GLENN "GLENSKI" MATKIN
November 6, 1957 - April 29, 1995
Miami resident and former New Orleanian, Glenn Matkin had a heart attack at the Jazz Festival on the afternoon of Saturday, April 29th and later passed away enroute to Mercy Hospital.
My last contact with Glenn is walking over to Terrance Simien where he
was happily smiling and two-stepping with a few H.O.A. ladies. I left for the
Beau Jocque show at the opposite end of the Fairgrounds where we were to meet
later. When I picture Glenn, I will always see him with a great big warm
smile.
A memorial was held for Glenski on the evening of Tuesday, May 2nd at the Howlin' Wolf on South Peters Street.
"A true friend, always having a
smile and a hug for everyone
who
has had the privilege of
knowing 'Skiman'.
Our memories of 'Glenski' will
always bring a warm smile to
all of
us.
You'll always be in our hearts.
Steve
