John C. Glenn, 84, of Hurffville, New Jersey departed this life April 26, 2019 surrounded by his family. John was predeceased by his wife Kate. He is survived by his children Jon (Kathie), Linda Van Hest, Shaun, and Katie (Matthew) Whitaker. John was “Pop” to eleven grandchildren and seven great grandchildren.

John was a plasterer by trade as well as a union carpenter, retiring from his third career delivering dish gardens for a local business at the age of 80. He was always a farmer at heart.

Services are private just the way John wanted because “ if you didn’t come see me while I was alive you don’t need to come look at me when I am dead.”

In lieu of flowers the greatest tribute would be a donation in his name to St. Jude Children’s Hospital or a charity of your choice.

We’re gonna miss him ... a good man who headed a great family. He had an incredible sense of humor.... he sent me a brick in a paper bag ...by special courier....(Linda) when I mentioned I had locked my keys in my car. I still laugh at that.

A Great Person

May 1, 2019

I knew him as "Linda's Dad", and whenever I saw him, he was usually in his garden, which was a spectacular sight.  He was always good company and he had a great sense of humor, and a great smile.  You will be sorely missed.  May you rest in peace.
