Jason you were my best friend for 37 years. We met in middle school and were immediately inseparable. I will miss our daily chats, our goofy stories, and all the memories you gave me over the years. Rest easy my friend

My thoughts and prayers are with you all. Pat, Allen, and family, I am so sorry for your loss. Jason was truly one of the funniest and most talented people I’ve known. I will miss you bro! Rest In Peace friend. – John Perry
Please forgive the lateness of this remark, but I just came across this site.
I was also a middle school friend of Jason, and I didn’t learn of his passing until a few years later from Keith.
Unfortunately, Jason and I didn’t stay in touch beyond our early teens, so I didn’t get to know the man he became and it saddens me that he passed away so young.
Jason was one of the funniest and wittiest guys I’ve ever known… even at that young age. I have very fond memories of the years that we all spent together as kids. And even though we only shared a few formative and glorious years together, Jason’s charm and influence made an impact on our lives. So his memory lives on.
Thanks for the memories Jason… may you continue resting in peace… and I hope that when all of our times are up, we’ll all get to relive and renew our friendships in Heaven. – Chris Wong
