Glenn MacDonald Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Feb. 9, 2024.
Glenn Alan Mac Donald, also known as "BROTHER 'AL," passed away on January 19, 2024, at the age of 57 in Cleveland, Ohio. He was born on October 19, 1966, in Sterling Heights, Michigan. Al was a loving individual who had a passion for music. Known for his infectious smile and kind words, he always had a way of making those around him feel joyful. Al was a true friend, always ready to lend a helping hand.

Al is survived by his Siblings sister Lisa (Don) Trandell, Rick MacDonald, Greg (Joy) MacDonald, Sister-in-law Susan MacDonald. His nieces Shari (Brian) Hottle, Ashley Trandell, Amy (Brad) Roettger, Nephews Ian (Ashley) MacDonald, Colin MacDonald, Ryan (Samantha) MacDonald, Greg MacDonald. As well as three great-nieces and three great-nephews.

He was preceded in death by his mother, Mary Ursula MacDonald, his father, Claude Barnaby Mac Donald, and his brother Eric Claude Mac Donald.

In his free time, Al enjoyed immersing himself in music and the arts. He found solace and joy in skateboarding, which allowed him to express himself creatively. Al's zest for life was contagious, and he will be deeply missed by all who knew him.

A memorial and celebration of BROTHER AL's life will be held at the Diesel Concert Lounge in Chesterfield, Michigan, on February 25, 2024, at 5:00 pm. This gathering will be an opportunity for family and friends to come together, share stories, and remember the impact Glenn had on their lives.

Please join us in honoring BROTHER AL's memory and celebrating the life of a remarkable individual who left a lasting impression on all who had the privilege of knowing him.

I was Al's uncle and God Father and I am very sad about his passing way too early. I still remember when Al was a baby and Ursula was getting him ready for bed at the cottage in Lakeside. She took him around the room and we all kissed him on the butt. I am very impressed with the tributes I have seen from Al's friends. Love Uncle Owen.
