Janet Gleason

May 25, 1930 – September 14, 2024

Janet Gleason passed away on September 14, 2024 at the age of 94 in Meridian ID. She is survived by her husband of 74 years, Al Gleason; her three sons and their wives; and four grandchildren. Jan was born near Central Point, Oregon. She and Al married there and lived most of their lives in Oregon, in Medford, Lake Oswego, and Depoe Bay. In late retirement they moved first to Green Valley, Arizona and then to Meridian, Idaho. Al says Jan was most proud that she raised children who made creative and meaningful contributions to their communities and the larger world. Jan’s family will always cherish her nurturing spirit, her independent mind, and her love of beauty in both nature and the arts. Private interment will be at her beloved Oregon coast.
