to share some tragic news. Yesterday, Glenn's father, H. Michael Gleason passed away unexpectedly at his home in Texas. We are still amidst the sense of disreality of losing Glenn- and this has pulled us deeper into that space of shock.
I did have a vision in my head last night- one where father and son gave each other a big giant long awaited bear hug... with giant smiles from shock and laughter. It is a strong vision and it has helped me cope the past few hours. Please keep Kelley and Jean and the rest of the family in your thoughts and prayers this week as we all come together again to get through this time.
much love-
Amy

Dear Amy and Family, I know this is a great loss to your family and news that is far too surreal for some us to digest... I too will miss Mike (known by me as Mr. Gleason), as he had been such a great influence on my life...I recall, when I was down that I wasn't an A student like Glenn, he said that C students were institutive thinkers who could set working solutions effectively while the rest of management needed too many facts to base their decisions and were often to late to react....I overcame hurdles, and he like Glenn gave me courage to move forward with my education and career, I applied to Rutgers because of the inspiration he, Glenn, my father and best friends provided, and I was fortunate that Mike could offer me an opportunity to enter into consulting through C&L, always he made an effort communicate updates through years and support me in career decisions. Like Glenn, Mike was an angle placed on earth that inspired many that crossed his path. He made me realize through Jean how much a mother's role should be appreciated and could be as valued. I know he should be at peace...because he was a great person hear on earth.
Please let me know if I can be any help to reciprocate in anyway...I know you have endured so much...if you need time and space in Switzerland let me know.... Love Liz
Dear Amy and Family,
With deepest sympathy we are keeping you in our thoughts and prayers. May God see you through this difficult time. Just keep your eyes and heart up and focus on the vision. You are still an inspiration and a blessing to those who know and love you.
Love, The Maton's
Amy and family,
I am so sorry for your tragic loss. Our thoughts and prayers are with you today and always.
