Glen was born in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. He spent his elementary years in Brusly, LA. His family then moved to Baton Rouge where Glen attended and graduated from Robert E. Lee High School.

For the last 20 years, he worked in Service at the Brian Harris Porsche Dealership. Glen was a man of God and follower of Jesus Christ. He grew in his faith throughout the years even as he struggled with many health problems. He loved Jennifer and Alaina, the rest of his family and friends and enjoyed times of getting together and visiting. Glen also loved his work and got great fulfillment out of dropping everything and coming to the aid of someone in need of help whether it be an automotive problem or moving furniture.

He loved playing cards, was a cross country runner, an excellent waterskier and so enjoyed playing basketball whenever he got the chance.
