Glen William Moran, 97, of Newark, Ohio died Thursday May 21, 2026, at the Selma Markowitz Inpatient Care Center located at Licking Memorial Hospital in Newark.

Born July 29, 1928, in Fallsburg, Ohio, he was a son of the late Loyd & Agnes I. (Clark) Moran and a 1946 graduate of Union High School. Glen proudly served in the United States Army during the Korean War and was a Christian by faith. He worked in the oil fields as a young adult and later retired in 1988 as a periscopic sextant repairman for Newark Air Force Base after 25 years of service. Glen was a member of Hanover Legion Post 764 for over 50 years. He was known as a hard worker and could always be found tinkering in his garage.
