My Son Kenny was one of Glen's pit crew and Glen got Kenny to start
racing. We sure enjoyed going racing with Vera and Glen. I worked
with Vera for 14 years and I knew how much every one enjoyed his
racing. He was so much fun and happy all the time and would help
his other guy with all kinds of work on cars. He sure will be miss
by a lot of racing buddies and friends. I am so sorry for the family
and his borther. He will be known as a great stock car driver forever.
Our hearts go out to his son, kenny and Connie.
The Riche family are proud to have known him. I bet Dick and Glen are
racing up in heaven.
