I remember the Glynns when they lived on Bammel St. Mister Glynn, known as "Cress" worked with my dad at Globe Box Co, owned by George "Penn" Kendall. We lived on Virginia St, and I had the neighborhood paper route for the Houston Press. Carlin was 9yrs older, but super nice. We were all very proud of Carlin and Peter´s successes in their thespian endeavors. May she rest peacefully in the arms of our Lord. Mark Stamey
