Glenn E. Mark Sr.

Warren – Glenn E. Mark Sr., 97, of Warren passed away on Saturday evening, November 8, 2025 at St. Joseph Hospital surrounded by his family.
Glenn was born on March 31, 1928 in Canton, Ohio, a son of Walter and Minnie Mark. He was a 1946 graduate of Canton South High School and joined the National Guard following graduation. In 1950, he was called from inactive duty by the United States Army where he served in the 8579th Advancement Unit. Earning the rank of Corporal, Glenn was awarded the Korean Service Medal with two campaign stars and an honorable discharge for his service.
Upon returning home, Glenn married the love of his life, his Bride, Betty Hone, in 1952. They moved to Warren in 1955, where they raised five children.
Glenn was a familiar face in the local automotive community, earning the respect of his colleagues and customers alike. Known for his quiet demeanor and genuine care for people, Glenn had a gift for making everyone feel like family-whether they were buying their first car or their fifth. In 1990, after 30 years of hard work and long hours, Glenn retired from Lou Wollham Chevrolet.
Outside of work, Glenn was a 50 year member of Old Erie Number 3 Masonic Lodge. He was also a dedicated member of First United Church of Christ, where he served as President of Consistory and was a Deacon Emeritus.
There was no doubt that Glenn's pride and joy was his family. He loved and cherished time spent with those he loved, especially his grandchildren. Glenn will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved him.
Glenn will always be remembered by his children, Lori (Lloyd) Sprockett of Meridian, Mississippi, Kay (Mark) Leiby with whom he made his home, Skip (Donna) Mark, Carol (John) Neff, and Rob (Monique) Mark all of Warren, OH; ten grandchildren, Andrew Sprockett, Caroline (Brad) Shuler, Gretchen Leiby, Emily (Lee) Hartman, Chris (Lauren) Leiby, Jenna (Ken) Bryant, Tricia (Sean) Unger, Hannah (Ben) Vincent, Adam Mark (fiancée Kayla Medzie) and Nicholas Mark; eight great grandchildren, Josephine, J.B., Henrietta, Sullivan, Everly, Edison, Summit and Remi and one great granddaughter on the way. He is also survived by a sister, Carrie Barlow of Canton.
Besides his parents, Glenn was preceded in death by his Bride of 69 years, Betty (Hone) Mark who passed in 2021 and six siblings.
