Glenn Robert Krouse of Westhampton died on June 12. He was 61.

Krouse was born on September 6, 1961, in Southampton to Janet and Robert Krouse.

He was a loving and caring person who touched many lives and will be deeply missed, his family said. “Rest in peace, Glenn. You will forever be remembered as a loving and caring person who touched many lives,” his family said.

Krouse was always a kid at heart and quite a prankster, his family said. He loved all animals, both domesticated and wild, and the backyard was his sanctuary for all wildlife.

He was an avid cook and took great pride in cooking for family and friends. Boating, clamming, crabbing, and hunting were his favorite activities outside.

Krouse worked for Asplundh Construction in Yaphank for 36 years. His job and coworkers were like family, and he cherished his extended family at IBEW Local 1049.

He is survived by his maternal aunt, Helen Palmer; his sister, Judy Glendenning and her husband, Craig Glendenning; his significant other, Brenda Williams; his goddaughter, Rachel Glendenning; and three nephews. He was predeceased by his parents, Janet and Robert Krouse; his brothers, Harry S. Krouse and David S. Krouse; and his son, Stephen R. Krouse.

In lieu of flowers, contributions can be made to the Quogue Wildlife Refuge (quoguewildliferefuge.org) in his memory.

Cleaning Out

There is no setting on binoculars that works in the fog — everything in the distance remains indistinct, and that is fine. Here, the low place, called Sagg Swamp, begins a nearly uninterrupted corridor of unbuilt-upon land: wetlands, ponds and kettleholes; the Long Pond Greenbelt runs for miles to the old harbor. Today, contained, the only fog is there. It rises up from the dark muck to smudge the damp foliage with its dreamy, silver light. So, above, as the crow flies, the air is tinted between gold and pink. Fog is a reoccurring theme, because it reveals a sense ... by Marilee Foster

Gaudy October is gone. The November landscape is muted colors, falling leaves and skeletal branches. The month opens with reminders of death.

Although the race was predicted to be tight, Sherrill won by a large margin. This and other successful Democratic contests are being ... by Karl Grossman
