Glen Allen Enderson

Glen Allen Enderson was born to Ellard and Marie Enderson on July 24, 1935, in Choteau, Montana.

Glen attended Choteau High School and began a long career working for the State Highway Department. He married Irene Schmidt from Jordan, MT in 1955. Beginning in 1953, Glen began a career spanning 40 years working for the Montana State Highway Department. The job required a willingness to move the family frequently, and with a family of 5 kids, it was no small task for himself and Irene. When one job was finished, he would hook up his mobile home, and along with his family, move on to the next job. Glen was responsible for engineering and managing multiple highway construction jobs, covering every area of the state.

Glen was a devoted family man and never hesitant to tackle a new project. He was an astute “shade tree” mechanic. His ability to grab a Chilton’s manual, and work on every aspect of an automobile allowedhim to save a dollar and teach his kids these skills.

Glen finally found a permanent home in Belt in 1966. Always being involved in his kids’ interests and education, Glen was an active member of the Belt Valley School Board for many years. He was also involved in the Belt Volunteer Fire Department, was a City of Belt Councilperson, a member of the Belt Community Church, and a scorekeeper for the Belt basketball team. He was always willing to share his engineering advice and organizational skills, which was a key item in working to document, identify, and organize the Pleasant View Cemetery, along with his second wife Marilyn.

Glen and Marilyn traveled the globe, to include locations like Germany, Austria, Spain, Portugal, Mexico, China, Canada, the British Isles, and many U.S. states including Hawaii and Alaska.

Glen is survived by his wife, Marilyn, of Belt; his children, Susan (Tim) Marn, Gary (Cindy) Enderson, Sandy (Mark) Scott, and Lyle (Judee) Enderson. He was blessed with seven grandchildren and fifteen great-grandchildren. He is also survived by stepchildren, Eileen (Dan) Dolphay and Karl (Sandi) Koontz; two step-grandchildren; and one step-great grandchild.

He was preceded in death by his first wife of 43 years, Irene; and son, Greg.
