The document acknowledges his survivors, including his wife of 52 years, Cheryl, his children, grandchildren, and siblings, and formally expresses the Illinois Senate's condolences to his family and friends. The resolution concludes by directing that a copy of the document be presented to Glass's family as a symbol of the Senate's sympathy and recognition of his life and contributions to his community.
