Obituary for Glen Edward Wearden Sr. Glen Edward Wearden, Sr, 83, of Caldwell, Texas went to be with our Lord and Savior on Sunday April 28, 2022. A public visitation will be held September 1, 2022 from 5:00 to 7:00 pm at Phillips & Luckey Funeral Home in Caldwell with a rosary beginning at 7:00 pm. A funeral mass will be held in his honor on Friday September 2, 2022 10:00 am at St. Mary Catholic Church in Caldwell, Texas. Burial will follow at St. Mary Cemetery. Glen Wearden was born on July 29, 1939 to Lawrence and Nora Wearden in Bay City, Texas. He was one of five siblings. Glen married his lifelong love, Amelia (Pargac) Wearden on February 12, 1962. They were married until she went to be with the Lord in 2021, nearly 60 years. To this union came four children, Judy Ahrens and husband Keith, Joseph Wearden (deceased) Mary Beirne and husband Martin, and Glen Wearden Jr. One grandchild, Martin (Douglas) Bierne IV. Glen graduated from St. Mary's University, San Antonio, Texas with a Bachelor of Arts in music. He served his country in the U.S. Army, and had two tours of duty in Viet Nam. Glen also served in the National Guard and retired as a Lt. Colonel in 1999. He was a member of St. Mary Catholic Church in Caldwell and was ordained a Deacon in the Catholic Church in 1998, serving at St. Mary in Caldwell, Our Lady of the Holy Rosary in Frenstat, St. Joseph in Dime Box and St. Anne in Somerville. He loved music, and played the trombone in college, military marching bands and the Brazos Symphony. Glen loved to build and fly radio control model airplanes. He was a loving, gentle man with a quiet manner, a wonderful father and loving husband. He loved talking with people and saw the best in others. He had a special way of helping the people in his life understand that they are loved unconditionally. His family is grateful for his love and sharing his strong faith in God. He had a great sense of humor – no one could beat his one-liners. He is preceded in death by his parents, Lawrence and Nora Wearden, his spouse, Amelia, one child, Joseph Wearden, two brothers, Michael Wearden and Thomas Wearden. He is survived by his children, Judy Ahrens, Mary Beirne and Glen Wearden Sr. One grandchild, Martin (Douglas) Beirne, sister Nola Russell, brother Patrick Wearden and numerous nieces and nephews. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to Hospice Brazos Valley or St. Mary Catholic Church, Caldwell. The family would like to thank the staff of Burleson St. Joseph Manor and Hospice Brazos Valley for their devoted service to Glen in his time of need. Thank you for your good and Holy work – bringing Christ's love to Glen and his family.
