yesteryearforge Posted August 28, 2023 Share Posted August 28, 2023 Had known Glenn from the slack tub pup in the Anvilfire days a good while before he started Iforgeiron. He will be missed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chad J. Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 I never got to meet Glenn but this forum has had an impact on me, the collection of smithing knowledge here is beyond anything seen in previous generations. Rest easy Glenn, your legacy is above and beyond what you may have thought it could ever be. Foo I hope you and your family find peace and will forever cherish the time you had with Glenn.

natkova Posted September 10, 2023 Share Posted September 10, 2023 We spend a lots of time writing about smithing, and he gave lots off advices not only on smithing part but on life in general. I just now saw this message that he is passed away. He was good and patient man, I asked him a lots of questions and he always answered them with clear description how something should be done and why it should be done that way.

Shainarue Posted September 11, 2023 Share Posted September 11, 2023 I never met Glenn in person, nor talked to him on the phone - but we did have many conversations via messages and exchanged a few cards via snail mail. He imparted many words of wisdom and I'm sure he'll be in my thoughts regularly as I often think of him whenever I'm doing something which he's guided me on.

M.J.Lampert Posted September 26, 2023 Share Posted September 26, 2023 I know I'm coming to this conversation late, but I just got back after three months. My condolences to Foo and family.

Woody Posted September 29, 2023 Share Posted September 29, 2023 I haven't been around IFI for quite some time. Just dropped in today by chance. I am devastated to learn of Glenn's passing. I remember when IFI was just starting out. I had many on line conversations with Glenn, and I will always remember his call to me when my wife Candy died. He was a great guy. Some of the Good has gone from the World with his passing. "Eternal rest grant to him O'Lord and let perpetual light shine upon him. May he Rest in Peace. Amen."

Nobody Special Posted October 15, 2023 Share Posted October 15, 2023 I've been absent from blacksmithing and from this site for some time. Found out today that Glenn had passed, and moments ago about Thomas. To their family and friends, I am sorry for their loss, the world was a better place for having met them. I learned a lot from each, and I am sorry to know they're gone. The world is dimmer without them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrazyGoatLady Posted Thursday at 08:20 PM Share Posted Thursday at 08:20 PM Oh my gosh. I haven't been on IFI in so long and I had no idea that Glenn AND Thomas Powers passed away. I am heartbroken to hear this. My condolences to both families. I spoke with Glenn on several occasions. He tried so hard to help me in my blacksmithing journey and in a few other subjects like knots for use in hauling logs. Such a big hearted, kind man. I'll miss him dearly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George N. M. Posted Thursday at 09:54 PM Share Posted Thursday at 09:54 PM Dear CGL, Yes, it is very sad for us that both Glenn and Thomas have passed over the Rainbow Bridge but I expect we'll see them again. On a happier note, I am tickled to see that you are back. We've missed you. Tell us what you have been doing, particularly about blacksmithing, over the last couple of years.

Both those guys were such heroes for the craft. I still can't get over it. I've been thinking of all my old friends here and you were one of them. I'm better these days. Quite a lot going on in my life over all this time. I don't feel right chatting about it while on this topic but perhaps I can make a new thread. Or go to Show Me Your Goats lol. So good to talk to you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
