Obituary for Glendon Homer "Glen" Pells

Glendon Homer "Glen"  Pells
Jeffersonville - Glendon Homer Pells, age 86 died October 24, 2018 from multiple myeloma, a blood cancer. He enjoyed an active, independent life until his illness prevented this although his smile and stubborn determination always remained. Glen grew up in Waterville VT and married Colleen Corse in 1953. They were together for 54 years until her death in 2007. They raised one daughter, Sandra Marriott.

He joined the army and was stationed in Germany where he worked as a helicopter mechanic. Most of Glen’s life work was in the lumber industry. He was employed at Bell Gates Lumber for 41 years until his retirement. Glen loved vintage cars and “tinkering” on older engines. He remembered all vehicles owned, year bought, price paid as well as other details. He was a lifetime member of the VFW and Freemasons. Glen was thrifty, quiet, resilient and dedicated to his family. He loved all animals especially his dog Peanut. When asked if he had any regrets Glen responded, “I wish I had purchased a motorcycle and explored Vermont while strong and able.” A good lesson to all, don’t wait, make memories now!

He is survived by his daughter Sandra Marriott and Frank Rheaume, two granddaughters, Tegan Marriott and Aaron Phelps, Kristin Marriott and Luke Aupperlee, two brothers, Roger and Alton Pells, two sisters-in-law Eunice Barry and Marietta Corse as well as nieces and nephews.

In lieu of flowers, a donation to the McClure Miller Respite House where Glen spent the last 7 months would be appreciated. We were impressed by the attention and commitment provided here. We would like to thank the nurses, volunteers and staff who excelled at providing hospice care to Glen.

Per Glen’s request, there will be no funeral service. A celebration of life (party) will be planned at a later date. The family also invites you to share your memories and condolences by visiting www.awrfh.com.
