Justin “Bronc” Gleason

Justin “Bronc” Gleason, 40, passed away at 4:20am, Monday, December 28, 2015 at the Denver Hospice in Denver, Colorado.

He was born October 26, 1975 at Dodge City, Kansas, the son of Jeri Lynn Gleason (Jackson).

Bronc’s two most favorite things were: Having a good time, and horse racing! Frequently seen at tracks all around the country – Kansas City, Oklahoma City, Phoenix, and where he was most at home – Denver – Bronc was a passionate trainer with a deep love for the sport of thoroughbred horse racing. He also loved his friends, his family, his daughter Aubrey, being “Uncle Bonky” and ALWAYS being the life of the party. Once you met Bronc Gleason, you could literally never forget him.

Bronc wants you to know that one day he’ll “See you at Tha Crossroads, so you won’t be lonely”.

Survivors include: his daughter, Aubrey Mooradian, Dodge City; his step-dad, Kendall Jackson, Dodge City; Brother, Tyler Jackson, Manhattan, Kansas; Sister, Taylor Dye and husband Tyler, Montezuma; two nephews, Payton & Owen Dye; and niece, Brooklyn Dye.

If you’ve ever met a Gleason, they’re probably related.
