Obituary
Glenn Robert Watterson II, 79, of Darlington, passed away on Friday, December 12, 2025, at Beaver Valley Healthcare and Rehabilitation in South Beaver Township.
He was born on October 26, 1946, in Beaver Falls, PA, to the late Glenn Robert “Bob” and Grace (Braden) Watterson. He will be remembered as a devoted family man, businessman, community member, and entertainer whose presence brought people together wherever he went.
He received a bachelor’s degree from Findlay College and was Presbyterian by faith.
Glenn was the proud owner of G & K Watterson Paving, a business that reflected his strong work ethic, reliability, and commitment to quality. Through his work, he earned the respect of colleagues and customers alike and built lasting relationships throughout the community.
He was deeply involved in several organizations close to his heart, including the Masonic Lodge of Enon, the LMBA Club of New Galilee, the VFW of New Galilee, the Darlington Polo Club, and the United States Polo Association. He also served with dedication as Lieutenant Governor of the Mid-State Circuit for 10 years, a role he took great pride in.
Glenn truly embraced life outside of work. He loved boating and waterskiing, trail riding, RVing, and traveling—especially cruises and vacations that allowed him to relax and enjoy time with others. Known as a natural entertainer, Glenn loved dancing, hosting gatherings, and was famous for throwing three great parties every year that friends and family eagerly anticipated. His laughter, hospitality, and ability to make everyone feel welcome will be fondly remembered.
Above all, Glenn cherished time spent with those he loved. His life was marked not just by what he did, but by the joy he shared and the memories he created with others.
Glenn is survived by his loving wife of 24 years, Karen (Croyle) Watterson; his children, Amy (Sean) Miller, Teri (James) Mirikitani, Glenn (Kristina) Watterson III, Kala (William) Henry; his step children, Jen Stoffer and Stephanie (Aaron) Merrill; his grandchildren, Austin (Denali) Miller, Cameron Miller, Braden Miller, Alise (Joseph) Berrojo, Nolan Mirikitani, Ella Watterson, Lilly Waterson, Liam Henry, Bridget Jones, Cameron Evans, Grady Arbogast-Stoffer, Mila Stubel, Brian Spencer III, David Eackard, Mason Merrill, and Aubrey Merrill; a great-granddaughter, Everlyn; a brother, Kent (Sandy) Watterson, and numerous nieces, nephews, and friends.
In addition to his parents, Glenn is preceded in death by his sister Kay (Joseph) Corradino.

Karen, we are so sorry for your loss. Together, you and Glenn made a life that he truly enjoyed and consequently, you rarely saw him without a smile on his face. He was a fierce competitor and a good friend. He was always one of Mark’s favorite teammates because he played with his heart and never quit. I will forever cherish memories of polo trips and good times. Rest easy, Glenn. We will see you down polo road.
