Glen L. Kennedy, 73, of Freedom, passed away on October 1st, 2025. He was born on August 9th, 1952, the son of the late Glen R. and Martha C. Kennedy. He survived by his wife of 54 years, Beverly Jane. He is the father of two surviving daughters, Rachel (Mike) Dierdorf and Nicole (Shawn) Kohler. He is also survived by his sister, Marjorie Kennedy-Pantaleo (Richard Pantaleo), his niece, Katrina (Sean) his great-nephew, Bodhi Ritter, his grandchildren, Brandon Harper and his fiance, Liz Small, Brittany (Bryan) Graebing, Darrick (Emily) Kohler and Cassie Kohler and his fiance, Joey Kuntzmann and his great-grandchildren: Aria, Braxton, Kaleb, Brooklyn, and Lydia.

Glen was a 1970 graduate of Freedom High School, a retiree of Norfolk & Southern Railroad after working there and a lifetime member of the Freedom S.O.I., Conway Croatian Club and Rochester V.F.W. Glen lived life to the fullest, with a deep love for the outdoors, a passion for hunting and a special place in his heart for his Harley, but above all, Glen’s greatest joy was his family. He was a devoted father, the coolest “Pap” to his many grandchildren and great-grandchildren, a cherished uncle to his nieces and nephews, and a beloved cousin to many. His love for life was infectious: his smile could light up any room, and his presence brought warmth, laughter, and comfort wherever he went.

Glen found true happiness in the simple moments, especially when he was surrounded by family out by his pool. He made it his mission to ensure his family felt safe, happy, and deeply loved. His strength, his laughter, and his unwavering love will live on in all who had the blessing of knowing him.

To those who loved him, Glen wasn’t just a great man: he was the best person you ever knew.

The family will receive visitors on Monday, October 6th, from 2–4 P.M. and 6–8 P.M. at Huntsman Funeral Home & Cremation Services of Rochester, 502 Adams Street, Rochester, who was in charge of his arrangements.

A memorial service honoring Glen’s life will be held on Tuesday, October 7th, at 11 A.M., followed by a luncheon at the Croatian Club, 1412 2nd Avenue, Conway.
