Glenn worked as a Lumber Salesman and business partner with Hellmann Lumber in Walton, working in the lumber business for over 30 years; ultimately retiring in January of 2022.

Glenn (Mr. V) was humble, he was kind, he was stern, he was firm, he was a man of his word, and he was respected. His legacy was one of service and honesty; and always saving room for a smart alec comment or two. He was a skillful woodworker, using his talents to provide for anyone in need. He donated countless hours of his time to working with students, helping build props for school, supplying material for their school community service projects, or teaching them tricks of the trade.
