Absolutely use it!!!! It came with the house. Nothing to break really because there are no electronics. The "technology" of heavy cast iron "starfish" burners is still found today on stupidly expensive BBQs. Have to light the burners on this one with a "fire stick" of some nature. Looks like there was probably originally a pilot that would light any burner you turned on but that has been removed. Can't find what it should look like or get parts. It works even when the power is out because it is propane. We mostly use the electric wall oven for baking though.
I gather your Glenwood was not similar to this?

No, mine was all wood, oleft side was fire box, top was flat iron with the round holes you could lift out, top had warming shelfs, onen dod have temperature gauge and it had a light yellow enameled finish...i actually got pretty good at baking with it. We had a hand pump for water, and heated the water on the cook stove to bathe, and everything....looking back now i realize it was the 70's and i was a hippie. .....lol

Thank you all for the prayers!
Power came back on yesterday just as we got the generator! So glad as they had just sent out text telling us Tues 11:30 pm - Wed am
We just got internet back this morning.
I can post more later but this was crazy. Really shocked at how much damage Michael caused.
I can say this-
It is imperative that your house always be immaculate and all laundry done at all times so that when a hurricane comes through life will be easier.
