He was preceded in death by his parents; and son, Forrest.

Glenn is survived by his wife of 48 years, Jan (Sipes), son Luther (Luke), granddaughters Maria and Hailey, grandson Jordon, brother Joel (Kay), sisters Karin Robbins and Barbra (Michael) Songer, aunt Betty Eskola and family, nephews Andy (Michelle) Robbins, Jordan (Sarah) and Grant (Krissy) Johnson, Max (Hannah) Songer, niece Andi Songer, his cousins, great-nieces and a great-nephew.
