Their marriage began with three stepchildren, Kyle, Connor, and Sarah, followed a year later by their daughter, Ava. Together they formed the “PERFECT UNION”, in the town of Union, Maine. Jon is survived by his forever wife, Teresa (Witherly) Gleason of Union; his four children, Kyle Williams of Belfast, Connor Williams, Sarah Williams, and Ava Gleason all of Union, Maine. Jon also leaves behind a most cherished and influential grandmother “Mammie”, Rosalie Gleason of Appleton, who had a tremendous influence on his life;father Craig Thurston Gleason and wife Gail of Union and mother Sybil (Clement) Wentworth and husband Joel of Union; his sisters Nicole Glidden and her husband Shawn and their daughter Kelsey of North Yarmouth, Maine, Carrie Gleason and fiancé Gerry of Hanover, Maine as well many beloved aunts, uncles, cousins and six step-siblings; broken-hearted in-laws Galen and Barbara Witherly of Hermon.

Jon-David attended Union Elementary School and middle and high school in MSAD 40. He spent some of his high school years attending Carrabassett Valley Academy near Sugarloaf where he participated in the free-style and mogul skiing competitions. His high school years were interrupted when he became critically injured in a car accident during his junior year. This very serious brain injury required much determination and hard work, which he very diligently put in and he proudly graduated from Camden-Rockport in 1996. He would often stop in and visit some of the wonderful medical professionals at Maine Medical Center and New England Rehabilitation Hospital to thank them. Jon-David went on to become an avid sky diver, ski patroller and instructor. He grew up involved in his father’s drag racing circuit and was considered a vital member of the team at an early age. He later became a professional truck driver and will be sadly missed by his co-workers at Performance Food Group. Of all the accomplishments he achieved, he was most proud of his role as a husband and father. Jon-David was deeply loved by many, and he will be sadly missed by his loving family, many friends and his four-legged partner “Summer” (Happy Dog 213). We are proud to say we knew him and loved him. He will certainly be watching over us. Good night, My Sweet. Visiting hours will be held on Friday, August 14 from 4-6 p.m. at Riposta Funeral Home, 182 Waldo Avenue, Belfast.
