Glenn was born June 5, 1927 in Oil City, Louisiana. He was the youngest son of Herbert and Alpha Winn. His siblings were Vernon Winn, Donald Winn and Margaret Winn Love. He grew up in Marshall, Texas.

Glenn met the love of his life, Mae Evelyn Dominey, while they were students at East Texas Baptist College. They married on April 29, 1948. Glenn and Mae had three children, Glenn Loren Winn, Jr. and Deirdre Elise Winn both who preceded him in death and Julie Winn Hare of Conroe, Texas.

Before his death Glenn Jr. met and married Patsy Haneline. She quickly became a part of the Winn family as well as her daughters, Kelly Haneline Cook and Jody Haneline Lonergan.

Julie married Bobby Hare. They have two sons, Zachary Winn Hare of New Hampshire and Matthew Blake Hare who attends Sam Houston State in Huntsville, Texas.

After marrying, while Mae was completing college, Glenn coached and taught school at Elysian Fields High School. He continued his education at Sam Houston State University, The University of Houston and Southern Mississippi University.

Glenn left education for a short period of time working in personnel for Freeport Sulphur Company in Louisiana.

Glenn’s heart was always in education and he returned to that profession as a counselor.

Coming to Conroe High School was truly a dream come true. He started the counseling program at Conroe High School and was the first counselor in the Conroe Independent School District. He later served as Associate Principal at Conroe High in Guidance and Counseling. He was able to achieve the goals he had set for himself when he retired in 1989.

He was a sweet husband and father but the title he loved best was “Paw Paw.”
