What a senseless death,such a young life gone,where is the respect for humanity. My deepest sympathy to the family,friends and what was to be the future Mrs.Gleason. What an anniversary date too remember for them. As for the coward who did this, I hope our Lord let Trooper Gleason, pick the young mans punishment,as for his girlfriend,may she rest in peace and her family also. I am a survivor of Domestic Violence of a 5 year marriage and I learned the hard way, I woke up the day he turned a shot gun on my 3yr old son,my 2yr old daughter and myself and our unborn child, by the grace of our Lord and yes a very brave Trooper,ended it by risking his life to save ours! The trooper is now deceased, by natural causes, I often think of him and Thank him for giving my children and myself our lives, to this day!!!!!

Dear Larry, I wanted to remember you on this, the 11th anniversary of your leaving us. I was in shock when I heard the news because I live in Essex County. I still remember the time you were kind to my disabled son, and you showed him all the features of your troop vehicle. He still mentions you from time to time, he's grown and doing well now, and you had an impact on his life.

Tried to give blood the other day on your birthday. Pulse was way too high. They acted like I was on Coke. No, I prefer Pepsi.

Larry, the words to the song by Kenny Chesney, "Who You'd Be Today", come to mind on this day, which would be your 38th birthday:

Sunny days seem to hurt the most.
I wear the pain like a heavy coat.
I feel you everywhere I go.
I see your smile, I see your face,
I hear you laughin' in the rain.
I still can't believe you're gone.

Would you see the world? Would you chase your dreams?
Settle down with a family,
I wonder what would you name your babies?
Some days the sky's so blue,
I feel like I can talk to you,
An' I know it might sound crazy.

It ain't fair: you died too young,
Like the story that had just begun,
But death tore the pages all away.
God knows how I miss you,
All the hell that I've been through,
Just knowin' no-one could take your place.
An' sometimes I wonder,
Who you'd be today?

Sunny days seem to hurt the most.
I wear the pain like a heavy coat.
The only thing that gives me hope,
Is I know I'll see you again someday.

Someday, someday, someday.
