I don't know where to begin with sharing the memories of my Uncle Tom Gleason, but here goes:
- summers and Christmas vacations in Huntington Beach California
- Disneyland and Knots Berry Farm trips in California
- his baritone voice and the way he always listened intently to what his nieces and nephews said
- Uncle Tom flying in for every family occasion over the last several years
- Talking about his travels to India over pizza at Vito and Nicks
-- feeding/burping me in the house on May Street when I was a baby (OK, I don't remember that one!)
There are thousands more but just wanted to say we will all miss this great man, good and loving father and wonderful uncle!
