In loving memory of Glenn Colmer who sadly passed away on 28th February 2025
To Alli, Joe, Grace, and all of Glenn’s friends and family,
I am deeply sorry for your loss. Glenn brought an abundance of warmth, kindness, and support to all who knew him. He was always full of praise and generosity, and his passing is an immense and tragic loss.
Glenn exemplified compassion and unwavering encouragement. We were all privileged to have known him—he was a true credit to those who knew and loved him.
My thoughts are with you all.

Knowing Glenn through his growth spurt teen years, he was a fun-loving lad, always a sports fanatic and without a bad bone in his body.
My heart goes out to those whose hearts are broken by Glenn’s loss. I hope some comfort will be found in treasured memories and pride for the lasting impressions he has made upon so many, evident here.
Still a guiding light, shine bright for them Glenn

You made my dream come true by believing in me and putting me forward for england trials. I got in and i remember the phone call to you afterwards! I can’t thank you enough for going above and beyond supporting me throughout my time at college and even afterwards. I passed everything highly because of you. I can’t thank you enough for what you did for me. Even went on to get my dream job! My love goes out to your family! Rest peacefully.
He was more than teacher to so many of us and he supported so many athletes in the classroom and on the court/field. Always there to push us harder or to support us in whatever way we needed. And he sure did love an academy night. There's only one GC!
Glenn achieved remarkable successes in his life but we all know he celebrated your success more than his own. Every step I took in work and life for 20 years Glenn had his hand on my shoulder and his love and friendship changed my life. His humble, selfless, dedicated and inspiring manner gave us all belief and taught us to dream big. We will keep working and dreaming Glenn, you can rest now, what you started I promise you we will finish
Will never forget the good times we spent together mate x
