He graduated from Kalamazoo Central High School in 1975 and from Western Michigan University with a Bachelor of Science in 1982.
On July 10, 2004, Glenn married Joy Monroe at Calvary Bible Church in Kalamazoo, MI. Together, they enjoyed 20 wonderful years of marriage. Glenn would often refer to her as “The Joy of His Life”.
Glenn spent many years as a cost estimating engineer, and after retirement, Glenn enjoyed several years working at Home Depot. He was also involved in the Lockport Township Water Board for the last several years. He enjoyed serving the people of the community in this position.
Until the end of his life, he loved to read the Word of God, grow in the Lord, and talk about Jesus whenever someone needed encouragement.
Remaining to cherish his memory is his wife, Joy; their daughters Carolle Atkinson, Allison (Stephen) Ade, and Stephanie (Brian) Avery, as well as their 11 grandchildren and their first great grandchild due mid-April. Siblings; David (Terry) Wegner, Norma Jean (Ken) Lehoczky, and Paul (Karen) Wegner; Brother-in-law; Douglas (Cindy) Monroe; along with many nieces and nephews.
Glenn was preceded in death by his parents, Charles and Jeannette Wegner; his in-laws, Charles Monroe, William and Beulah Mader.
Glenn’s legacy will be his constant example of Christ in his life as well as his kindness to everyone who knew him. He was a man of integrity, and he will live on in the hearts of his wife, his family, and his friends. We find comfort in knowing Glenn’s body has been made perfect as he lives in the glory and presence of the Lord.

Glenn was a my Dad’s cousin and was about ten years ahead of me in age. I only encountered Glenn a few times in my childhood, but my lasting memory is this: Glenn was kind. A specific memory of Glenn that sticks with me is that once when I was at Glenn’s house for some family gathering, using a small telescope, Glenn projected the sun onto a piece of paper and showed me sunspots (something I did not know even existed). I was totally amazed by what he showed me and it triggered a fascination in astronomy for me that has lasted to this present day. Rest in peace dear child of God.
MAY the most high father give him Eternal peace. He did a good fight, he was such a servant Man. Rest in peace.
Absent from the body is present with the Lord. Glenn will be missed. Joy and family, you are and will be in my prayers. Hugs
Glenn is (yes, still is) my kid brother. He grew up 7 years behind me. From the time he had open heart surgery as an infant, through his 69th birthday, his life was filled with challenges. My prayer and great joy was seeing God working in and through him. Glenn’s relationship with Jesus was deep and lasting. It never wavered. No matter how hard life became, their love for each other inspired us all. It was reflected in Glenn’s gentle ways, his love for others, his easy smile and his service to the Kingdom. Along with his amazing wife, Joy, he lived life well, leaving a legacy of hope for all who knew him. I miss him, but I’ll see him soon enough. One day, God will place his hand in mine and we’ll celebrate in a place where only gladness lives. Love you, little brother!

Glenn is my cousin, I will miss his smile and his love for the Lord. One of my favorite memories was at a family reunion, Glenn, Ron and I went for a walk and to see his love for Lord is something I will never forget. We will meet again just inside the Eastern Gate. Your cousin Dena
