Glenna Sanborn's Obituary
Glenna L. Sanborn. 78 of Hebron, Ohio passed away June 20, 2025 at Licking Memorial Hospital surrounded by her family. She was a woman whose heart was deeply rooted in faith.
She was born August 1946 in Nelsonville, OH to the late Edward and Vera Peacock.
Glenna found great joy in the simple things- reading a good book, cooking meals from the heart, and spending time surrounded by the people she loved. She had a way of making everyone feel special, heard, and loved.
She is lovingly survived by her children, Michael and Michelle Sanborn; grandchildren, Michael W. Sanborn, Dustin Johnson, Chase Johnson and wife Meranda, Lindsey (Johnson) Zimmerman and husband Roy; great grandchildren, Karsyn, Madelynn, Alivia, Callie, Jewel, Madalyn, Samantha, Matthew, and Aaliyah; and siblings, Larry and K Peacock, Oscar and Susie Edwards, Donnie and Sharron Peacock. In honor of Glenna's life and the love she shared, a Celebration of Life will be held on Sunday, August 17, 2025. Details of the time and location will be shared with friends and family in the coming weeks.
Though she is no longer with us in body, Glenna's faith, strength and love will continue to live on in all of us.
"Well done, good and faithful servant." Matthew's 25:23 Vensil & Chute Funeral Home | Newark Chapel is assisting with arrangements.
