Rolan Johnson Glines Obituary (1956 - 2014)

Rolan J. Glines Rolan Johnson Glines, born February 2, 1956 passed away February 4, 2014 after enduring a prolonged illness. Rolan, son of Arlin and Gladys Glines fell in love with Mary Jane Butterfield Rowsell while attending Cottonwood High School in Salt Lake City, UT. They were married and blessed with three sons, Rolan L., Roy D., and Christopher M.; they later divorced. Rolan again found love and married Margaret Dekker. They were blessed to have Anthony D. join their family. Unfortunately they later divorced. Rolan loves his boys and tried his best to help them succeed. His health limited his ability but his heart and purpose lead his actions. Rolan, as a youth, spent many summers working for his grandfather on his farm in Alberta Canada. His experiences there taught him the value of hard work which later benefited him as he trained to be an electrician and work in the heating and air conditioning industry. His employer often appreciated and commented on his abilities and the high quality of work he provided. Rolan had a heart of gold. He made himself available to assist others. He often helped others run their errands while delaying his own. The discomfort of dialysis was ignored so that he could provide this service, it warmed his soul. He loved the outdoors, especially waterskiing and jet skiing. He enjoyed 4-wheeling and helping nephews and nieces enjoy these activities too. Although not native to Grouse Creek Utah, Marjorie and her family and friends helped him name this his second home town. Rolan is preceded in death by his mother, who we are certain welcomed him with an incredible hug. He is survived by his four sons; parents, Arlin (father) and Marjorie (step-mother), sisters and brothers, Randa Bruce (John), Lee (Cindy), Layne (Margaret), Anita Gornik (Jamie), and Janice d'Hulst (Jim) The family truly appreciates your thoughts and prayers as they honor and remember Rolan.
