Feerick Funeral Home - Shorewood Obituary

Glenn Alexander Lewis


Left us tragically after a car accident on July 3, 2019; he was born in Fox Point, Wisconsin on August 27th, 1962. Glenn was a devoted husband to Eliza (Sinclair) and beloved father of Chandler, McKenna, Hunter and Colin. The cherished brother of Robert Jr. (Cheryl), Jane (Terry) Rice, Sue (Brett) Lein, and David (Maureen), he was a wonderful brother-in-law of Stuart Sinclair (Susie) and Sherry (Jim) Buchanan and dear step-son of Peg Lewis. He was preceded in death by his parents Robert and Tess Lewis and mother-in-law Mimo Birckhead and father-in-law Ian Sinclair.


Glenn was a fun-loving, kind, and selfless man who was dedicated to working hard for his family. For the past 11 years he was a Senior Business Development Executive for CleanPower. Glenn was a proud graduate of St. Eugene Grade School, Dominican High School, and UW-Oshkosh. Glenn was known by many neighbors for his passion for landscaping and helping others.


His family and friends will deeply miss Glenn’s deep laughter and his positive, easy going personality with which he handled the many challenges of life.


Glenn’s recent passion was to help build awareness for mental health issues as he traveled to the Marshfield Clinic to support building a Mental Health Wing.


A Celebration of Life will be held at Life Church, W164N11325 Squire Dr. Germantown on Saturday, July 13, 2019 at 6:30 pm.


In lieu of flowers, please make donations to The 82 Project Foundation’s Glenn Lewis Memorial Fund.

Sharing your grief at this impossible time.

Always, always too soon...

I never met the man, but spent many hours/days/nights with his wonderful daughter, McKenna, a dear friend to my own daughters, and I saw first-hand the integrity he built in his family.

Glenn died a hero, in my book. -Taken too soon, but forever surrounding us with his strong spirit, so we may carry on in faith...

Rest in sweet eternal peace, fellow traveler. Thank you for all...

Glenn A. Lewis was a wonderful son, brother, brother-in-law, uncle, employee, and friend to so many. To my sister Liza, and their 4 beautiful TNT children, he was dad. A devoted husband and father, a fun and funny uncle, a loving brother, a good friend, a hard worker... All who knew him loved him, and all who loved him will miss him every single day. Glenn epitomized the power of positive thinking. One of his many affirmations was to "Keep Keeping On" and never, ever give up. So in the dark...

My most heartfelt condolences to the Lewis Family. His smile and optimism made Cedarburg a better place!
Peace to the Lewis Family in this time of grief and reflection.

My heart cries out for you. I knew Glenn to be a devoted father.

Our neighborhood will not be the same without Glenn's warm smile, hearty laugh, and good humor. Over the years, our interactions grew from a wave and hello that could morph into talks about anything, everything, or nothing at all. He was one of those rare people who made you feel better not just for what he said or did, but for just his being himself. He will be missed!

To the Lewis family - Mike and I are so very sorry for your loss. Sue, you were our daughters' (Katie and Sarah) kindergarten teacher at St. Pius. Dave and Mo....hugs. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

Glenn will surely be missed by the Central Wisconsin Contractor's Association in Wausau. He was an advocate for our organization and never missed a monthly meeting. A joy to always talk with, and we will miss him serving up burgers and brats at the Contractor's golf outing this month.

On behalf of Sunbelt Rentals and all of us who had the privilege of working with Glenn, our condolences and prayers go out to the Lewis family. It was my pleasure to work with Glenn on many projects. He will be missed.
