The Gleason "Yard of the Month " for August goes to Kitty Wray Oliver at 101 Vincent Street. The home was built in 1960 by Kitty's parents, Bob and Katherine Wray, when Bob was Gleason postmaster. Kitty keeps the property perfectly maintained and adorned with ample shade trees, beautiful flowers and shrubs year round. We appreciate Kitty's contributions of keeping Gleason a great place to live and raise a family. A generous gift card from a Gleason business was presented to her.
