Kenneth Glantz Obituary

Glantz

Kenneth age 77,of Brighton, formerly of Canton and Warren, passed away peacefully at home Tuesday night, September 5, in the loving care of his devoted wife of 22 years, Marilyn, daughter Deborah (Adam) Forester, and son Christopher (Teresa) Glantz, after a long, valiant battle with heart failure and other medical issues.

Ken was a wonderful husband and loving father to his daughter and son. He is also survived by 2 granddaughters Shaina (Marco) Pagni and Shelby (Jake) Smallwood, and by his sister Dolores Kmetz, brother Ron (Betty), many nieces, nephews, extended family and 'Dad' to special friends among many others.

Ken never lost his wonderful sense of humor even through his many medical issues, often catching us off guard. Ken was smart, way beyond "handy" - boats, cars, electrical, plumbing, renovations and could figure out, repair or rebuild anything. He enjoyed life and loved his family, hunting, fishing, boating and living on the lake.

A Celebration of Ken's life will be held September 23.
