Hello,
We wanted you to know that we will be honoring and remembering your loved one this holiday season. We have recently sent Care Packages to our deployed troops in his name. Each package will carry the name, photo, service branch, rank and hometown of Jason D. Mann US Marine 1st Lieutenant.
We realize that this is a small tribute, but we do this with all respect and sincerity and we want you to know that it is made possible by thousands of like-minded individuals from across the American youth hockey community, our family, friends and many others who support our mission.
We will not forget. May God Bless you and keep you safe and strong.
Sincerely,
Charlie Gili & Family

I met Jason at DLI. He was just a great person, as others have said he always had a huge smile on his face. He even had it when we have him a hard time about the fainting incident. I was very saddened to hear about this and my condolences go out to his family. Semper Fidelis

To the Mann family,
Up until today, I haven't discussed with anyone but a few of my fellow brothers in 1/6 what a mentor, leader, and friend 1st Lt Mann was to me. (outside of a bit at the service in VA)
I had the fortunate opportunity to spend our entire deployment in Ramadi on the same schedule, day in and day out with him, working through the night with him.(yes I passed out a few times in the shop and he called me out on it) He saw it as an opportunity (I realize that now) to mentor me, not only as a leader but as a close friend. He expected a high standard of me and everything I did, from work, to giving me a hard time about not calling home like I should have.
I remember every night, he would pause from working his tail off to get stuff done, to call home and drop some family photos on my desk of his daughter, to which we'd probably laugh at the big smile on Isabella's face and some awesome story from "the cool dad" (he called himself that) would follow to break the serious mood of supporting combat ops in an unforgiving part of Iraq.
To this day, I never saw him ask anything of his Marines that he wasn't willing to live up to himself... and I think all of our guys would attest to that. Guy was flawless and it was all effort.
That being said, to this day, I still refer to him as my mentor and someone that I believe sets a precedent for what I need to do and be on a daily basis.
His leadership and friendship is missed and I think about the things he inspired me to do, every day.

Jason and I were roommates at DLI and RRP teammates in 1st RadBn. We spent a lot of good and bad times together during those four years or so in California and Hawaii. In the classroom, the barracks, and the field Jay was good to have around.
He succeeded not because he was a natural, but because he was dedicated and believed in what he was doing. He didn't start out fit and strong triathlete, he built himself up one step at a time from a soft and pudgy Jersey boy. His technical and tactical competence was earned through assigned training, of course, but also plenty of extra work when he knew he needed it.
He worked himself hard and expected other members of the team to do the same. You could count on Jason for effort, performance, and east coast wisecracking.
He is missed. He will always be one of the guys, one of the brothers that we will never forget.

Jay was a friend of mine from high school and though it's been more than 2 years since his death, I still think about him often. Recently, I have been teaching a literature unit on the hero and I had my students post a picture on our class website of someone they considered to be a hero. Jay was my pick. He was one of the funniest kids I knew and one of my biggest regrets was not having the courage to ask him to prom - I know if I had, and if he said yes, we would have had a great time. It was so amazing to see him transform from the pudgy jokester he was in high school to the handsome, brave Marine he became. He had more honor and courage than most people have in their pinky toe. He, his wife, and daughter are always in my prayers. Miss you, Sal.

Jason is a hero. He had a tender heart that was decisive and tough when needed. This Thanksgiving week, I just wanted you, the Mann family, to know that I am grateful to Jason (and you) for all he did in the service of his country.
I remember when Jason called me to tell me that he was a believer, a Christian. This handsome, accomplished Marine knew that there was something bigger than himself and he answered the call. When I visited his resting place at Quantico, I knew what Jesus said in John 6:40, "For this is the will of my Father, that everyone who looks on the Son and believes in him should have eternal life, and I will raise him up on the last day.”, is true for Jason. Amazing Comfort. I'm thankful I was priviledged to know Jason.
Fini, you, Shannon, and Bella come to my mind almost everyday and I pray that God will continue to comfort you and bless you during this holiday season when you still miss Jason so much. You are in my prayers.

To the Mann Family,
I respected Jason very much. He was a brother of mine on many levels. Not only as a Marine but a Radio Recon Marine as well. It amazed me that he had the same MOS background as me but also became an officer over the snipers. He embodied the true image of a perfect Marine. I want you to know that your family is on my mind quite often and in my prayers. Lt. Mann is a true hero.

