Glenn M. Gallo passed away on Sunday, September 13, 2020. He was 69 years old. He was the loving father of Jessica Lynn Gallo; cherished brother of Lynn Marie Zahn; and devoted Uncle of Edwin J. Gallo, Salvador A. Zahn, and Jeremy P. Zahn. He was preceded in death by his beloved parents, the late Enola Marie Arceneaux Gallo and the late Salvador Gallo. Glenn was a graduate of Chalmette High School, class of 1970. After graduation, he enlisted in the Louisiana National Guard, where he proudly served in the 1st Battalion, 141st Field Artillery (Washington Artillery). Following his military service, Glenn found success as a welder but always looked back fondly on the many years spent farming with his father. He was an avid outdoorsman and was never happier than when fishing, hunting, or barbequing. He was loved deeply by his family and friends, and his memory will live on in their hearts forever.
