A Heart-felt "Thank You" To My Past Employers,
 Friends and Peers Located in Los Angeles, Ca.

 
I've learned much of what I know today from my past employers, friends and peers during my 25 year stay in the Los Angeles area. I'd like to take this opportunity to thank them for their kindness, friendship and support.
To Carol and Ivan Dryer and all my dear friends at Laserium

There is nothing that has meant more to me than the 25 incredible years I spent working with you all. Ivan, you are the strongest, most visionary person I've met in my life. I'm sure that your vision of the Laserium Pyradome was way ahead of its time and will surely be fulfilled sometime in the future. You've faced and conquered challenges that would have caused nine out of ten men to fall. The love and caring you've given to Carol and all of your employees through good times and bad is beyond measure. Of all my previous employers, you are the only one that sends me a Christmas card every year. It means the world to me. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to perform Laserium shows for you for 25 years. I consider myself the luckiest person in the world to have had that opportunity.

Best regards, Glenn

To Jay Blank of Northrop Electronics

Jay, I can't thank you enough for hiring me as an Integrated Logistics Support Specialist for the Human Factors Department of Northrop Electronics. Of all the jobs I've held in my life, I never felt more "at home" than working side by side with our country's greatest engineers on a daily basis. It was wonderful to work in an environment where all our time was spent communicating, designing and building rather than bickering, gossiping and complaining, which is common in most workplaces. Thank you for your friendship, guidance and support. I'll always cherish the time we spent together. Give our love to Francis.

Your friend always, Glenn

To Rick Jurasky, owner of R-Squared, Santa Monica, Ca.

Rick, the year I spent working for you was one of the most exciting times of my life. You exposed me to the truly amazing world of High-end audio / video installation. I can't tell you how much fun I had working with your lead tech Jeff in the homes of millionaires on a weekly basis. As tough as it was on us all, building the dedicated home theater at Greensleeves, Barbados was an experience I'll never forget. You and Jeff taught me much of what I know today about high-end design, installation, programming and customer service. You gave me a vision of the future I hoped to build for myself. Here, in St. George, Utah, that vision is becoming a reality. My best, always, to you, Jeff and everyone else at R-Squared.

With Great Respect, Glenn

To Lyn Perry, President, Mike McMaster, CEO, Steve Honig, Sales Manager and Brian Righetti, Custom Installation Manager and all my friends at Wilshire Home Entertainment, Thousand Oaks, Ca.

Lyn and Mike,  thank you for inviting me to work for you as a Project Coordinator for Wilshire Home Entertainment. I had an absolutely wonderful time there and I must say "There was never a dull moment!" Running two installation crews, six days a week, 52 weeks a year was very hard but exciting work. I loved it. I'll always remember, with a fond heart and aching head, the all night Birthday Party you gave me at Cedia in Indianapolis.

Steve, you have the most amazing "positive attitude" I've ever seen. You have the uncanny ability to turn ANY difficult situation into a positive one. You're brilliant with people, an expert businessman, a wonderful friend and a great drummer! I can't tell you how much I miss you.

Brian, what can I say? You and I had the most successful working relationship I think anyone could wish for. We spent 3 years, side by side, in the same office and never once had an argument or blowout with each other. I respected you and you respected me. We enjoyed good times and worked through many bad times, side by side. We learned a lot from each other. We grew stronger together. Today and always, I will have the deepest respect for you and wish you, Alicia and your children the very best.

Johnny, Phil, Mark C., Mark E., Tim, Art, Patrick, Mark , Karen, Cynthia, Robert, Justin, Joe, Allen, Brian ... Thank you ALL for a wonderful 3 years!

Best regards, Glenn

To my dear friend, Ronnie Turso

Ronnie, I love you. You are my dearest friend. You are THE REASON I moved to California and began 25 years of wonderful experiences. I was fresh out of high school, a year into college when I met you. In the many years I played in your band, T. R. William and Flint, you taught me a great deal about life. You helped me to "grow up." You introduced me to the Army National Guard where I learned "I can do anything" in basic and advanced military training. You have thrilled me, my family and hundreds of thousands of people with your incredible music. You've given the world a great gift with your heart, soul and voice. I wish I lived close to you today so I could come and see you perform on a regular basis. Thanks for all you've taught me. Thanks for all you've given me. Thanks for always being there for me. Give my best to Val, Sandy, Shaun and Jean.

Love you, Glenn

To Dr. Krupp, Ken Warren, Nick Read, Steve Cooperman, Julie Silverman, Jon Hodge, Roger Keen, Jim Summers, Kirk Palmer, Earl Vander Wall of Griffith Observatory, Los Angeles, Ca.

I want to thank all my friends at Griffith Observatory, past and present, for allowing me the pleasure of performing Laserium Shows in your wonderful dome for 25 years. As I've said many times before, performing Laserium at Griffith for all those years was a blessing from Heaven. Working with all of you was a great pleasure. Thank you for the kindness and respect you showed me over such a long period of time. Leaving the observatory, alone, after the shows was a surreal experience. Every night was the same. I closed the front door behind me. Someone in your staff turned off the parking lot lights. I walked very slowly across the front lawn, enjoying the dampness, the fog on many occasions, the incredible stillness of the air, the silence from the huge city below and, when it was clear,  I looked up at the beautiful stars above and thanked God for giving me the honor and pleasure of working at the most famous and beautiful place in Los Angeles and perhaps, on Earth. I cherished every night at Griffith, knowing that some day Laserium would close and I would never again experience this wonderful gift. My heart aches for no longer being there with you.

Enjoy every minute you have. Respectfully yours, Glenn

My list of  Los Angeles "Thank You" notes is FAR from complete. There are hundreds of past clients and business persons I'd like to thank. I would probably have to write a small book to thank you all. Suffice it to say, if I had a business or personal relationship with you in any way, I'd like to express my deepest appreciation for your support and friendship.

Leaving you all to move to Utah was a HUGE change of life; a much more traumatic experience than I ever imagined. I feel as if I've died and been re-born to start a new life here but I still have a strong memory of my past life. Moving to Utah has brought me much happiness in my business and personal life but much sadness in missing all of you.

Cheers, no worries, good health and happy days until I see you again.

Glenn
