Glenn was born February 24, 1931 in Stoughton and moved to Weyburn where he met and married Jeanette on July 8, 1949. Together they built a busy and fulfilled life in this city. Glenn had numerous interests and passions. One of his greatest passions was his work at the Weyburn Mental Hospital. His career as a Psych nurse started in 1949 and lasted 40 years where many of his co-workers became life-long friends. Along with work at the hospital, he also pursued another career- farming. His love for the farm and the land lasted his whole life.

It was well known to family and friends that Glenn had a great love and talent for sports. He played hockey, ball and especially loved to curl, enjoying many bonspiels in Weyburn and surrounding towns. He passed this passion of sports onto his children through coaching countless games and watching in the stands as their biggest fan. Many cherished times were spend on trips to the Minneapolis ball park, Dunedin ball park, Brier events and of course, Taylor Field.

Glenn's greatest love was for his family. In spite of shift work and farm work in his younger years, he managed to make time for his large and growing family. Family celebrations were of great importance and seldom missed.

Glenn was grateful for his full and blessed life and his family and friends were blessed to share that life with him.

A Graveside Service was held on Friday, May 6, 2022 at 1:00 PM at Hillcrest Cemetery, Weyburn, Saskatchewan and a Funeral Lunch & Fellowship followed at Knox Hall from 2:00 ~ 4:00 PM.
