Obituary - Francis Glen Grozell

Dear Barb, I was very sorry to hear about Glen's passing. Know that I am thinking about you and your family and my prayers are with you. Sincerely, Berna kinch

The Brotzell family wishes to extend our condolences to the family. My dad passed in May but used to have coffee with Glen at the Redcliff Legion. They shared many a laugh and great chats. Glen was always warm and friendly. I hope you all take comfort in the happy memories and that they can comfort you in this difficult time.

Know that we love you Barb. Daina, Jarvis, Alana, AJ, Hanna and Madox

Barb and Family.
So sorry about Glen.Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.

My heart hurts for you Auntie Bobby, Kim and Kelly, please know that my prayers are with you and for you. Uncle Glen will always remain in my memory and heart as the "gentle giant" he was, with a heart of gold. He was an inspiration to me and all; be it family, friend or just a passing acquaintance. He always had a smile, hug and joke or riddle for me. My fondest and most memorable memories of Uncle Glen that will remain in my heart and follow me through my life will be his incredible and amazing gift of being able to amaze and wow me with his jokes, brainteasers and magical illusions. "Auntie Glen" in conjunction with "Uncle booby". I will miss him. I will always resent the fact that everyday life and what it hands out on a daily basis, makes it so hard for those of us in the younger generation to have and or make time to connect and get together with our extended family members, who were responsible and had the greatest influence on who we are and how we came to be the people we are. I was not aware of "Auntie" (Uncle) Glen's S.P.C.A interest. Would love to have spoken and compared feelings. In lieu of not being able to, will save a few lives together. With Love Tammy

Dear Barb,Kim and Kelly. Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this time and in the days to come. So many great memories of times we have spent together in Calgary just 50 short years ago. Our last visit was the best and we cherish that time. Take care and remember the Lord holds you in the palm of His hand. Love from Donna and George and Family

Barb, I am sending my condolences for the loss of your husband. I hope you will find comfort with family and friends.

The girls at Timmies were shocked to hear of his passing. He will be Sadly missed. Our thoughts are with his family and friends in this time of grief.

Barb, our thoughts are with you, Kelly and Kim. I have many wonderful memories of Glen. I loved his wonderful sense of humour. I know how difficult it is for you but remember that there are alot of people, friends and family, who are thinking of you at this time. I wish I could be there for the funeral but unfortunately I am unable to make it. Take care. Lynette

Dear Barb and family: We are so sorry to hear of Glen's passing. Our thoughts are with you. We are presently out of the country and are unable to attend the celebration of Glen's life. We will think of all the good times we had at the Golf Course and do remember some of Glen's stories. We are so glad to have known Glen. Although our lives change as time passes, we never forget old friends. Again, our thoughts are with you. Clive & Sharon Keeler

Dear Barb, Please accept my sincere sympathy in the loss of your husband!

Barb, Kelly, Kim & all of the extended Grozell families: We were saddened to hear that Glen had died. He will be missed by all of you and anyone who knew him. When we think of Glen, Dale often tells the story of Glen & Larry (Dale's younger brother). Apparently, Larry & Glen had decided they would give smoking a try, not expecting to get caught, but they did, by Larry's Dad. "Okay boys, you want to smoke, give this a try", and he offered them a lit up cigar. Larry accepted the challenge but after a few puffs, abandoned the cigar and crawled under the front porch, slightly "green around the gills". Glen approached Larry's Dad and said, "Mr. Leflar, Larry will NEVER smoke again!" The Grozell-Leflar relationship is filled with many of those kinds of memories, the kind that make us smile or enjoy a good laugh. We hope that some of those same memories will help ease your sorrow during the weeks and months ahead. With our deepest sympathy.

Barb & Family: So sorry to hear of Glen's passing. Remember the good times.

Dear Barb and all the Family, We were indeed very saddened to read of the passing of your dear Glen. On behalf of Kiyo and myself, we wish to extend to you our deepest sympathies. You were great neighbors to us in Redcliff when we lived on 6th. Street and wonderful and loyal customers in our pharmacy. We really appreciated your business over the years and always enjoyed the times you or Glen came into the store. Glen was a gentle and very sweet man with a great sense of humor. We will be thinking of you at this time. Very sincerely, Debby and Kiyo Oikawa, formerly Redcliff and now Edmonton

I just heard about this now. I knew Mr. Grozell from my childhood. He was one of those outstanding dads that were always around. Kind to us kids, helpful and providing a great example. So sorry to have heard he passed.
