Glenn and Carolyn dated for a few years before deciding to get married on August 22, 1981. They lived in Winnipeg for 15 years before deciding to move to Oakbank where they have made their home. During their married life together, they had two beautiful children, Peter and Kayleigh, both of whom were Glenn's pride and joy. His wife and children were the most important aspect of his life.
