GLENN GRUBB

Glenn Grubb, age 72, of Brookville, died Tuesday, December 29, 2020, at McCullough Hyde Memorial Hospital in Oxford, Ohio.  He fought a 4.5-year battle with cancer, but Covid-19 defeated him. 

Born September 2, 1948, in Oneida, Kentucky, he was the son of the late Dallas and Emma (Ball) Grubb Whitesell, both of whom precede him in death. On March 25, 1966, he was united in marriage to the former Sharon Cook, and she survives. 

Glenn was employed at Owens Corning for 45 years, retiring in a supervisor position. He attended several local churches over the years. He enjoyed golfing, fishing, gardening, and traveling. 

He enjoyed snow birding in Florida and traveled to many states including Hawaii. He fished in Canada, visited the Bahamas, traveled to Mexico twice, and spent more than three weeks in Paris, France, Brussels, Belgium, and Amsterdam, Netherlands.

He loved his rescue dog Miss Puggles Hackelberry, but most of all he loved and cherished his family. 

Besides Sharon, his loving wife of nearly 55 years, survivors include a son, Steve (Sheila) Grubb of Morton, Illinois, a daughter, Sherry (Mike) Lucas of Brookville; five grandchildren, Brandon (Ellen) Lucas of Carmel, Kory (Ashley) Grubb of Eureka, Illinois, Kodie Giron (Lorenzo Garcet) of Hialeah, Florida, Kasey Grubb (Cheyenne Hacker) of Morton, Illinois, Mikahla Lucas (Eric Pfaff) of Liberty; seven great-grandchildren, Jack, Emma, Madeleine, Mason, Killian, Arthur, Katelyn and one on the way. He is also survived by five brothers, Theo Grubb, Gary (Debbie) Grubb, Dallas Grubb Jr., Jimmy Grubb, David Grubb; one sister, Rosie (John Heinrich) all of Ohio, and many nieces and nephews.
