Norma Glenn, beloved wife of Duke Mack Glenn, went to be with the Lord on Sunday, September 13, 2009 at her home in Creed-moor, Texas. Norma Camacho Abreu was born on July 9, 1927 in Puerto Rico and met her husband while he was stationed there in the Army-Air Force in 1941. They celebrated their 66th anniversary this past June 6.

Norma was a past Worthy Matron of the Order of the Eastern Star of Kirbyville, TX and a current member of the Creedmoor Chapter. She remained very active in her church until her illness prevented further participation.

The family is deeply grateful to Peggy Strickland, RN, who provided loving care and support for the family during her illness, and to members of Hospice Austin.

Norma is survived by her husband, Duke M. Glenn, son Robert M. Glenn and wife

Linda of League City, TX; by daughter Jacqueline Willis and husband Gordon of Creedmoor; daughter Jocelyn Henderson and husband Daniel of Riverton, WY; by six grandchildren; and eight great-grandchildren.

God looked at his garden

And found an empty place.

He then looked down upon the earth

And saw your tired face.

He put his arms around you

And liftedyou to rest

God's garden must be beautiful

He always takes the best.

He knew that you were suffering,

He knew you were in pain

He knew that you would never be

Well on earth again.

He saw the road was getting rough, and the hills were hard to climb

So He closed your weary eyelids, and

Whispered, "Peace be thine."

It broke our hearts to lose you

But you didn 'tgo alone,

For part of us went with you

The day God called you home.
