More Information on remembering Everett Glenn

7 May 2012
Dear Members of the MKA Community,
As I’m sure many of you are aware, this weekend brought us the tragic news that Everett Glenn, a beloved member of the Class of 2011, passed away while at Lafayette College.
There is perhaps nothing more terrible than a life cut off in its prime, and when that life is of a 19-year old who exemplified all that is best, not only in an MKA graduate, but also in the promise of a new generation, the community is left stunned, saddened and grappling for answers.

The Glenn family has been a part of the MKA community for many years – Everett’s parents, Joanne and Leonard, and brothers, Chris ’03 and Darryn ’04, are known to legions of our families and alumni, and the strength that they are showing in this darkest time can perhaps serve as inspiration to us all.

In informing MKA of the service arrangements (see below) Joanne wrote the following: “We will truly appreciate continuous prayers. But we trust our faith will sustain us. God Bless.”

For those of you who wish to pay your respects in person, the viewing will be on Saturday, May 12 at 11:00 a.m. at Church of the Epiphany,
105 Main Street in Orange. The funeral will follow immediately thereafter.
For those of you who wish to convey your condolences in writing, the family’s address is:
140 Hepburn Road Apt 19E
Clifton, NJ 07012
Please know that we are providing our students and faculty with the support of counseling professionals at this most difficult time. It has been my experience that tragic times bring out the very best in our MKA community. I know you share with me in sending our thoughts and prayers to the Glenn family, and I also know that a life that shone as brightly as Everett’s will never be forgotten here at MKA.

In addition, please take a moment to visit the 'Remembering Everett'
