Wife problems

the obit shows wife as Evelyn Miller. and married from 1949 until death.. I submit that something in wrong with our entry.

Maybe the wife Evelyn m Hansen did not exist, or was Evelyn Miller at one time married to a Hansen? --Kristy 15:10, 27 October 2008 (EDT)

In a genealogy book compiled by Faye Steele Mangus, it shows that Glenn was married to (1) Evelyn M. Hansen in November of 1944, and (2) Evelyn A. Miller on May 14, 1949. Information is given about Evelyn Miller's birth date, place of birth. The only reliable information tying Evelyn M. Hansen to Glenn is that they had a child together: Kenneth E. Folk (Born September 1, 1945, died December 29, 2016.) In Kenneth's obituary, it mention's his mother's most current married name is Evelyn Kimball.
