Wow, I had no idea he was/is 78 years old. I thought he was close too my age....gezzzzz
First of all IF I live to be 78, and go loopy, I don't really care.
I hate country music, but I alway's like Glen. He really was a very good singer.
CBS Sunday morning had a great segment on him. Look it up if you get a chance.
