- [00:00:09.640]I'm Jay Pokorny, live in
- [00:00:11.775]Chadds Ford Pennsylvania, graduated from
- [00:00:13.587]Nebraska in 1966, Cornhusker.
- [00:00:17.386]I met Glenn 52 years ago at the University
- [00:00:19.783]of Nebraska we were fraternity brothers
- [00:00:23.207]Glenn epitomized being a gentleman
- [00:00:25.741]a term we don't use much anymore he was
- [00:00:28.447]always polite, honest, ethical, moral,
- [00:00:32.878]humble, charitable. in the past 52 years
- [00:00:37.688]that I knew him I never heard a
- [00:00:39.758]cuss word from him, nor did we have an
- [00:00:43.758]argument. he was the easiest guy to
- [00:00:45.898]get along with. this huge gift,
- [00:00:49.528]that he has given to the music school, is
- [00:00:52.128]no surprise to me. he loved the arts.
- [00:00:56.498]The arts were a constant theme in his life
- [00:00:59.098]classical music in his car, to our trips
- [00:01:02.568]to the art museums in the Philadelphia
- [00:01:05.648]area. We should all try to be like Glenn.
- [00:01:09.648]As the world would be a much better place
- [00:01:12.773]Changing the name of the music school
- [00:01:14.623]will be a constant reminder how we should
- [00:01:17.703]all lead our lives, Glenn was a very
- [00:01:20.403]proud cornhusker. I want to end this
- [00:01:24.013]interview as Glenn and I ended,
- [00:01:28.150]Or as,
- [00:01:29.020]Glenn and I ended our phone conversations
- [00:01:32.801]talk to you later, Go Big Red, and the
- [00:01:36.411]proper response from a cornhusker is
- [00:01:38.271]always, Go Big Red.
