Glenn Alexander

June 25, 1928 — February 3, 2024

ALEXANDER – Glenn, 95, Summerhill, longtime resident of Mineral Point; went to be with the Lord, February 3, 2024.

Born June 25, 1928, in Mineral Point, son of Ralph and Bertha (Ford) Alexander. Preceded in death by parents; beloved wife of 71 years, Agnes (Lynch), who died December 4, 2020; sons, John and Charles; grandson, Scott Brewer; sister, Hazel Jones; brother, Albert; and special cousin, Clifford Alexander.  

Survived by daughters, Helen, wife of Ronald Hebden; and Glenna, wife of Gene Brewer; son, Thomas, married to Theresa (Natcher); daughter-in-law, Kathy (Fabo) Alexander; grandchildren, Kristi, Dana, Steven, Meagan, and Jonathan; ten great-grandchildren. 

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.
