo same time around our 11th or 12th year of age.. I never really thought about his name at the time but just assumed later he got it because of a carttoon that was popular back then.. In that cartoon was a character named Sluggo. Sluggo was a big strong man who had a reputations a tough guy. As someone on the receiving end of his punches from time to time I know he definitely earned that name. But importantly we were never angry with each other and were always friends.. As time went by we lost touch until Arnold's Christmas parties brought us back together.. We have been able as a family enjoy a wedding and an anniversary party as well. As Glenn and I sat together at Arnolds we talked about our many common interests. We were both proud of our military service. We laughed about our times as teens and as old men do our health problems. But the most important discussion was about our love of family. He was a proud papa and grandpa. Glenn was one of a kind he let you know his opinion no matter the subject. Thats one of the many reasons I enjoyed his company. But fortunately he gave up punching people in his later years. We will miss you old friend. Brenda and Bob

What a beautiful tribute to a honorable man. I will always hold him in my heart. The day of my dad’s funeral Glenn pulled me aside and asked me to go to dads coffin with him. He proceeded to thank him for his service and saluted him. Wow, that touched me deeply. He was so proud of his time in the U. S. Army during the Vietnam War. He proudly wore his veteran hat, always! I will miss him at the family gatherings and I think I will still make you that pecan pie every Thanksgiving! Love, Voni

Heartfelt condolences from Scott and Joan Service. I enjoyed talking to Sluggo about deer hunting and had lots of conversations with him sitting on his lawnmower . I was especially proud to know he was an Army veteren--we'll miss him.
