Details of Disappearance

Glenn was last seen on January 12, 2007. He piloted his boat, a 21-foot 1983 Privateer Center Console with a 225 HP Johnson engine and New Jersey registration number 4813TA, out of the Seaview Marina in Ocean City, New Jersey. The boat was called the White Whale. Glenn never returned to the marina and has never been heard from again.

The White Whale was found ninety miles east of Manasquan, New Jersey by a fisherman several days after Glenn's disappearance. It was broken up and no one was on board.

Authorities believe Glenn died in an accident at sea, but his body has never been located. He was a retired firefighter in 2007 and resided in Marmora, New Jersey.
