Dr. Glenn Alan Saltzman was a member of the Rotary Club of Kent for many years serving as Club President during the 1980-1981 Rotary Year. As a husband, father, grandfather, Navy Captain, educator and Kent community leader, Glenn was known as a man of conscience and humor who touched the lives of everyone with whom he came into contact. Dr. Saltzman tirelessly donated his time and expertise to multiple local area organizations and causes during the many years he lived in the Kent community. It was through his vision that the seeds of the Kent Rotary Foundation were planted, and it was through this Foundation, using proceeds raised by the Kent Rotary Club and other private donations, that many local and area organizations have been financially helped. Dr. Saltzman’s legacy is celebrated today with this award, given each year, to the individual who exhibits those traits that were endeared in the man himself; integrity, compassion, vision and pride in professional accomplishment.
