Glen dedicated his life to being a devoted husband, father, son, brother, and friend. There was nothing that Glen would not do for those he loved. Some of Glen’s biggest joys were simple ones; playing golf, cooking, trips with family/friends, watching football, and finding victims to his pranks and quick wit. Above all else, Glen’s love and dedication to being a dad was unmatched, devoting countless hours traveling to, and attending, Mattea’s sporting events and activities, never missing an opportunity to be present in her life.
Glen embodied the phrases “actions speak louder than words” and “do it right the first time” and, because of this, his impact will forever be felt by those that were blessed enough to know, work with, and be loved, by him. He leaves a legacy of kindness, loyalty and lasting friendship.
Glen is survived by his wife, Holly; his daughter, Mattea; his sisters Colleen (Rex) Thonen, Marie (Gary) Rapp and Gail (Glenn) Sandmeyer; his brothers Ray (Diane) Beeman and Eric Beeman; 17 nieces and nephews; and 36 great nieces and nephews.
Glen was preceded in death by his parents, Uel and June Beeman, and his sister, Ava Helgren.
A memorial service will be held at 11:00 AM on Thursday, February 20, 2025, at Sheridan Lutheran Church (6955 Old Cheney Road, Lincoln, NE 68516). There is no visitation. The family asks those that wish to make a tribute in Glen’s name do so to UNMC’s Oncology and Hematology Division Development Fund.
