[March 19, 2013]  Paul E. Gleason, president of the Abraham Lincoln Tourism Bureau of Logan County, announced his resignation at the conclusion of a bureau meeting Monday evening. The resignation is effective immediately.

"My years on the tourism board have been a long journey. It is now time to step aside and to continue down my pathway of life," he said.

"Thank you for the opportunity to serve and for the journey," he told his fellow directors.

There were many rumblings and sad sighs from directors who will miss his contributions.

Gleason has served the tourism bureau since its beginning in April 1987, including years when he served on the Logan County Board and acted as the board's liaison to the bureau. When he left the county board, he was honored by the board for his work as liaison.

As for what he will be doing with his spare time, Gleason said his plans are to continue writing letters to soldiers, which he has done for the past 48 years.
