March 26, 2018

Glenn W. Daub, 92, of Lancaster, PA, died at Mennonite Home with family by his side on March 26th. He was born in Curwensville, PA to the late Harry and Alice Lord Daub in 1925. After graduating from Clearfield High School, he served two years in the United States Air Force with a rank of Sergeant. He was trained in Radar Mechanics to install and maintain all types of Army Radar equipment in preparation for the land invasion of Japan. When the Japanese surrendered after the two atomic bombs, the war ended, and he returned to Clearfield to marry his high school sweetheart, Lucille Malloy, in 1946. She predeceased him in March 2009. He graduated from Altoona Cosmetology School and the Leo Amidula Advanced School of Styling, New York City, and moved to Lancaster. He was employed by Hamilton Watch Company until he opened his own business, Pink Ice Beauty Salon, in 1957. Lucille joined him as receptionist-manager in 1977, and they retired in 2004 after operating the family business for 48 years.

He is survived by three daughters, Joanne Daub Benedick, Cindy Daub-Miller wife of Dr. Chris Miller, and Dr. Sharon Daub-Pelker wife of Amber Daub-Pelker, as well as five grandchildren, Lisa Meade wife of Bryan Meade, Jason Benedick, Joshua Miller husband of Renee Balliet, Noah Miller, and Taylor Daub Chase and five great grandchildren. He was predeceased by two brothers, Gilbert and Clifford of Clearfield, and two sisters, Sarah Daub and Dollie Lippart, of Lancaster, PA.

Glenn was a Jack-of-all trades and particularly enjoyed doing electrical work, plumbing, carpentry, and just about everything to do with building. He built three homes, as well as the original beauty salon building.

Besides his building projects, he enjoyed yard work, traveling, gourmet cooking, and golf. He and Lucille toured each of the 50 US states, most of the Canadian provinces, and several European and Caribbean countries. He and Lucille especially enjoyed February vacations in their favorite spot Palm Springs, CA.

He was a former member of Sacred Heart Catholic Church, Conestoga Country Club, and St. Philip’s Catholic Church.

Glenn and Lucille celebrated their 62nd wedding anniversary on October 12, 2008.
