Not sure what to say?

When I think of Dan I think of music--LOTS of music!--that radiant smile, his love of family (AND his sweet pooch), and his enthusiasm for life. This is a loss for so many.

I miss you Auggie you were truly a special grandfather, I love you so much

I extend my condolences to the family and friends of Dan Gleason. I was a member of the board of the Lawyers' Committee for Civil Rights and Economic Justice (now known as Lawyers for Civil Rights "LCR") during Dan's tenure. He was an amazing and dedicated leader, and fully committed to social justice. It was a pleasure to serve with him and to learn from him. He was a man of generosity and grace. May his memory be a blessing. Attorney Linda Davidson

Infectious smile. Radiant personality. Generous heart. Adventurous soul. Uplifting energy. When I think of you, I think of all of the above. Ivana and I enjoyed every moment spent in your presence. I hope you two will meet in heaven to have yet another scintillating conversation. You may have left this visible world, but your spirit will warm our hearts and remain within us forever. Thankful for the times we had together.

Dan was a lawyer´s lawyer and a wonderful human. He did a great job as our MA American College chairman

Even though I knew Dan only after his Alzheimer´s diagnosis, I know what a special and accomplished man he was and wish his beloved family only the best memories. Play us another tune, Dan.
