Glenn Allen Young
Glenn Allen Young
Glenn Allen Young, age 66, escaped drastic economic inflation and years of not paying taxes (I hope you’re not reading this IRS) on January 30, 2022.
He was world-renowned for his love of food and passion for martial arts, along with anything you can shoot with, cut with, or blow up. As a comical display of his patience for all situations, Glenn often quoted that “he may be polish but he wasn’t rushin’” when someone (his children) would arrive fashionably late. Throughout his life Glenn made an honest living helping to rehabilitate others as a PTA. He was loved by many co-workers and friends alike. He was never a very sentimental man, but he would like everyone who may have owed him money or a whiskey to know, when their time comes, that he will likely be found at heaven’s local shooting range.
To his family: mother, Barbra Young; sisters, Grace Pruett Frick and Romona Wright; many beloved nieces and nephews; sons, Grant Young and Roman Young; daughter, Hannah Young (Gleason); grandchildren, Miyah Bridges, Jensen Davis, Gaston Young, August Gleason, Yuri Davis, Marcella Davis, and Willow Young; he leaves behind a heck of a lot of Backwoodsman magazines. They have no idea what to do with them.
Glenn is preceded in death by his right leg Achilles tendon, his father, Glendel Young, brother Frank Young, and son, Shane Young.
May he live on in our hearts forever guiding, forever patient, forever teaching.
A Celebration of Life service will be held from 4:30 p.m. to 9:00 p.m., Friday, February 11, 2022, at the Historic Post Office Event Center.

We knew Glenn as “The Brick Wall”…. I’m sure he had many nicknames to those who loved him. This man was my favorite sparring partner! We grew together through our bond of Eskrima. Through Glenn I knew aLot of family. I love all y’all.

Grace, Mona, family and friends,
I knew of Glenn through PT specialist and many places around WP over the years, he was also nice and I can hear him actually saying many of the these things and laughing about them. He always had a quiet and serious side about him too, when it came to the care and rehabilitation of his patients, that was number 1 with him. May you each remember the goodness that he added to the world.

I haven’t seen Glenn for many years. Our paths crossed for a portion of time and I didn’t get to know him that well. What I DO remember is that every single encounter we shared was enveloped in his extreme kindness and wickedly sharp sense of humor. He was kind to me and addressed me as a soul, not simply a human. What an amazing legacy this sacred soul leaves behind!
Warmest blessings of love and peace to all of you.
