Religious services will be held at 6:00 on Sunday evening. Glenn Howard Cantor, 70, of Bend, Oregon, married 43 years to Inge Eriks, died on February 16, 2024 in a snowmobiling accident in Alaska near Denali. Glenn was a scientist, outdoor adventurer, nature photographer, birdwatcher, bicyclist, and a loving husband, caring father, and adoring grandfather. He referred to himself as a “skeptical optimist,” a phrase which captures both his intense curiosity, scientific mind, and critical thinking, as well as his extreme zest, indomitable spirit, and joy for life that he brought everywhere with him. A warm, inviting, and genuine person, Glenn had a talent for making lifelong friends everywhere he went. Glenn spent much of his career as a research scientist discovering and developing drugs to treat cancer and other diseases, and was a board member for the Waldenstrom’s Foundation. Before joining the world of pharmaceutical research, he was a large animal veterinarian, then a tenured professor of veterinary medicine at Washington State University. Throughout his career, Glenn served as a mentor to many younger veterinarians and scientists. He was proud of his service in the Peace Corps in Ecuador and his volunteer work as a veterinarian with the Iditarod sled dog race. Glenn deeply loved his family, friends and community, and will live on through us all: his beloved wife Inge; parents, Bernard and the late Judith; children Alida (Travis Pritchard) and Emma (Josiah Brown); grandchildren Lily, Max, and Sophie; siblings Cliff (Pauline), Jim (Susan), Ellen (z”l 2013), and Mark (Karen); and his many nieces, nephews, cousins, friends, neighbors, and colleagues. A memorial celebration will also be held in May 2024 in Seattle, WA.
