A longtime leader in Hamilton City Schools and a well-known community figure has passed away. Dr. Glenn W. Stitsinger Jr. died Wednesday at the age of 85. Stitsinger served more than three decades on the Hamilton City School Board, including nine terms as president. During his tenure, he played a key role in the district’s major school construction program in the early 2000s, helping secure funding to build ten new schools—projects that were completed on time and under budget. Beyond education, Stitsinger was a longtime dentist in Hamilton, serving the community for 35 years. He was also a U.S. Army veteran, earning the Bronze Star for his service during the Vietnam War. He remained active in numerous local organizations throughout his life, including the Hamilton Rotary Club, where he was a member for 50 years. Visitation is scheduled for Sunday afternoon at Weigel Funeral Home, with funeral services set for Monday morning. Burial will follow with full military honors.
