Glenn E. Seiler, passed away peacefully Friday, May 17, 2024, at Brookline Village. He was the oldest male of his family lineage.
Born Dec. 10, 1931, to Paul K. and Zelda M. (Longacre) Seiler in Millerstown, he is survived by sons, Darwin (Kathy) of Blue Ridge Summit, Pa., Steven (Eleanor) of Pineville N.C., and Dennis (Tamra) of Black Log, Pa.; grandchildren, Greg (Angela) of Kingsland Ga., Angie (Kaiser) Jamil of Charlotte N.C., Katie (David) Larsen of Polk City, I.A., and J Dwight (Emily) Seiler of Waukee, I.A.; great-grandchildren, Ariana Seiler, Heidi and Hans Larsen, and Margot Jamil; siblings, Paul (Daisy) Seiler of Mifflin, Marian (Bill) Zeiders, of McAlisterville, Kay Sheaffer, of Shamokin Dam; sister-in-law, Treva Seiler of McAlisterville; many nieces and nephews; and special friend, Rose Marie Olmstead of North Bennington V.T.
Glenn was preceded in death by his wife, of 57 years, Beula M. (Swartz). They met in Beula's family restaurant in Richfield, and moved to Norfolk, V.A. while Glenn served in the Navy after his high school graduation. They raised their family in Reedsville, later moving to Middleburg, then retired to Homosassa, Fla. for many decades.
Glenn was proud of his 30 plus years as a long distance truck driver (he could give you detailed directions to wherever you wanted to go before GPS!), his decade of service for Perry-West Perry Elementary School's maintenance, being a veteran, and seeing his sons attain college degrees.
He enjoyed many days hunting, playing cards and gathering with family and friends at Lone Pine Camp near Whipple's Dam, which he constructed with his friends in 1962. Socializing and relaxing at camp balanced his busy work life.
Glenn now joins his predeceased relatives: brothers, Bill (Donis) and Larry, sister Doris (Paul) Bowen, and daughter-in-law Cheryl H. Seiler.
As per Glenn's request, a private family service will be held at a later date.
Memorial contributions may be made to the charity of your choice.
Glenn's family would like to thank the wonderful nurses and staff of Brookline Village assisted living center for their skills and kindnesses during the past two years. Also, the medical and support professionals of the Huntingdon VA; his niece, Dr. Mandy Maneval; and the amazing UPMC hospice angels who gave Glenn superior care for which they deserve much gratitude.
