Coulter: Glenn Russell,
At the age of 39 years, is now at rest after a quiet and long battle with depression. Glenn Coulter, beloved husband of Melissa (nee: English). Loving father of Benjamin. Cherished son of Dana and Marilyn Coulter, and son in-law of Terry English (Marc Gratton), and Stephen English (Frieda Graham). Sadly missed by his brother John and his wife Tara Coulter, and brother in law Jesse Gratton and Kally Hammer, and step sister in law Mandie Graham. Lovingly remembered by his nieces and nephew: Emma, Sarah, Isabella, and Jayden. Beloved grandson of Maurice Coulter (the late Donald), and fondly remembered by Melissa’s Grandparents: Frances English (the late Ken), Doreen St. Pierre (Ray Lewis), and step grandparents Jean Marc Gratton (Carole), and the late Ilena Ellenberger. He will be greatly missed by his best buddies Kevin, Dion, Rick, and Derek. Special “Uncle” to Sarah Jane, Megan, Jackson and Emmett. He is forever in the hearts of his aunts, uncles, cousins, extended family, countless friends, and incredible neighbours.
Glenn was an avid outdoors man and he loved Moose Hunting, fishing, and camping. He was hardworking and the first person to offer a helping hand, and of course a cold beer. He was well respected in the community, and well loved by his co-workers in his job as a Roads Operator at the Town of New Tecumseth. He truly will be missed.
Visitation will be held at Rod Abrams Funeral Home 1666 Tottenham Rd., Tottenham 905-936-3477 on Saturday September 5, 2015 from 2-4 and 6-9pm. Memorial Service will be held in the chapel on Sunday September 6, 2015 at 11am. Cremation has taken place. For those who wish donations to the Mary McGill Centre Alliston, or the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health would be appreciated by the family.

If tears could build a stairwell

and only God knows why.
My heart still aches in sadness
and secret tears still flow,
What it means to lose you
no one will ever know.
