MORRISTOWN, N.J. – Even if you donated a penny to Eric ‘Fluffy’ Glover, he loves you and says “God bless you.”
In a new video filmed by morristowngreen.com, Glover thanks just about everyone he can think of for contributing to the GoFundMe campaign that delivered more than $60,000 to his bank account.
The fundraiser was started by Lidia Udrija, who knew Glover from his years at the AMC movie theater as the “ticket taker guy” who delighted the masses with his warm welcomes and funny noises.
