Glen William Corcoran

Glen William Corcoran, son of William and Irma Corcoran, died on March 6, 2023, his 82nd birthday.

After the Navy, Glen attended Great Falls Commercial College, where he met Judi Irish. They married and had two children, Becki and Patrick Corcoran. Glen and Judi later divorced.

After farming for a few years, Glen went to work for Pacific Steel in Great Falls. He later became a meter reader for Montana Power, where he met too many dogs. He then studied and became a lineman and was moved to Cascade as City Manager.
