Glen S. Jaruzel, 61 of Gaylord, passed away at home on Thursday, February 20, 2025.

Born in Gaylord, Michigan on May 10, 1963, he was the son of Edward and Ann (Korzecki) Jaruzel. Glen grew up in Gaylord, graduating from Gaylord High School in 1982. From 1987-1991 he served honorably in the United States Army.

Glen loved the outdoors, so his years of work in landscaping at Otsego Club and Treetops Resort suited him perfectly. In his spare time, he enjoyed movies and music. 

He is survived by his daughters, Yvonne (John) Ostrom and Cortney (Travis Sloboda) Jaruzel, both of Gaylord; grandchildren, Ivan, Maximus, Braylan, and Marcus; and a brother, Robert (Connie) Jaruzel of Gaylord. He was preceded in death by his parents; and a brother, James Jaruzel.

A Memorial Gathering will take place on Monday, March 3, 2025, at the Otsego Resort from 1:00 - 3:00 PM. 

Please share your memories and personal messages with the family on the guestbook below.
