Glade is also survived by her sisters Brade Tyler, Betty (David) Meyer, her sister-in-law, Sharon Quesinberry, daughter-in-law Diane Ison, step-sister-in-law, Janice Ison, and her nieces, nephews, cousins, and very special friends.

The family would like to extend heartfelt thanks to the caring staff at the Crandon Nursing Home, and to those who took the time to visit and cheer her up, especially during her final months. Do not sadly look upon my body, eroded from the effects of time and infirmity. Look instead into my soul, where I still love, and remember, and laugh and dance, and take on the world – for it is there that I remain forever young. – MIK 2010 Visitations: 10:00AM to 12:00PM on Thursday, April 8th, 2010 at Praise Chapel Community Church (map/driving directions) Services: 12:00PM at Praise Chapel Community Church on Thursday, April 8th, 2010 (map/driving directions) Cemetery: Crandon Lakeside Cemetery Crandon, WI 54520 (map/driving directions)
