Alice Glenn Obituary

Alice Partels Glenn, 88, passed away Wednesday, July 31, 2013, surrounded by her family and friends in Idaho Falls.

She was born May 27, 1925, in San Francisco to Edward Partels and Valentine Tsirenstchikoff, who migrated here from Russia during the Russian Revolution. Alice graduated from Balboa High School and attended San Francisco Community College, where she earned her associate degree.

Alice married Tyree George Glenn on Dec. 19, 1945, in San Francisco and made their home in St. Anthony, and later settled in Bonneville County. Their marriage was sealed in the LDS Temple in 1962.

Her career began in St. Anthony as a legal secretary to Ralph Litton, Attorney at Law, and later she served as a medical secretary, then an administrative assistant at I.N.E.L. Upon her retirement, Alice successfully opened and managed her son's RV park at Henry's Lake in Island Park for 13 years.

Alice was a loving wife and mother and very devoted to her family and friends. She was a wonderful caregiver and was always concerned about her family. She was blessed with many friends and precious relationships that enriched her life.

Alice's passion was traveling with her husband and friends around the world. She traveled extensively throughout the United States and Canada, and Hawaii, Tahiti, New Zealand, Australia, Fiji, Hong Kong and China.

Alice is survived by her four children, Judy Anne Glenn (Dean) Halladay of Chico, Calif., Gordon Tyree (Karen) Glenn of Mesquite, Nev., Cheryl Lee Glenn (Ed Garcia) of Boise and Paul David (Marianna) Glenn of Dubois, Wyo.; 11 grandchildren; 28 great-grandchildren; and sister, Wilma Sybert of Redding, Calif.

Alice was preceded in death by her husband of 60 years, Tyree George Glenn; and her granddaughters, JanaDee Halladay Browning and Melissa Glenn Phelps.

Memorial services will be at 11 a.m. Monday, Aug. 5, at the Woodruff 3rd Ward, 2055 Coronado St. in Idaho Falls, with Bishop Bryant Hafen officiating. The family will visit with friends from 10 a.m. to 10:45 a.m. prior to services at the church. Interment will be in Ririe-Shelton Cemetery.
