Glenn owned Wilcox Garage in Damascus, PA., and served the community for many decades. He was a member of Cochecton Fire Co. for 18 years. Glenn was a passionate chef and host to many wonderful parties at his ranch, always keeping the family recipes a secret! He had a love of the outdoors, vintage cars, boating and swimming on Lake Wallenpaupack, trips in the motor home, and cruising around on his Harley-Davidson.
Glenn was one of a kind and will be greatly missed by all that had the pleasure of knowing him. He will be remembered for his larger-than-life sense of humor, grandma kisses, and the nicknames he assigned to everyone. He will be especially missed for his big hugs- if you ever received one, you’d understand.
Glenn is preceded in death by his parents, stepson Roger Rave, and three grandchildren, Reese, Dominick, and Savannah.
As per his request a private celebration of his life for his family will be held following cremation. Arrangements by Hessling Funeral Home, Inc., 428 Main St. Honesdale.
