It is with the heaviest of hearts that we announce the passing of William “Billy” Robert Stanley Glenn on Sunday, May 16, 2021 in St. Joseph’s Hospital.
Bill's greatest pride was his family. We always came first. Nothing made him happier than spending all of his time with his wife, children, son-in-law and the light of his eyes, his two special grandchildren.
Bill was most proud of his presidency at P.A.C.C. (1993-1995). His favourite curling bonspiel was the Abitibi Bonspiel, which he won the “A” event five times and enjoyed the Sault Ste. Marie gang that called him “Chief”.
Obonga Lake was Bill's prideful camp which he enjoyed many fishing trips with family and his two best friends Brian Larson and Terry Davis. He always enjoyed his happy hour drinking O.V.’s with his buddies Gary, Kim and Carol Barry. Bill and Anna also enjoyed many destination vacations with their very special travel buddies.
Bill's many years of work were enjoyed and many friendships gained at Abitibi Mill (Thunder Bay Division), Mission Mill and his very special retirement job at D.F.C. High School.
Bill is lovingly survived by the love of his life for 47 years Anna, son Johnny, daughter Christie (Brad) Brennan, grandson Braden and granddaughter Callie, sister Marilyn and brothers Doug and David. Also survived by many sisters-in-law, brothers-in-law, nieces and nephews and many lifelong friends.
Bill was predeceased by father Jack “John” Glenn, mother Mary Glenn and step-mother Wilma Glenn.
We would like to take this time to thank Dr. Valente, Dr. McLean, Dr. Simpson and Dr. Ward. Thank you to Bill's very special home care nurse Georgette for all of your care and compassion. Thank you to Northern Respiratory, Medi Gas, 1A Nurses Erin and Kathleen, Hospice Nurses Nadia, Victoria and Lily for all the comfort and care for Bill.
Due to current restrictions, a celebration of Bill's life will be held at a later date. In lieu of flowers, donations to the Heart and Stroke foundation and the Northern Cancer Society would be appreciated. Online condolences may be made at www.sargentandson.com.
