Glenn Peirson died much too soon, stricken by a fast-spreading sinus cancer and leaving our world in November 2009 at 44. Glenn, as a friend described him, was a true Renaissance man, a man of compassion, intellect and deep passion.
His battle with The Beast extended for three torturous, draining years. It killed Glenn Peirson, but it did not defeat him.

And, above all, all human beings come with a destiny to be uncovered and lived and a monumental capacity to love.
