Darrell Richard "Hut" Glass, 84, passed away peacefully at home ready to meet Jesus on Tuesday, August 8, 2023.

Born on September 8, 1938 to the late Erma (Johns) Glass and Luther Glass. He is preceded in death by his daughter, Joan Sayler; brother, Joseph Glass and sister, Myra (Sissy) Nolan.

Hut was a veteran of the US Army and retired from PPG. He was a handyman and builder throughout his life. If you drove anywhere with him he would tell you that he "put a porch on that house there and redid a bathroom in this one, and laid that brick, and I'm not a bricklayer!"

He had a love of baseball his whole life. Playing as a young man and coaching Little League before he had kids himself.

Hut's joy for the outdoors was well known. He was an avid hunter since he was a kid, enjoyed the woods, fishing and later in life had a passion for birds. He was a member of the Barrelville Outdoor Club through the years and supported their missions in the community.

Hut was a gracious man. Giving of himself without expecting anything in return. He was a staple not only to his family but to his neighbors, church and community. His love and devotion caring for his wife Mary Sue, of almost 57 years is an inspiration to all who witnessed it. His love for the Lord and commitment to being a living witness of faith was felt by all. His church, the Apostolic Lighthouse in Corriganville was a place of peace for Hut especially in these later years.

Surviving are his wife, Mary Sue (Wilhelm) Glass; daughter, Carla Geary and husband Brian; son, Rick Glass and wife Vicky; grandchildren, Walker Geary and wife Ally, Paige Geary and Fiancé Brad Becraft, Claire Geary and Fiancé Nathan Darnell, Laken Glass and fiancé Greg Nehls , McKenzie Glass and boyfriend Weston Hilliard; great grand daughter, Stevie Joan Darnell; great grand son, Woodson Bradford Becraft due in three weeks; brothers, Charles (Sonny) Glass and wife Mary, James Glass and wife Doris; best friends, Howard (Osie) Bridges, Doug Hewitt, Brandt and Taira Bridges and family.

The neighbors in Sunnyside that took special care and looked out for Hut and Mary Sue- Ronnie Lynn, John and Faye Jones, Cindy and Danny Blank, Cindy Burly, Doug Felkner and his young helper Brice.
