Robert Glenn Obituary
He is survived by his wife of almost 50 years, Linda Easton Glenn; his two daughters, Courtney Glenn of Tecumseh and Lindsay Ann Glenn Clark (Nick Clark) of Ypsilanti; the "light of his life" his granddaughter, Farrah; and his two "grand doggers," Alvin and Mister.
Bob was born and raised in Tecumseh, and his soul will always remain in this town. He taught history and driver's education for over 30 years at THS and had a love of collecting and tinkering with antique cars, tractors and engines. He was a devoted Mason and Shriner who was passionate about helping children. Anyone who knows Bob was probably solicited at one time or another to join the Shrine with him! He had a heart of gold and would do anything he could for family, friends and neighbors. Bob will be sorely missed.
We will be holding a gathering for Bob, announced at a later date. In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation to Bob's passion, the Shrine Children's Hospital.
American Cremation Events assisted the family with arrangements.

I had Mr. Glenn as a History teacher at Tecumseh High School way back in the late 70's. He is one of a handful of teachers I remember because of his dry sense of humor. My prayers go out to both family and friends.

I was fortunate to have Mr. Glenn for World History and one long summer of driver's training. He taught both with the necessary sense of humor. My thoughts and prayers are with Mrs. Glenn and their family.

I've known Bob most of my life as a teacher and family friend, and last spoke with him when he was checking in on my father who had a health scare a year ago. Many times over the years, he'd tell our family about about the next project he was restoring. Tecumseh is a better place because of the many things he did for the community.

Dear Linda and family,
We were so sorry to read about Bob's passing.
We didn't see him often but when we did he liked to laugh and tell
stories about the family.
Please know that we are praying for comfort at this time.
As his obituary reads, "he will be missed"
Best wishes, Terry and Terri Butler
