GLENN McDERMOT December 5, 1925 - January 31, 2001 After a lengthy illness, Glenn went to his eternal rest on Wednesday, January 31, 2001. He was born on December 5, 1925 on the family farm. He was the youngest of three children born to J.C. and Erma McDermot. Glenn is survived by his loving wife of 55 years, Gladwyn (Gabby) his children, Karen (Allan), Doug (Joanne), Rhonda (Rob), Colleen (Joe) daughter-in-law Judy (Terry) his grandchildren, Glenn (Robyn), Faye, Lorne (Wendy), Treasure (Richard), Myles, Trevor and Jen (Karl) his great-grandchildren, Justin, Patrick and Mitchell; sisters-in-law, Shirley and Marlyn; nephew Clair and nieces, Margaret and Carol and families. He was predeceased by his son Lorne; his parents; his sisters, Bernice and Louise (Morley). Glenn had a great love for his family and enjoyed many happy family gatherings on the farm. He took great pleasure in watching his children and grandchildren grow up. One of Glenns favourite pastimes was to give everyone he met a nickname and you can be sure that, that name stuck with you. Glenn was a very gentle and soft-spoken person, who enjoyed life to the fullest. He was a man of great honour, and freely gave of himself to anyone in need. Glenn has left a lasting impression with everyone who knew him. The family wishes to express their thanks to the wonderful and caring nursing staff of the River East Personal Care Home. In accordance with Glenns wishes, cremation has taken place. The Funeral Service will be held in the Oakbank United Church on Saturday, February 3 at 10:00 a.m. with Rev.
