Glenn was a larger than life character, who always put his children, grandchildren, family, and friends before all else. His greatest joy and source of pride came from watching his children Tara, Michelle, and Mike grow and raise families. He loved all of his grandchildren more than anything, and he spent his life supporting all of them in life, sports, school, plays, and all other activities. Grandpa Glenn (aka “Big Dog”) loved his family unconditionally. He was a friend, protector, confidant, and role model for all his grandchildren, as well as for many others.

Glenn was a 3rd generation member of Sheet Metal Workers Local 268. He impacted countless people throughout his life, coaching baseball and softball, supporting countless charities, and spending time with Little Devils friends and family. He spent his free time with his beloved golf family and friends at the Belleville YMCA.
He was known and loved by many. His presence and laughter filled the room, no matter how large. Adults and kids were drawn to his one of a kind personality. He saved the best of everything for everyone else, especially his family. He will be missed greatly, but his selfless actions and caring heart will be carried on by all he touched.

To Mike, Michelle and Tara, please accept my sincere condolences. May all your memories fill the hole in your heart.

I recall growing up with Glenn on the Khoury League baseball diamonds around the Belleville area. Not only was he a good player himself but always supported his teammates. My thoughts and prayers go out to Glenns Family.

I remember Glenn the most from the one year we played baseball together on Barney (Bryan’s dad) Hoffman’s team. At that time I wanted to only play catcher, but Barney wanted Glenn to play catcher so I was moved to the outfield. All in all that made us a better team. It gave us a needed good bat in the lineup with Glenn. Late in the season I was called on to do some pitching and Glenn and I had a good time with my junk messing with batters heads. RIP Glenn.

Glenn was just a good man. Rock solid. Nothing but good memories. A lot of those memories revolve around softball. And I can almost hear that awesome laugh now. RIP Glenn.
