Mr. Glen Canada of Campbellsville, son of the late Sammie and Lela (Hammond) Canada, was born in Wayne County on June 8, 1937. He departed this life on Sunday, March 17, 2019 at his home, being 81 years, 9 months, and 9 days of age. Mr. Canada had made a profession of faith in Christ and was a member of the Green River Memorial Baptist Church. He was a lifelong entrepreneur, and the former owner of the Arrowhead Mobile Manor and current owner of S&C Sales and Supplies. Two of his favorite things were being outside and meeting people. He often combined those pleasures when he went camping, fishing, or just hunting for bargains at yard sales. He had a passion for the lost, and especially enjoyed his labor in God's kingdom, as evidenced over 30 years as a Royal Ambassador.

His wife: Carole (Graves) Canada,
Two sons: James Canada and wife Judy of Atlanta, and Shawn Canada and wife Chrissy of Campbellsville,

Five grandchildren: Timothy Canada and wife Jill, Matthew Canada and wife Hala, Brighton Warren, Kinsley Canada, and Anniston Canada,
His extended family: James and Lois Campbell of Campbellsville,
And a host of other family and friends.
