Billy Glenn

It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe you have a creative proI was sad to hear the news of Billy Glenn’s passing at the tender age of 89ish. Billy came to our shop as a visitor, became a customer and ended up a sort of member of our extended family. He had been hospital bound for a couple of years now, though my father was quite diligent about talking to him once or twice a week right up till dad passed on in January.

Billy was an interesting man. Earnest, honest and most of all private. Being tattooed the way he was he had his photo taken often but never approved of his likeness being reproduced on the internet, especially for profit or held up for some sort of ridicule.

We are sharing these photos now out of respect and to put an extraordinary face to a special name. Please be respectful.

Billy, thank you for letting us get to know you and sharing your stories with us. Now sleep well old friend……
