Glenn Donald Lambert, age 76 years, of Seneca, SC, died on Sunday, July 23, 2023, at Prisma Health Oconee Memorial Hospital.

Born on October 3, 1946, in New Jersey, son of the late Donald R. and Alvina Tinnes Lambert, Glenn was a lifelong Hunterdon County, NJ resident prior to moving to South Carolina fifteen years ago.

Growing up in Cherryville, NJ, and attending North Hunterdon Regional High School, Glenn would join the United States Army in 1965 and be honorably discharged in 1967 at the rank of Specialist Fourth Class.

A talented man of machines, he owned and operated his own landscape and excavating company for many years. He was known to handle any type of project with determination and grit, and always be fair to his customers.

With a passion for fishing and boating, Glenn was involved with boat racing over the years and also enjoyed all types of fishing. From deep sea to the bay, Glenn was always smiling when he was on the water. Growing up in bucolic Hunterdon County also kindled a passion in his heart for farming, and his daughters fondly recall growing up helping Dad plant and pick corn when the time came, and then they would sell their product at the end of the driveway which made many in the community very happy that they could enjoy fresh Jersey Corn!

Though Glenn faced several mountains during his lifetime, his golden heart at all times only wanted the best for his family and friends, especially his daughters, and this light will forever be his legacy.

Surviving are his two daughters, Alaina Christine Lambert and Mary Suzanna Lambert; a sister, Donna Sierp; a brother, Joel Lambert; his former wife and mother of his children, Angela Sabatino Lambert; several nieces, nephews, and extended family members; and many dear friends.

Glenn will lie in repose on Tuesday, August 8, 2023, from 10:00-11:00 a.m. in the Chapel of Wright & Ford Family Funeral Home and Cremation Services, 38 State Highway 31, Flemington, NJ.

Graveside life celebration services and burial with military honors next to his cherished mother will take place privately at Locust Grove Cemetery, Quakertown, NJ.

The NHRHS Alumni sends their most sincere condolences. May he rest in peace.

My brother was more than just a brother, he at times was a father figure to me. He taught me how to fish and hunt, repair and run equipment, motorcycles, boats just about anything with a motor and wheels. He went to and came back from the Vietnam war and was my hero. I could go on forever, you will be missed more than you know. I love you bro. God Bless. Your girls Alaina and Mary Sue are as beautiful as you and will always be in are Hearts.

I have so many good memories of Uncle Glenn. I don’t remember him ever calling me Doreen, I was always Reno. He was always teasing us kids and joking around. He would play jokes on us and then laugh and snicker like a little kid that just got away with something!! When we went to Lake Hopatcong, he would put worms on our hooks when we were fishing. We would go with him to gas up the boats, or he would take us to the amusement park. He worked on his race boats and motors all the time. He could take anything apart and put it back together again, he was very talented. When I was a kid, he always had some kind of hot rod and was racing around with it. There were always lots of toys he would be working on like speed boats, race cars, snowmobiles, jet skis, pretty much anything with a motor. We would all go to the Flemington Speedway and watch the stock car races. I’m sure he gave us all our need for speed and adventure. Momma Donna owned a few jet skis and a snowmobile. I raced dragsters, and my husband and I had jet skis, race cars, and boats. Uncle Glenn would always let my mom know the NASCAR racing schedules. They would chat and tease each other about who’s driver was better or who was going to win that week. His prayer before meals would be Rub a Dub Dub, Thanks for the Grub, Yay God!! He was quite a character and will be missed and remembered always. Until we meet again uncle, Reno says thanks for all the fun, adventure, and memories. Alaina and Mary Sue thanks for sharing your dad. Our hearts and prayers are with you. “Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted.” Matthew 5:4 - - - “So with you : Now is your time of grief, but I will see you again and you will rejoice, and no one will take away your joy.” John 16:22 -Doreen Valle

Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.

Beloved Brother & Uncle - You are always in our hearts!!

My brother Glenn was a great guy! He was a self-made mechanic, built his own racing boats, he could fix anything! He always fixed my cars if they broke down! He was a great uncle to my children! We went to the Flemington races all the time and reminded each other every week about NASCAR races that were on TV, I will miss that! Our uncle Bill called us Gus and Gussy. We were always together growing up and always at our grandma and grandpa Tinnes’s farm. Glenn was very funny! I bought a Hyundai Elantra and sent him a picture and he said where is the front of the car, I can’t see it, does it have a hood? I wish I could share all of the stories that I have. He always made me laugh. I miss him so much and will miss talking and texting with him! Rest in Peace my brother, until we see each other again. Love you!

To Glenn's family,I worked with Glenn at MGC until he left for SC. We had many talks about life in general. It was a pleasure to know him!RIP Glenn

I have many fond memories of Uncle Glenn as a kid going on jobs with him in the dump truck, swimming in grandma and grandpa's pool, picking sweet corn, going boating at Lake Hopatcong, everyone going to Long Beach Island for vacation, watching Nascar and of course nicknaming Michelle and I "Groundhogs". He will never be forgotten. Rest in Peace Uncle Glenn, we miss you. Sending love and prayers to Alaina and Mary Sue, God Bless you both.

You are in our thoughts and prayers. Our deepest condolences for the loss of your dad.Aunt Donna, Doreen & Miguel & Debbie & John

Sorry to hear about glens passing, I knew Glen when he started racing stock outboards. Had lots of good memories and laughs together.rip. Jim mccrea.

It's been about thirty years but I will never forget how Uncle Glenn always called me River, and the times he let us kids ride in the back of his pick-up on the farm, picking corn and taking it to the little farm stand. He could swing you up into his arms like you were a feather and he smelled like the brown cigarettes he smoked and always seemed to be wearing a flannel and always watched The Weather Channel. He was a cat person like me. Rest In Peace. My love and sincerest condolences to my cousins Alaina and Mary-Sue. I've been praying for you. May God bless you and keep you.

Please accept our deepest condolences for your family's loss.
