Deepest sympathies to all the family. Mr. Williamson was one of the good guys. The privilege of knowing him was all mine. He truly was a Godly man and a true testament of how a Christian should live. It’s not goodbye my friend, it’s see you later. Love to all the family.

Glen was a great man that our country needed more of. He was very soul conscious and to try and spiritually helping others how ever he could. It was a pleasure to serve with him while he was head deacon at our church. Now Harvest Baptist. He was dedicated to helping the pastor lead the church. A great soul winning mentor. May be now rest and rejoice in Heaven. It will be a great day when we see each other again!

Glen was a beautiful human being. He was my church bus driver to North Sharon and became a family friend. He was a genuine, kind and compassionate man who loved the Lord. It was an honor to know him.
