Private Dickerson was killed in the crash of U.S. Army Air Corps C-47B-50 transport #45-1085 when it mysteriously exploded in flight and crashed near Hobard Mills, 11 miles north of Truckee, California. The plane departed Stockton, with destinations to Ogden, Utah and Denver, Colorado with 23 Army and Navy personnel destined for discharge from military service, and three crewmembers. All aboard perished. One of the passengers aboard was Lt. Cdr. Lloyd Stark, son of former Missouri governor Lloyd Stark.

After his death, Glenn's wife Agnes Juanita Ellis Dickerson married Lincoln Ford Cavanaugh. Not sure about the child that they were expecting when Glenn died, looks like he may have taken the name Cavanaugh.
