Glenn Lee Lampton Jr. was born on June 16, 1983 to Mr. Glenn Lee Lampton Sr. and Mrs. Joyce Robinson Lampton in
New Orleans, Louisiana. As one of two children, Glenn was raised in New Orleans and later lived in
Waggaman, Louisiana.
Glenn accepted Jesus Christ into his life at an early age and was baptized at the Missionary Baptist Church, by the late Reverend Dr. Lawrence Gaines.Glenn was a loving and devoted father, son, brother, nephew, cousin and friend. He cherished every moment of life with his family, ensuring everyone's needs were met both mentally and physically; if he could help, he would. As a devoted father, he was very proud of his daughter. He served as her first male role model, guiding her on how to remain disciplined, and teaching her how to follow her dreams. He would always encourage her with daily words of positivity. This would serve as daily motivation for her, impacting her to become the leader and academic scholar she is today.
He enjoyed every day of his life, which included his love as a Content Creator. He was very passionate about spreading joy and laughter - creating videos that would brighten up even the darkest of days. He was unapologetically himself and being around him, there was never a dull moment. Additionally, he was also a small business entrepreneur founding and managing a logistics business that far exceeded his expectations creating jobs for the community.
Glenn was one of the kindest and most generous souls to ever grace this earth. He fought a good fight while demonstrating faith and resilience, and we all are so proud of him. This is why we choose to smile because he is no longer in pain, and we have now gained another guardian angel
in heaven. Glenn, we will love you forever, and we will make sure your legacy lives on.
