Frances Virginia Glenn, 97, of Kansas City, passed away peacefully on January 15, 2021 surrounded by family. She was born April 6, 1923 to Joseph and Teresa (Falcone) Grego. Frances grew up in the Northeast area and graduated from Northeast High School and Kansas City Business College. Following her graduation, she worked as a secretary for Corn Products and traveled with friends. On June 28, 1952, she married Edward Glenn and they went on to have two children. Along with being a homemaker, she was involved with her kids’ schools and activities and also had several part time jobs throughout her life. Ed and Frances were married for 38 years until his death in 1990. She was a member of St. Charles Catholic Church. Frances was a resident of Gladstone from 1955 until 2014.