March 24, 2009
Today I had phone calls from quite a few friends to wish me a Happy Birthday. A few of them, the fact keepers, asked me if I knew that we shared this date. Of course I knew. It triggered again the question about why some of us suffer into old age and the light of others turns slowly off, yet so quickly. I don’t know the answer and this leaves me deeply sad. Every year on this day, while I celebrate with family and friends, I will find some time alone to say a prayer for your loved ones because I know that you are already in a far better place. And I’ll visit. I will also thank God that there is men like you, who understand professionalism, and sacrifice, and unselfishly stand when called and step forward. You left a brave woman and a girl. Now they too will step forward with a sense of honor like a great shield to protect them as you and Our Heavenly Father watch over them. Stand easy Marine. You know now that all time is short, all Earthly victory is fleeting and that we will dwell in the House of the Lord forever and ever.

I met Jason back on a trip to Walt Disney World, Florida. He was on his senior trip. We became fast friends, writing one another & when he joined the Marines & moved to California, we visited with one another occasionally. He drove up to visit me in Seattle & was able to spend Thanksgiving with my family. I was reading my People Magazine & was shocked to learn of his death. I wish his family the best as Jason was so proud to be a Marine! My heart is aching with the loss of such a wonderful man!

goes out to the both of you. You were the best neighbor anyone could ever ask for. Your son's were the best. There is nothing harder than losing a child no matter what the age.

I will have to tell you the truth..Lt Mann and I werent best friends..I deployed with him to Ramadi, Iraq and for the entire 8 months I was his go to guy and always out with him wherever the road took us. I had a major respect for Lt Mann as he did for me and I will never forget what he taught me and in all honesty touched my life as we became friends, I found out the news last week and couldnt even believe it...My prayers go out to the family and I just want them know the story where myself and lt mann were doing a patrol in downtown Ramadi and while I was holding security..everyone dissapeared..I was scared as hell because it was myself and about 100 iraqis...about 5 mintues later I see someone running towards me and of course it was Lt Mann with his New Jersey humor asking me if I planned on going home..I will never ever as long as I live forget Lt Mann

My heart and prayers go out to the Mann family. I sat next to Jason in Arabic class every day for what seemed like forever. I have so many great memories of our time at language school. He was such a positive influence on my life. He taught a lot about fitness and how to train for a triathalon. I have him to thank for my very first one! We had some great times driving the outdoor rec vans to Tahoe to go skiing and snowboarding. What an incredible person and outstanding Marine. I don't even really know what to say except that I am very sorry and your family is in my prayers!

I don't really know what to say about this. It came as such a shock to me. I knew Jason from language and tech school and he was my squad leader for awhile. How he hated that time! I was a constant thorn in his side. He was always running damage control on my behalf. We had a unique relationship where one of us would tick the other off and there would be yelling and posturing, but we always made up and moved on. All I can do is remember the good times and all the laughter and fun we had. Our class at Goodfellow gave him the nickname 'Fallout' because of his fainting incident. Boy, he hated that! I wasn't there to witness the initial episode, but there were several near misses after that. I used to give him such crap over that. It was all in good fun though and he took it like a champ. One thing I always knew and never doubted was that he would go to bat for a friend without thinking. Even when I totally pissed him off, he took care of me. He was a great guy and I will definitely miss him. Even though we hadn't spoken is some time, he is one of those people who is never out of your thoughts. I sometimes would catch myself laughing at something he said or did way back when. If I only knew...
I will always cherish those memories. You have my prayers.

Dear Mann Family,
My name is Katherine and I am an Arabic teacher at Camp LeJeune, NC. I served in the Marine Corps with Jason for the 2 1/2 years we were studying Arabic in Monterey, CA and in San Angelo, TX. My vividest memory of him at school was when he was in a promotion ceremony and he fell and the dentist wired his jaw shut. He couldnt eat solid food for months! I was in the front row behind him when he fell, and when I knew he was ok, I teased him about it up until the last time I saw him. After we parted Texas for separate duty stations, we still ran into each other about once or twice per year. Jason was dedicated to studying the language as much as he was being an outstanding Marine in every facet of the word. He was a natural leader and always exercised good and fair judgment. He excelled in whatever tasks were before him. He always had a smile on his face even when the job was tough. We emailed back and forth over the years and he always had exciting things to say about his plans for life in the Marine Corps. I thought it very fitting when he told me he pursuing his degree to earn a commission. If anyone was up to the challenge and the level of responsibility, it was him. Shortly after his commissioning, he came to see me at Camp LeJeune requesting assitance on his "off time" (not that he had much of that in the Marine Corps!) to get some translations for signs that would help his Marines perform more effectively and enhance their safety in Iraq. He didnt have to do it, he said he just wanted to do it-and that was classic Jason. He had the biggest and brightest smile on his face when he told me about how he met Shannon and about the wedding and how his little girl was born. He showed me pictures and was quite the proud Papa! The Jason I knew loved life, loved the Marine Corps, and loved his family. He made you all proud, and I want you to know that it is an honor and priviledge that I can call him not only my fellow Marine, but my friend. God bless you all and please let me know if there is anything I can do for you.

