Obituary

Our beloved husband, father, grandfather, great-grandfather, great-great-grandfather, brother, and friend, Glen Muir Marcusen, passed away peacefully at his home on Thursday, October 8, 2026, at the remarkable age of 101, surrounded by his six daughters.

Glen lived a long and wonderful life, and if there was one thing he knew how to do, it was making the most of his time here. He filled 101 years with faith, family, hard work, unforgettable stories, and a love that never faded. And after all those years, he was more than ready for his next adventure.

Glen was born on November 17, 1924, in Logan, Utah, the second of five children born to Lillie Muir and Peter Christian Marcusen. He grew up in Logan and graduated from Logan High School before serving in the United States Air Force for two and a half years in the South Pacific. After his military service, Glen served an LDS mission in Denmark, beginning a lifetime of faith and service that would remain at the center of everything he did.

When Glen returned home from his mission, he began making frequent visits to the Lewiston Café. Whether he was there for the food or had another reason for stopping in, we may never know for sure. But time after time, he found himself being waited on by the same redheaded waitress. Eventually, that redhead won his heart, and on December 15, 1950, Glen married Jeneane Coley in the Logan Utah Temple. From then on, she was affectionately known as “his redhead,” a name he continued to use with love long after she had passed away.

Together, Glen and Jeneane built a beautiful life in Logan and raised six daughters: Rosalie (Dennis) Archibald, Marie (Dave) Miller, Janette (Shane deceased) Roholt, Julie Demler, Glenna (Lane) Kendrick, and June (Kyle) Hancey. Their family became Glen’s greatest joy, and his love for Jeneane was a reminder to all of them that true love doesn’t simply end when a life does.

Glen was a hardworking man who believed in keeping busy. He spent many years working alongside his father in the gas and oil business. When his father retired and sold the business, Glen went to work for the Logan City Street Department. But retirement didn’t suit him for long. Apparently, slowing down wasn’t part of his plan, so he went to work for National Battery Sales. Even after all those years of work, Glen still found ways to keep himself busy.

His faith in Jesus Christ was a guiding force throughout his life. Glen was an active member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and served in many callings, including five years as a bishop, followed by service on the High Council. He also served in the Logan Utah Temple for more than 50 years. The temple held a special place in his heart, and serving there was easily one of his favorite things to do. His faith wasn’t just something he talked about; it was something he lived through his kindness, his service, and the way he treated others.

One of Glen’s greatest gifts was his remarkable mind. Even at 101, he could remember the names of his grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and even his great-great-grandchildren. He never seemed to miss a beat. Family gatherings were never complete without Glen and his stories, and everyone loved gathering around to listen. He had a way of making people feel welcome, loved, and connected to the family’s history. His stories will continue to be shared for generations, keeping his memories and the moments that made him so special alive for years to come.

Glen was preceded in death by his beloved wife, Jeneane; his parents; his brother, Boyd Marcusen; his sisters, Ladelle Smith and MaryAnna Jeppson; his grandsons, Jared Rasmussen, Billy Ryan, and Daxton Olsen; and his son-in-law, Shane Roholt. He is survived by his six daughters, 16 grandchildren, 37 great-grandchildren, five great-great-grandchildren, and his sister, Jean White. What a legacy of love he leaves behind.

As Glen’s time here on earth drew to a close, he made it clear that he was ready to go. He had spent years missing his redhead, and the thought of being reunited with her was something he looked forward to. When his hospice nurses were caring for him, Glen summed up his feelings in a way that was unmistakably his own: “Let’s get this show on the road!” Even at the end of 101 incredible years, he still had a little humor and a clear idea of where he wanted to be next. We are so grateful to the hospice nurses who cared for Glen with such love, compassion, and kindness. Their care meant so much to him and to our family.

Glen leaves behind far more than 101 years of memories. He leaves a legacy of faith, kindness, hard work, devotion, unconditional love, and a wonderful sense of humor that brought smiles and laughter to those around him. Through his example, he taught us the importance of family, the value of service, and how to live a life that makes a difference. Our family will miss him more than words can express, and we will forever be grateful for the blessing of having him in our lives. We will carry his memory in our hearts always and find comfort in knowing that after 101 wonderful years, he is finally home with his sweetheart, his redhead, Jeneane. Until we meet again, we love you, Glen.

Funeral services will be held at 11:00 a.m. on Monday, October 19, 2026, at Allen-Hall Mortuary, with a viewing prior to the service from 9:30 to 10:30 a.m. An additional viewing will be held on Sunday, October 18, 2026, from 5:00 to 7:00 p.m. Interment will follow at the Logan City Cemetery.
