He coached high school football and was inducted into the MHSAA coaching Hall of Fame. He was also inducted into the Hopkins Athletic Hall of Fame for pouring his heart and soul into the training and teaching of all his football players, his large community impact, being named Coach of the Year, and strong relationships with his fellow coaches.

He was preceded in death by his daughters, Brenda Noble, Kaelee Noble; son, Patrick Linderman, brothers, Robert Noble, Richard Noble, Ron (Betty) Noble; sisters, Shirley McAndrew (Mack), Nancy (Garth) Grevenstuk, Pat (Jerry) Staley.

It was such an honor to have gotten to meet your family. It made my heart smile when I walked into the room to "Gracie!" It was a pleasure taking care of Glenn on 5S and it was so clear that he loved you all so much. You were great advocates for him. You all will be in my thoughts & prayers

We will miss Glenn very much! We so enjoyed speaking with Glenn every Sunday and watching football games with him. Our kids will always remember the rolls of mentos being passed to them on Sunday mornings. Hugs to your whole family as you adjust to this tremendous loss

What a blessing it has been over the last years to get to know Uncle Glenn. What a kind a loving man he was. Joe and I are blessed to have spent some fun times with him and his family. We know we will see him again when we go home with Jesus and I´m sure that he will still be catching up with all of his family and friends. We even got to go to a Lions game with he and Kara. We love you you all and are praying for you Deedee, Kara, Meg and Bryan. Until we meet again Uncle Glenn you will be greatly missed and when we are in Michigan visiting it won´t be the same. Love you bunches
