Glenn D. Gardner, 58

Glenn D. Gardner “left this world” Saturday, April 18, 2015, “to continue his journey as God planned and Christ promised.”

“Then Jesus said ... Go! It will be done just as you believed it would.” Matthew 8:13.

Glenn considered himself a “working man” but possessed knowledge, abilities and a character that provided over 58 years of amazing experiences and opportunities to love and mentor dear friends and family members too numerous to mention. 

Yet Glenn felt this description by Nicholas Sparks was more appropriate: “I am nothing special, of this I am sure. I am a common man with common thoughts and I’ve led a common life. There are no monuments dedicated to me and my name will soon be forgotten, but I’ve loved another with all my heart and soul, and to me, this has always been enough.” 

His wife Kelly Apgar is honored to follow Glenn’s lead on her journey in this world and for eternity, remaining faithful to God’s plan and Christ’s promise. 

Glenn lived in accordance to Galatians 5:22-23 — “The fruit of the Spirit is love manifested in joy (love’s strength), peace (love’s security), patience (love’s endurance), kindness (love’s conduct), goodness (love’s character), faithfulness (love’s confidence), gentleness (love’s humility) and self-control (love’s victory). Against such things there is no law.”

As per Glenn’s wishes there will be no funeral or memorial service. 

If you desire to honor his journey, please consider a donation to the charity or organization of your choice. 

Johnson-Gloschat Funeral Home and Crematory is caring for the Gardner family.
