I worked with Glenn 1985-1988. He was a very good caring person. Sorry to hear of his passing.
Glenn L. Zwengel
Mar 20, 1948 - Apr 10, 2020
age 72, of Amberg, passed peacefully on Friday April 10, 2020, at Dickinson County Healthcare Services. Glenn was born in Chicago on March 20, 1948, the son of the late Leroy and Priscilla (Rozanski) Zwengel. Glenn’s father repaired televisions, a skill that wasn’t lost on his inquisitive son. Glenn enjoyed building and repairing a variety of mechanical and electrical items throughout his life. Glenn worked for Underwriters Laboratories but while still a young man, he made plans for his future in rural Wisconsin. He purchased acreage outside Amberg and cultivated the land and his connection with nature. Among his many hobbies were restoring antique tractors and refurbishing vintage radios. If parts for the radios could not be found, he would build them.
Glenn was an active member of St. Agnes Catholic Church. His generosity in every way was well known to his relatives, church and community.
Glenn is survived by numerous extended family, friends, and of course, his loving cat, Tabby, who has been adopted by a family member.
A Memorial Service for Glenn will be 11am on Saturday July 18, 2020, at St. Agnes Catholic Church in Amberg. Visitation is from 10am until 11am.
Roubal Funeral Home of Wausaukee is assisting the family with arrangements.

Ken and I would like to extend our condolences to all of Glenn's family. He was such a kind and thoughtful man. I will always remember he took the time to spend a few minutes with Ken at the the VA nursing center time and again when he was in Iron Mountain. I am sure you all have such good memories of him.

We are sorry for your lost. Glenn was our neighbor up north. It is hard to think of not seeing him at Mass singing in the choir on Sundays. We will miss him stopping by to give us an update on what kind of wild life had been in the area, when were up north for the weekend. We will keep you and Glenn in our prayers. Carol and Tony

Glenn will be missed. Although not a member of the historical society, Glenn showed much interest in preserving the history of Amberg, particularly the Catholic Church. He also donated a fully restored Atwood Kent radio and had plans on getting it operational at the museum.
