Rest in peace, Father Gleason. You were a bright light of happiness at St. Agnes in West Chester. We know you're singing to Jesus and He's smiling.

Father Gleason was a rare priest.
His chanting of the Mass parts and the Eucharistic prayers lifted us to a different time.
He now sings with the choir of angels as they proclaim "Holy, Holy, Holy".

When Fr. Gleason was at St Luke's in Glenside he often visited with my 87 year old father who had an emergency surgery. They compared procedures since Father G had also been in the hospital. When my Dad died Fr. G sang OUR LADY OF KNOCK at the funeral. He did a beautiful job and was so kind to the Sweeney family. Rest in Peace.

Fr. Gleason was a devoted and dedicated priest who was always willing to help the parish community of Our Lady of Ransom. With the parish and Fr. Gleason both gone now, the memories will not be forgotten. My prayers and sympathy to the Gleason family. Rest in peace, dear Father, and keep on singing.

Father Larry loved to sing the Mass when he presided here at Lafayette Redeemer - sharing his lovely voice with all who attended. In gratitude for his ministry among us and with prayers for his eternal rest.

Father Gleason helped me so much when he was a vicar at St. Agnes in West Chester, PA. May he rest in peace and continue to help us from his place in heaven. Thank you, Fr. Gleason.
