He was a founding member of Wesleyan Holiness Church, Portage, where he served in many of their ministries with faith, hope, and love. Glenn was a skilled mechanic, who could fix almost anything. Over the years, he worked for E.L. Jones Dodge, Ebensburg Auto Auction, Mainline News, and Gearhart’s. He lived life by a code of honesty and truth that was always tempered by a compassionate understanding for others. The clarity of his faith, his patience, and sense of loyalty challenged us to always be better. His warmth, his laughter, his strength will certainly live on in all who knew and loved him.
