Bennett

Glen passed away in Port Moody, surrounded by the love of his family. He was born in Kingston and raised in Belleville, Ontario by loving parents Lucy and Joseph Bennett. Shortly after marrying the love of his life Maura, they decided to move to B.C. and raise a family.

Glen was a kind, respectful and gentle soul. He loved meeting new people. This served him well in all of his career endeavors. He was an honest salesperson and an excellent photographer. He even taught photography in Coquitlam and Vancouver for over 30 years. Back when he was selling electronics, he would help people above and beyond his job description and would occasionally go to customers’ homes to assist with equipment set-up, after his shift was over. The well-being of his family was his number one priority. Over the years, he enjoyed baseball, darts, tennis, guitar, cycling, nature photography and camping with his family. He coached his sons in Little League and then played Slow Pitch with a team well into his 80’s.

Glen is survived by his loving wife of 53 years, Maura, his beautiful  children Caroline (Marc), Paul (Theresa), and Roger, as well as  two amazing grandchildren Skylar and Trevor, who he was so proud of. He also leaves behind his five adoring nieces and many extended family members. In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation to Kidsport, so all kids can play.
