Glenn A. Haar
Glenn
Albert Haar left this life far too soon on Sunday, April 14, 2013. He was diagnosed
6 months ago with a brain tumor and he fought this battle the same as he had
lived; with valiant determination, dignity, and self-less love for others. He
was 56.
He was born March 16, 1957 in
Gettysburg
,
South Dakota
, to Milton and Irene
Haar, the youngest of five children. At the age of 5, he moved to Triumph,
Idaho
. He attended
schools in the Hailey/Ketchum area, graduating from
Wood
River
High School
in 1975. He attended
Boise
State
University
, majoring in Business
Administration Information Sciences, graduating in 3 ½ years in the Honors
Program.
During his studies, he began an internship program with the State of
Idaho
. Upon graduation he was offered
employment with the State Auditor’s Office. He served 35 years as a dedicated
employee for the State of
Idaho
,
the last 31 years being with the State Tax Commission. Glenn loved his work and
enjoyed the people he worked with. He was a true professional and had a strong
work ethic.
In 1999, Glenn married the love of his life and his best friend, Linda Rasmussen, and became dad to Lindsay, Jared, and Brennan. As part of his marriage vows he promised them that he would love them as if they were his own children. And he did. His greatest joy however came later when he became Grampa to Jonas and Addison. Nothing made him happier than having them in his life.
Glenn was an amazing, peaceful warrior. He had such a profound effect on everyone he touched. His life values were compassion and tolerance, and he taught them by the example he lived his life. He was kind to everyone he met and was loved by all. He will truly be missed by everyone who knew him.
He loved cars, computers, and conversations. He loved to laugh and had a great sense of humor. Glenn was a life-long learner and a voracious reader. He loved to travel whether it was throughout
Idaho
, the
United States
,
or foreign countries. He loved people, but most of all, he loved his family.
He is survived by his loving wife, Linda Haar, his children, Lindsay (Jared) Stanger,
State College
