- Glen moved to Seminole during the oil boom of 1927. He and Kate were married in 1930. He was working for Mr. Kinnamon whose plumbing shop, Sanitary Plumbing, was in the 300 or 400 block of Park Street. He and Kate lived in the basement apartment. In 1929 Glen started his own business, "Glen's Plumbing" with $40.00 worth of tools and a truck. Kate was in charge of the office. During the depression they bought one lot at 1129 N. Park. Several years later they bought 2 adjoining lots. Their home was at 1129 and the shop at 1127. Kate said that during the depression Glen would sometimes make $6.00 to $9.00 per week. His plumbing shop remained open until 1971 when he had to close it due to hip surgery. During World War II, Glen was the only plumber in Seminole. Ralph and Lee Pippin, who owned Pippin Plumbing, were both drafted. Glen was exempted, due to flat feet, and because he was in a business that peformed a vital service.
