Rev. Glenn A. Grubb, Sr., born May 25, 1928, was released from this life May 23, 2012, to be embraced by his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, whose good news he preached for sixty years. Preacher Grubb was an avid fisherman who loved overnight trips to Fontana with his sons and friends. He was most recently a member of First Baptist Church, Friendsville, TN. Rev. Grubb led three Southern Baptist churches as pastor throughout his lifetime of ministry. As founding pastor of Unity Baptist Church in Maryville, TN, he served that church in the 1950's and 60's. He finished his high school education in 1958at Harrison-Chilhowee Baptist Academy (now The King's Academy) in Seymour, TN, and earned the Bachelor of Arts from Carson-Newman College, Jefferson City, TN. He moved with his family to California in 1965 to serve as pastor of Broadway Baptist Church (later Berkeley Avenue Baptist Church) in Turlock, California, until 1970. During that time he earned the Master of Divinity from Golden Gate Baptist Theological Seminary in Mill Valley, CA. He returned to East TN to become pastor of Madison Avenue Baptist Church, Maryville, and led that church in a remarkable growth period until his retirement in 1995. Rev. Grubb preached in hundreds of churches throughout his lifetime, and served seven area churches in interim pastoral roles. Fulfilling the Great Commission of Christ was his passion, and he eagerly took the Gospel to all who would receive, whether a wealthy businessman, a government leader or a penniless beggar. He took that good news message everywhere--preaching countless revival meetings throughout the hills and cities of Tennessee, Alaska, California, Georgia, Kentucky, Michigan, Missouri, New Mexico, North Carolina, South Dakota, and Texas, and in the countries of Brazil, France, Ivory Coast, Russia and South Korea. He led numerous mission teams to Brazil over a 28-year period, where he conducted many evangelistic meetings and led in the construction of 51 chapels. He is predeceased by his parents Walter Reece Grubb and Iva Lee Cable Grubb, and his wife of 63 years, Kathleen Long Grubb. He is survived by his three sisters and their husbands, Althea and Ernest Boruff (Maryville), Pat and Bob Sharp (Sanford, FL) and Betty and Larry Waldo (Maryville); 5 children—Al and Debbie Grubb (Maryville), Walter and Diane Grubb (Seymour, TN), loving caregiver and only daughter, Faye Grubb (Maryville), Mark and Alisa Grubb (Gallatin, TN), and Stan Grubb (Knoxville, TN); 8 grandchildren—Bethany and Chad Riddle (Maryville), Christopher and Annette Grubb (Maryville), Nathan Grubb (Brooklyn, NY), Michael and Amanda Grubb (Knoxville), Amanda Morrow (Maryville), Megan and Eric Baumann (Powell, TN), Ryan Grubb (Maryville) and Benjamin Grubb (Fort Worth, TX); 7 great-grandchildren—Brentley and Ansley Riddle, and Foster, Katie Belle, Theodore, Parker and Jonah Grubb, all of Maryville. Glenn also leaves behind several nieces, nephews, and in-laws that he cherished. Friends may call at their convenience anytime Friday at Smith Funeral & Cremation Service. A Celebration of Rev. Grubb's life will be at 7:00 p.m., Friday, May 25, 2012 at Smith Trinity Chapel with Dr. Charles Sullivan and Dr. Mark Grubb officiating. Family and friends will assemble for interment at 11:00 a.m., Saturday, May 26, 2012 at Grandview Cemetery, Maryville, TN. Grandsons and grandsons-in-law will serve as pall bearers. All area ministers of the Gospel of Jesus Christ are invited to serve as honorary pall bearers. In honor of Rev. Grubb's request, in lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made to: Brazil Mission Fund, First Baptist Church Friendsville, 403 North Farnum Street, Friendsville, TN 37737.
