Donald J. Glaubig, age 69, peacefully passed away on July 19, 2006 surrounded by family following a lingering illness. Done was born on January 25, 1937 in Sheboygan, the eldest son of the late Arthur and Dorothy (Meyer) Glaubig. Don attended Immanuel Lutheran Elementary School and graduated from Central High School in 1955. He served in the U.S. Army with an honorable discharge in 1965. On September 14, 1957 he married Delaine Born in Sheboygan. On April 12, 1969 he married Janice Arpke at Community United Church of Christ in Elkhart Lake. Don was a long-time member of Community United Church of Christ where he served as an usher.
Don retired from the Kohler Company in 2001 where he was a member of the Quarter Century Club. Earlier employment included Aluminum Refining, in Sheboygan Falls and Kool Aid Soda, in Sheboygan.
Don was a long time Scouter serving Elkhart Lake for many years as Cubmaster for the Cub Scout Pack and committeeman for the Boy Scout Troup. Don further served the BSA through various districts and council positions, receiving the Lakeshore District Award of Merit as well as the Bay Lakes Council Silver Beaver Award. Through the years Don enjoyed seeing his "little Cubs" growing in the organization and earning the highest Boy Scout Eagle Award. One former Cub even went on to become a Scout Executive.
