Glen Robert was born November 7, 1947, to Glen and Elizabeth “Betty” (Hinton) Morson, in Mankato, MN. Glen worked many jobs throughout his long life, he worked on a local farm as a kid and delivered groceries for Hal’s Grocery. In 1967, he enlisted and served in the United States Army. Glen was a foundryman at Dotson, a pressman at Mankato Free Press, and did maintenance at Atwood Properties. Glen was also self-employed as a handyman and roofer, and he retired as a boiler operator at ADM.
Glen enjoyed hunting, fishing, horseback riding, and motorcycle trips. As a retiree, he loved working outdoors improving his country acres, tending a shared garden with his daughter-in-law Tina, and caring for his precious dog Paddy and his beloved horse Mare. One of Glen’s most favorite pastimes was watching the life and love of friends gathering on the farm and the beautiful sunrises and sunsets.

Glen is survived by his son Brandon (wife Tina) Morson of Minnesota Lake, MN; grandchildren Kaylynn Morson, Emma Morson (Cully Olson), Gary Morson (Montana Westphal), Mercedes Morson, and Micah Morson; great-grandchildren Zoey, Zavion, Asher, Goldie, and newest great-grandbaby Henry Lee Robert Morson; his beloved dog Paddy and horse Mare; brother Steve (Pam) Morson of Lafayette, MN; along with many nieces, nephews, and their families.
Brandon, I extend my deepest condolences to you and the rest of your family. I met your Dad thru my husband Phil Mans who passed on July 23, 2025. We also lived on 5th St 11 hundred block. Also my daughter Dana Forbrook Schultz was a friend of Michelle. I believe she is also a friend to you. Again to sorry to hear of Glenn passing.
Sorry for your loss Glen, Henry Steve and I all grew up together. I’m cousin Jerry Hill.
I’m so sorry for your loss. I hadn’t seen Glenn for a few years and know he will be missed. Will keep his family in my thoughts and prayers 🙏 Your cousin Elaine Hill Thompson
Glenn was a very kind hearted man and always willing to lend a helping hand. We will never forget his lasting imprint he left upon us each with our own memories. I will never forget his love for his four legged family members nor that big beautiful smile of his. Lasting memories made including when he pulled up on his motorcycle to attend my wedding day smiling ear to ear. A very good friend indeed. You will be missed by all of us for sure. Our deepest sympathies to the Morson family.

So sorry for your loss. So many memories when Glen lived next door and helping each other with various projects. I am so glad I got to visit him one time last summer.