Prayer for Peace
Lord, make me an instrument of your peace;
Where there is hatred, let me sow love;
Where there is injury, pardon;
Where there is doubt, faith;
Where there is despair, hope;
Where there is darkness, light;
And where there is sadness, joy.
O Divine Master,
Grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled as to console;
To be understood, as to understand;
To be loved, as to love;
For it is in giving that we receive,
It is in pardoning that we are pardoned,
And it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.
Amen

May the mercy and the love of God be with the family and friends of Lt. Jason Mann at this time of loss. I never met Lt. Mann in person,but I was privileged to get to know him through sharing E-mails sent by him to the Wife and Mother of my Grandson,who was a member of his Platoon. His writings left me no doubt that he was an outstanding leader of Marines. I took comfort in the knowledge that my Grandson was performing his duties under the leadership of Lt. Mann who's Concern for the safety and comfort of his Marines was secondary only to the accomplishment of their mission. At the time I learned of our loss of Lt. Mann I was in the process of drafting a letter of commendation that I intended to send through his superiors to him in recognition of his superior leadership abilities. During the twenty seven years I served in the US Army I met many outstanding young leaders and I have concluded that Lt. Mann ranks among the very best of them. Hopefully I will be able to convey these sentiments to his superiors. Billy C. Collins,Colonel,US Army,(Retired)

Our thoughts and prayers go out to your family in this time of loss and sorrow. My son served under Lt. Jason Mann in Afghanistan. We were deeply appreciative of the extra time Jason took to e-mail home to let us know how my son was doing, and to share with us his wonderful spirit and caring for his men. He was truly the most impressive young officer we have had the good fortune to know, and he will be deeply missed. Jason took on the role of leader with grace, and mentor to his men with honor. My son will carry Jason's wisdom within his heart and in his actions, and in this Jason will live on as a true Marine leader and hero. He spoke in his e-mails of his love for his wife and daughter, and his mother. I could see the love of family and of duty in his words, they were beautiful, and reassured the nervous Marine Mom in me to comfort as I knew my son could serve for no finer leader.
God Bless you as you move forward in life, knowing that Jason will be forever alive in your hearts.

Who would have known our Jason would become a Marine. As a youngster he always had a silly and wise answer. ALWAYS WITH THAT SMILE. When my son told me Jason joined the Marines I was stunned. When Jason came home on leave I was shocked. He turned into a man in such a short time. A great kid, a great man, a great Marine.
God is gonna love having Jason around.
We will miss Jason so very much here in Woodlynne NJ.

Your life was forever altered

And I don’t even know if it’s allowed.
But I salute you; allow me the honor
to salute you with permission let me say
Even though I hold no rank know that from my heart
My humble gratitude comes from the deepest part.
I salute you.

I am so sorry for your loss. Being from Lanesville myself, this really hits home again as we have lost a couple of Marines ourselves. A stepson two years ago at Camp Lejuene, and his best friend and our "adopted" son one year ago in Iraq.
There are no words that I can say to help the healing, but know that God has a new Marine guarding the gates of heaven.

My condolences to the family of 1st Lt. Jason D. Mann. I know there are no words that can go as deep as the grief they feel. There are no words that can ease their pain. But I pray that they will know that there are many, many people grieving with them; that care very deeply about them. And that care very deeply about this fallen hero.

I am writing to offer my deepest sympathies to you and your family over the loss of your HERO 1st Lt Jason D Mann. I lost my son in Iraq on May 6/2007, so I can well understand your pain of losing a loved one so dear.
I pray you will be guided by a higher power to give you peace, comfort and strength in this time.
Psalm 34:18
The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit
GOD Bless you and your family. Your soldier was a true American Hero and we are all very proud of his service. He will not be forgotten!

The Final Salute
“Brothers in Arms”, Military men and women down through the centuries, have traditionally exchanged “Hand Salutes” as a sign of recognition and as a way to render courtesy and respect one to another.
This “Hand Salute” is the last that we shall render to 1LT Jason D. Mann our Brother in Arms. To his family it symbolizes the love and respect that we have for Jason. And to Jason it is rendered as a symbol of honor and gratitude to thank him for the ultimate sacrifice he made in combat while serving the Corps and his country. No greater love is shown than a man lay down his life for another. Jason, you are a brave Marine Warrior, a true Patriot and a national Hero. With your passing, our Country has lost a National Treasure. We bid you a sad farewell. You will be dearly missed from among our ranks. Be at ease. Rest in Peace.
On behalf of the 1,405 members of Lowe-McFarlane Post 14 of the American Legion in Shreveport, Louisiana, I extend our sympathies and our condolences to Jason’s family and loved ones. Semper Fi !
