Ronald S. Glanville

Ronald S. Glanville, 57, left our land “our world” on April 1, 2016 at his home in Clear Lake following a battle with cancer.  He was the husband of Carrie for 21 years.

There will be a time of gathering for family and friends from 4:40-7:30 p.m. on Friday, April 15, 2016, at the Ward-Van Slyke Colonial Chapel, Clear Lake.
