In Memory of Glen

August 19, 2008

Glen and his wife Ashley

Shaker Swimming lost one of its own.  Glen Tetzlaff, age 29, Shaker Heights Class of ‘97, passed away August 14th after a brief struggle with cancer.  Glen was a quintessential Shaker Swimmer.  He was a loyal friend, bold leader, incredibly hard worker, and humble record holder.  Glen’s story is proof that you don’t have to win 8 gold medals to be a true champion.

He will be missed by the Shaker Swimming community, his wife, Ashley, his family, and friends.  The family suggests memorial gifts to the Cleveland Clinic Taussig Cancer Institute, 9500 Euclid Avenue, Cleveland OH 44195.  Condolences at www.mahermelbourne.com
