Glenn R. Easley, member of the firm of Levitt & Easley, was born December
27, 1898, at Dix, Illinois, leaving there when six years of age, with his
parents when they moved to Wayne City, Illinois. In 1911 the family came to
Clay City, where his father, E. E. Easley, entered the furniture and
undertaking business.
Glenn, after finishing his school work,
enlisted in assisting his father at the store. In 1925 he bought out the ice
business here and continued to help at the store at spare times. In 1928 he
leased the Indian filling station on South Main street, at the old Bothwell
& Hopkins corner which he managed in conjunction with the ice business until
October, 1929, when he quit the filling station and entered into the coal
business with Mr. Levitt, retaining the ice business in connection.
No, he isn't married — naturally that assertion brings another question that
many will ask: why? We don't know — he's old enough and don't seem to be a
bit backward.
But, he's a booster for Clay City and a member of the
Boosters Club and an-ice man.
