Glenn Shaffer Obituary

Glenn Eugene Shaffer, 58, of Kecksburg, died Monday, Nov. 3, 2025. He was born Sept. 12, 1967, in Mt. Pleasant, the only son and youngest child of the late Merle E. Shaffer and Joyce M. (Kirchner) Shaffer. Glenn was a graduate of Mount Pleasant High School and Triangle Tech, where he earned an associate degree in mechanical drafting and design. He enjoyed riding motorcycles and was an active member of several biking groups. A classic rock fan, Glenn loved attending live concerts with his friends and daughters. He was a jokester who took joy in making people laugh. Glenn was also a longtime member of the Norvelt and South Connellsville VFD Clubs. He was a friend to many and a loving father to his daughters, who are devastated by his passing. In addition to his parents, Glenn was preceded in death by his sisters, Denise L. Shaffer and Cynthia L. Konopka. He was the last surviving member of his family. Glenn is survived by his loving family: daughters, Kayla B. (William) Markle, of S. Connellsville, and Kallie K. (Joshua) Lucas, of Norvelt; his former wife and mother of his daughters, Tina L. (Jeff) Halfhill, of Connellsville; brother-in-law, Joseph Konopka, of Kecksburg; nieces, Krystin (Kyle) Berntsen, Michele (Dave) Nalepa, and Theresa (Michael) Stiltenpole; great-nieces, Rachel Pezzano, Cheyenne Bruce, and Kelsey Berntsen; and great-nephew, Kayden Berntsen. Family and friends will be received from 2 to 4 and 6 to 8 p.m. Friday, Nov. 7, 2025, in the HOFFER WILT FUNERAL HOME, 2245 Mount Pleasant Road, Norvelt, PA 15674, where services will be held by Rev.
