Glen Charles Hildebrand
1971 ~ 2023
On Sunday April 16, 2023 Glen Hildebrand of Winkler, MB was called home to be with his Heavenly Father at the age of 52. After a strong fight with brain cancer, Glen passed away peacefully at BTHC.
Glen was born on February 4,1971 in Winkler, MB. He grew up in Greenfarm in a Christian home where he helped on the farm and enjoyed spending time riding his dirt bike. Glen started dating Nellie in early 2001 and chose her to be his life companion. They were married on July 26, 2002 and were blessed with two children, Justin and Samara. Glen gave his life to the Lord Jesus at an early age and was baptized on April 7, 2002 at WMBC. He lived out his faith by starting each day in prayer and taught his family the importance of reading the Bible and going to church. Glen was dedicated to his job at Hometown Ford for the past 25 years. He served many customers with his considerate and common-sense approach. He appreciated that his workplace was so close to home so that he could bike to and from work and be home with his family for mealtimes. Glen enjoyed the outdoors and loved to ride motorcycles in summer and often headed to the outdoor rink to play hockey in the winter months. He was dedicated to his family and loved spending time together camping, going on vacations, and playing sports with Justin and Samara.
Glen will be sadly missed but lovingly remembered by his wife, Nellie, son, Justin and daughter, Samara. He is survived by his parents, Albert and Doreen Hildebrand, sisters, Carolyn (Richard) and Leanne (Dave), parents-in-law, Henry and Nellie Klassen, brother-in-law, Henry (Helen), sisters-in-law, Helen (Cornie) and Tina (Shaun) and their families.
