Two of Glenn's children, his son Elza (3) and his daughter Francis (2), died in a house fire December 6th, 1913. Grandpa was working in the woods cutting and splitting wood. His wife Myrtle brought his lunch out to him. They turned and saw smoke in the direction of the house but it was too late for the children when they got back.
Grandpa planted a pine tree next to their graves there in Bliss Cemetery. He is now buried under that tree, next to two of his children.
