Trenton was born January 25, 1993 in Kalamazoo. He grew up in St. Joseph and attended St. Joseph High School. He had recently moved to Las Vegas to pursue a career in criminal justice, and was working as a security guard. Trenton was much like his father, always coming up with new business ideas; but he was never too old to spend quiet times with his mother. He enjoyed skateboarding, video games, and golfing; but he especially loved being a big brother. Trenton will be forever missed by his parents, Ryan and Steffanie Gleaton; brothers Samuel and Alexander; sister Lauren; grandparents, Dan and Mary Burreson, Patricia Gleaton, and Laverne Farrish and John Farrish; aunts and uncles; Marcus and Kathryn Gleaton (Trenton’s God parents), Christopher and Cindy Gleaton, Chip and Victoria Cook, and Timothy and Kimberly Farrish, and best friend Jacob Harvath and special friend Kelsy Puckett. Trenton was preceded in death by John Farrish and grandfather Lawrence Gleaton. Trenton will always be remembered for his infectious smile, and for his loved ones left behind, the encouraging words of promise he always told his brothers and sister “It’s not goodbye, it’s see you later.”
