Thank You from Marty and Jennifer Gleason

Submitted by Marty Gleason

We have all said “Words cannot express”…….but in the past two weeks, so many of you HAVE expressed your love and concern for our family. Jennifer and I have been overwhelmed by your prayers, your cards, your memorials, your kind words and actions. Your support has given us strength to prepare for a vigil, a funeral, and burying Alex.

Coach Bill Snyder said, “When you see the word Family written on this stadium, Please know that includes You, Because we are all part of this Family.” That has taken on an entire new meaning for the Gleason Family, and when you see or hear the phrase ‘the K-State Family’ know it is not rhetoric but it is reality. There is no way to convey our gratitude, so simply on behalf of Jennifer, Brett, Caitlen, and I…..Thank You.
