Glenn was an incredibly loving and gifted man. He put his family above anything else, and was one of the hardest workers you’d ever meet. He could solve any problem given to him, and never turned away those in need.

Glenn enjoyed making elaborate villages surrounding his model train collection, building and flying RC planes, wood and metal working, and gardening fruits, vegetables, and flowers. He loves his family and dogs, and worked hard to raise cattle, horses, and chickens. He owned his own contracting company; “Ericson Mechanical Contractors”, and worked for York international. He was loved by all who were lucky enough to meet him, and will be greatly missed.

A memorial visitation for Mr. Ericson will take place 11AM - 1PM, Tuesday, July 6, 2021 at Sterling-White Funeral Home Chapel, Highlands, Texas with a graveside service to follow at 1:30PM in Sterling-White Cemetery, Highlands, Texas.
