I am heartbroken to learn of Glenn’s passing. He blended the perfect amount of experience, humor, facts, and fear when teaching our oldest to drive. He gave this scared momma the confidence to cut the cord and trust her oldest on the road. He left an indelible imprint on our family, and we’re so sad our other sons won’t have the privilege of learning from Glenn. Our thoughts and prayers are with your family. He will be truly missed. ❤️ 

We are so saddened to hear this news. Glenn taught all three of our children to drive. He really was a one-of-a-kind person. So engaging with the teenagers, telling stories of his days as a police officer and keeping these kids engaged. He was an excellent teacher… Showing them things about the road that I would’ve never even thought of. Teaching them respect and safety.  And teaching them how to just relax and have fun. I don’t know how he did it… Teaching so many people how to drive and always keeping his cool. We will miss you, Glenn! You lived a life to be proud of, touching so many people.

Glen was such a wonderful man. He taught all 3 of my kids to drive and they adored him, especially my youngest Grant.  They had a special bond and had so much fun when they went driving this past Spring.  He will be missed by so many.  Blessings to his family.  


Glen taught both of my boys how to drive. It gave me peace of mind knowing they had the best instructions!  Glen was awesome and will be greatly missed.  I’m thankful we had an opportunity to get to know him!  Many prayers to his family🙏

Officer Glenn was supposed to give my daughter her final driving lesson this morning. We were absolutely heartbroken to learn of his passing. Thank you officer Glenn for the hilarious stories and for teaching my daughter how to safely drive. You were a great person who will be missed greatly. I know you would be proud to know that another one of your students passed their driver’s exam today! 

Check out this score — all because of Glenn! May he Rest In Peace and may he continue to watch over his many, many drivers.

This is the night Glen showed up at our house after learning Conner had a car accident. Glen always went above and beyond for his students. We had many discussions over coffee discussing how different Glen said our boys are. Sending hugs to the entire family. We will keep you in our thoughts and prayers.

We have so many fond memories. Glen taught 2 of our 3 boys how to drive.  I will never forget him showing up at 9:30pm to sit with our oldest because word got to Glen he had an car accident and hit a mailbox. Glen sat with Conner and went through all the stupid mistakes leading up to the accident. He was one of a kind and we are sadden he will not be there to teach our 14 year old. He had a great connection with these young kids. You will be missed 

Glenn taught me everything I knew about driving. I had just taken my test with him about 2 weeks ago. He was so happy when I passed.  Glenn was such an amazing person, always making me laugh. I’m so glad that I got to know him. Glenn taught me so many amazing things that I will be sure to use in the future. Thank you Glenn for teaching me everything about driving. I owe it all to you. Rest in peace, Glenn ❤️❤️

Glenn recently taught my daughter how to drive.  We loved him and loved to hear all of his stories.  He was a very kind, loving and patient man.  Our deepest sympathies to his family.  He will be missed.
