Glenn was a hardworking, talented carpenter. His legacy lives on in the homes of many throughout southeast Michigan. Glenn was kind, positive, funny, loyal, strong, and deeply interested in the world around him. He will be greatly missed by many family and friends whose lives he touched and brightened. He graduated from Catholic Central in 1975, and went on to hold a number of different positions, including mailman and realtor, before settling into his love of woodworking and devoting his career to carpentry. Glenn was a loyal Detroit and University of Michigan sports fan.
Glenn was preceded in death by his parents; grandparents, Royal and Merna Reaume; and several aunts and uncles. He is survived by his daughter, Mackenzie Blaine, of Grand Rapids; two step-children, Leah (Mike) Pierce, Ryan Abaloz, and one grandson, Brady Pierce, all of Florida; the mother of his children, Terese Blaine, and his mother-in-law, Geri Jennings, of Wyandotte. He is also survived by his brother, Michael (Lori) Blaine, of Indiana, and several aunts, uncles, nieces, and nephews. A celebration of his life will take place at a later time when people can once again come together. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in his name to the St. Joseph Mercy-Chelsea Cancer Center or the Copper Nail in Grass Lake.
