Glen Sanders

February 7, 1951 — March 17, 2026

Honoring the life of Glen Sanders (1951–2026), a devoted father, grandfather, pastor, and lifelong Detroiter. A man of faith, family, Motown, and the open water, Glen spent 39 years serving the city he loved and found joy in  fishing and working on cars. His legacy lives on through his children, grandchildren, and all who knew his quiet strength. Services will be held March 24–25 as we celebrate his life and favorite scriptures, John 11 and Psalm 27.
