Glen
On Sunday, 3-25-18, the Good Lord decided he needed Glen Ghilotti in Heaven. It is hard for us to understand, since it seemed obvious that Glen was doing so much good here amongst us. Some things just are not for us to understand.
Apparently, Glen had hopped into the cab of a brand-new roll off Team Ghilotti truck, and headed off to the deep south to purchase and bring back another addition to his “railroad” project at Glenhill Farm and Garden. On the way back to Petaluma, in Oklahoma, Glen passed away of natural causes Sunday morning.
Our hearts and prayers go out to Genevieve. Also, our condolences to the entire extended family, and the family of workers at Team Ghilotti. Glen’s children are in our hearts as well-Jennifer, Kevin, Jennilee,Tina and Tom
It is rare that one person can leave such a mark on so many. Glen’s life and work can certainly be looked at as an extension of his dad, Babe’s life in many ways. All that Glen did was wrapped up in giving back to his family, employees, and community. To Glen’s brothers and sister, we share your loss and will enjoy our memories of Glen.
There is some solace for those of us that are left in knowing that Glen had unconditional love in his heart for his wife and family, and he left us doing what he loves to do.
I personally go back some 20 years in my relationship with Glen. I never saw a harder worker, or a more caring individual that gave so generously to his community and his industry. Glen loved, cared, gave, shared, and enjoyed all that he had with all of us.
Rest in Peace Glen.
That’s All Folks-
John
