Glenn Richard Stoner

Glenn R. Stoner, 91, of Palmyra, passed away peacefully at Londonderry Village on Monday, December 31, 2018.

Born on a farm near Lawn, PA on August 23, 1927, to the late Sherk and Maude Stoner, he graduated from Hershey High School.  At age 16, he began work as a mechanic at The Hershey Company where he retired after 47 years of service.  He also served with the US army in 1945 at the end of WWII.

He will be remembered as a kind, quiet, loving father and grandfather whose greatest joy was spending time with his family.  He enjoyed many family vacations to local destinations and annual family beach weeks, a tradition for nearly 55 years.  He was a life long Phillies fan and could be found many times listening to a game on his radio.

Weaver and wife Karen of Hershey, Lori A., wife of Dr. Gregory C. Fanelli of Danville, PA.  He is also survived by 6 grandchildren and 5 great-grandchildren and was predeceased by 5 brothers and 2 sisters.
