Not sure what to say?

Madge,
Just learned from a MCG publication that Hugh died last year. We are so sorry to receive this news. We were at the Maine course at Colby college together and our children enjoyed playing together. I saw Hugh at a meeting in Atlanta several years ago. Sorry we have not kept in touch. We have a summer home in Highlands and had thought we might visit you sometime! We also have a high school friend in Hendersonville we thought we would visit also but never got around to it. Gene...

So sorry to hear of Dr. Gleaton’s death. He was a great friend in medical school. A group of us studied together very often while there. Loss touch over the years . He became an Ophthalmologist and I went into Plastic Surgery. I live in Macon. Great Guy!

So sorry to hear about Dr. Gleaton. I had the good fortune to work with him and Mrs. Gleaton on some business in Athens. To say he is a Dawg fan is most definitely an understatement and I could only hope to be so lucky as to work with such high quality folks on a regular basis. Dr. Gleaton is surely missed.

When I first began my nursing career, I had the pleasure of working on a post op floor with Dr. Gleaton's patients. I enjoyed working with him and learned a lot from him. My prayers are with you. Janet R. Gover

Whitney, my deepest sympathies to you and your family. God bless you all with comfort.

Madge,
We are thinking of you and the family at this time of your loss of Hugh! His passing comes at a difficult time for all of us globally.
Peace,
John and Donna Crawford
