Glenn Alan Johnson

Glenn Alan Johnson, 81, of Blue Ash, Ohio peacefully passed away on January 29th, 2023, surrounded by those he loved most.

Glenn was born in Cincinnati, Ohio to Alma and Harry Johnson. He grew up in Pleasant Ridge, Ohio where he met the love of his life, Judy Edwards. They were married on June 10th, 1961.

Glenn was a devoted husband, father, grandfather, and great-grandfather. He always put his family first and was heavily involved in the lives of his children and grandchildren, he attended as many of their sports events; even hosting pre-game tailgates for his granddaughter’s volleyball games. He was an avid fisherman, antique collector, vintage corvette owner, and traveler. He made countless memories traveling for five months across the United States in his RV with Judy. He also enjoyed cruises with some of his favorites being a cruise on the Amazon River, cruising the Panama Canal, cruising to Alaska, and taking the Rocky Mountaineer train into Canada. Recently he cruised to the Greek Islands and Italy with his wife, daughter, and two granddaughters. All the traveling aside, without a doubt, Glenn’s happiest place on earth was next to his beloved wife, Judy, with whom he was married for 61 years.

His memory lives on through his wife Judy Johnson, his children Stephanie Kessling (Ben) and Glenn Johnson Jr., his sister Sharon Dewey, his granddaughters Kaitlyn and Kelsie Gronauer, Rachel Hubbard (Bobby), Emily Johnson, and Karley Kessling. He is also survived by his great-grandson Rowan Hubbard and many nieces and nephews. His dear friend Kevin Renner will also carry on his memory.

A private celebration of life will be held later. In lieu of flowers, the family asks that you write a short memory or anecdote of your time with Glenn and attach any pictures you might have.
