I met John Glaser when I was 8 years old, in our living room on Farwell Ave when my dad, the head basketball coach at Marquette University, asked him to play for the Warriors. He accepted, and for the next 4 years I watched in amazement as he became one of the leading scorers and rebounders not only for Marquette, but in all of college basketball.
Ironically, I saw Coach Glaser in our living room a second time in 1961, again on a “basketball trip” This time he asked my dad if I would attend Marquette High to play basketball for him. I was as thrilled in ‘61 as my dad was in ‘54.
John Glaser was a hero to me … as a college player, a high school coach, a family friend, a close personal friend. He was always there to answer my calls, send letters of reference, offer advice over lunch, keep me in a positive frame of mind. I think he did these things for any former player of his who called upon him. In fact, I know he did.
At the conclusion of the movie, “Tombstone,” the narrator, Robert Mitchem, said, “when hearing of the death of Wyatt Earp … Tom Mix wept.” I’m not at all embarrassed to say that when hearing of the passing of John Glaser, I wept.

Coincidentally, today I came across the following passage that seems to fit the occasion. It's from a book about Abraham Lincoln.
Ten months after Lincoln's son, Willie, died, he told a little girl whose father had recently died, "In time, the memory of your dear Father, instead of an agony, will yet be a sad sweet feeling in your heart, of a purer, and holier sort than you have known before. "
Jane and family: So sorry for the loss of your husband and father. May the passage of time along with the support of family and friends bring healing and peace.
