Glen Lawrence was born on September 1, 1955 to Victor and Cecelia (Brech) Schaefer in Yankton, SD. He came from a family of four brothers and five sisters being the seventh child. He enjoyed spending time with his family during family reunions and the holidays. He loved playing bingo on Fridays with his mom, sister, and nephew at the Senior Citizens Center. Some of his favorite activities were bowling, going boating, Special Olympics, ERTH class, eating out, attending concerts, plays and movies, camping at Weigand and Lewis and Clark.
