    I've wondered this myself. I read somewhere that Mr. Cedar abandoned the family. Did he ever contact Glenn? Did Glenn ever try to find him? Things we'll probably never know.

    And Glenn spoke french? As I used to be semi - fluent in French (I'm a bit rusty these days, lol), I find that immensely cool.

    I'd love to see a picture of 3 year old Glenn on his parent's honeymoon...I bet he was adorable!

    I think if he had gone we would have seen him in one of the photos. I would hardly call his father 'extended' even though he's not the biological father. Same with the brothers. There were no photos of them to my knowledge.

    And NKIT I have absolutely no clue whether Glenn ever knew his biological father, but I doubt it.

    Yes, I agree I guess I was thinking more in terms of spouse and children. I never really looked to see if there were other pics but I remember seeing one that I believe may have included more family members. I could be mistaken.

    Dawn - I saw one picture in the KCH thread of Cindy and the kids with Tommy Nixon and his other "Eagles" family. I did not see any pictures of his brothers. If they went, maybe they did not want to be photographed.

    There was one photo a neighbor posted of Glenn in what appeared to be a backyard. He was with some kids(holding one of them) and a man. I thought he kind of looked like the man. I forget what the thread was titled but it was posted about two years ago. The neighbor was a friend of his youngest brother Matt.

    Ok that may be the one I am thinking of I will have to take a look and see if that's the one I remember seeing. Thanks NKIT!

    Is this it?

    Thanks for posting Pippin. This is all interesting especially that he might've spoken French.

    Yes that's the picture. The 6'2'' Deacon towers over everyone in the picture.
    Also, the thread I am talking about where a friend of his brother Matt put up a picture is titled "The Third Brother" under the Glenn Frey Thread. I think it's on page 4. It has the picture I am talking about.

    Two of the older men are Tommy Nixon & Jerry Vaccarino but I have forgotten who the other man is.

    It wouldn't surprise me if Glenn spoke a little French. And if he took a foreign language in high school, I wouldn't take French off the list. You know, guys who speak French attract the ladies... LOL.
