Glenn C. Ford 1949-2025

He was born on Jan. 16, 1949, in Warren, a son of Charles and Florence Abbott Ford.

Glenn was a part of the 1967 graduating class at Mineral Ridge High School.

He retired after 40 years as an auto worker at General Motors. His boredom got the best of him in his retirement and Glenn went to work for Niles City Schools as a bus driver.

Glenn was a simple man who found pleasure in the smallest things. He was an avid bowler, and he loved his slot machines and card games. More than anything, though, his heart was the fullest when he was watching his granddaughters, Sophia and Grace, play sports and he never missed one of their dance recitals.

Glenn will be missed dearly by many, including his loving wife, Cynthia; his daughters, Sarah (Vinnie) Marotti and Stephanie Petrosky; grandchildren, Sophia and Grace Marotti, Alexandria and Victoria Petrosky, and Alexis Ford; and several great-grandchildren.

He was predeceased by his parents; son Christopher Ford; brother Charles Ford; grandsons Lucas Marotti and Matthew Marotti; and granddaughter Anna Petrosky.

Calling hours will be from 11 a.m. to 12 p.m. on Monday, April 14, 2025, with a service to follow at noon, at Crown Hill Burial Park Chapel and Mausoleum in Vienna.

Services were entrusted to Selby Funeral Home.
