My sympathy to all of the Glynn Family !!
Mary, I was so sorry to read of the loss of your father. My prayers and those of my husband and parents are with you all at this terrible time.
I met Tommy Glynn in the mid 1950s when we worked for the Armour Meat Packing Company on Columbus Ave in Boston. We both had recently been discharged from the Marine Corps. Although we hadn’t served together, the USMC bond drew us together. He was a terrific guy to be around.
I met him after work a number of times in Mattapan Square for a couple of cold ones. Tommy told great stories and what a sense of humor!! We ultimately left Armour’s and went our separate ways.
A number of years later I spotted Tommy as an MDC cop in Brighton. Every part of his uniform was either spit shined or highly polished. Once a Marine always a Marine.
From the comments on this Legacy page, it seems Tommy never lost his ability to tell a good story or his sense of humor.
My condolences to his family and many friends.
Semper Fidelis, Tommy.
Like the good Marine you are, keep Heaven’s streets guarded. We’ll all be taking our posts some day.
