    Glenn, you did many things to help me! You worked on my car, fixed things around the house that needed fixing, even built me a really nice stable and manger for my nativity scene outside, but the one thing you did that I am sure entertained all of heaven is when you helped me with Crackers! Glenn was my brother-in-law. He and my sister Bethany live right next door to me. I have birds as pets and one bird in particular – a parrot (a Blue Crown Conure) named Crackers – was a part of our family for over 25 years! Everyone loved her - including Glenn! One Friday, Crackers had a stroke, lost the use of her legs and was dying. Birds poop about every 15 minutes and her linens would constantly have to be changed. I stayed up all night that weekend to keep her clean, but on Monday I had to be at work. Not knowing what to do about my precious baby Crackers, I asked Glenn if he would help me take care of her. Without hesitation, he said, "yes!" So for two days until Crackers died on Wednesday, Glenn came to my house every half hour to keep her clean and used a dropper to give her juice and water while I was at work. I had such peace of mind knowing that Crackers was being cared for by Glenn! I don't know what I would have done without his help! So for those of you who did not know him – this good guy was Glenn Hickman! I know God is rewarding him for this!

    Well I wanted to write a few words as only I can since this will be here forever. Glenn I married you when I was 18 years old I spent 33 years with you ,we had 3 children . Nobody ever thinks that your loved one will be gone at 56 years old but it sure happened to us didn't it .Sure we had our ups and downs but who doesnt we stayed together through it all and that's all that matters.It hurt me everyday watching the once strong robust man I remember dwindle down to what sickness does to a body I knew you weren't happy with how things was but we did the best we could.I try ed getting you the best doctors out there but with all of our work we couldn't save you from leaving.So my promise to you is I'm gonna start taking care of myself so your memory can live on through me .I take great comfort knowing you were right with God and I'm overjoyed you are not in pain anymore.Keep praying for your family here and keep watching over us we love you and miss you .your wife Bethany

    Dad, I put some pictures up for you today. I don't have any really new ones of you. You have been sick for a while. I am glad you aren't hurting anymore. It will take some time for our pain to subside. I will try to add pictures now and again, so you can see from where you are. Not that I don't think you aren't around and need this page, but I think it would make you happy to know that I kept it up, so I will try. Don't worry about Max, I will take care of him too. I wish I had something to say that was uplifting and heart felt but I don't. I miss you and I wish you were here. I know heaven is a much better place than here and I know that being there gives you the ability to walk tall, eat what you want, and never have to take another pain medication again. It still does not take the every day ache away. Till we meet again, dad. Take notes. Have fun. Do the things I never got to see you do, because when that day comes for me to see you again, I have questions!

    This message is for a great friend we had lots of great times together with Glenn and his great wife Bethany just was to share a bit of how we all meet Glenn and Jr. meet way before me and Bethany they work on car so there was a lot the two of them had to talk about. It took some time for me to meet Bethany I work three job at the time there was this one day that Bethany said from her back door a woman are you going to use your clothes line I said no but you can use it any time from there a friend ship started. There where the times we eat together and some of the best time where when we put our children to bed and Glenn would do a fire outside and we set around and talk . Glenn was a great friend and a big help to all that he knew. He was fun to be around when you where sad he knew how to make you laugh. I will miss him a lot I know he is having a bless time with Jesus. Gleen will be miss my friend.

    My Uncle Glenn had a huge sense of humor, was many times quite cranky but that was the beauty of what made Glenn unique. I've never met anyone like him. He is from the south, a Texan with family in Alabama and has that southern charm about him. He was always good to me, my brother, family and a great father to his kids and husband to my aunt. He will be sorely missed but am thankful he is away from pain. We'll have that dinner I promised you together in Heaven in the future Glenn. Sending prayers and my family's deepest condolences to the entire Hickman and Snyder families.

    Honestly, in all of the years that Bethany and Glenn were married, I never really got to know Glenn well. But what I do know is that Bethany loved him and created a wonderful life with him. Together they had three totally awesome children and two little grandchildren and they withstood the test of time. God clearly orchestrated that union and blessed them. My beliefs lead me to believe that he's more alive now than he was a couple of days ago. It doesn't mean that he won't be missed horribly by his family. But thanks to the hope of the Resurrection, we Christians only change addresses. I believe he is alive and with Dad and Clara and JESUS, and we will all be together again one day soon. My prayers are with my sister Bethany and her family, may God bless them and keep them and make His face to shine upon them, until that great day when we are all together again. With a heavy heart, I send my love...Mary
