Jason Brockmann Obituary

Jason Richard Brockmann, born in Englewood, CO September 24, 1992, was called home to his Lord and Savior March 4, 2011. Jason moved with his family to San Juan Island, WA where he attended grades K-4. In 2003, he moved with his family to West Jordan, Utah and returned to WA in 2006. He started playing year round sports in Kindergarten and played some combination of soccer, baseball, basketball, football and wrestling for the next 12 years. Jason was currently a Senior at Meridian High School and was scheduled to graduate in June. He volunteered at the Lighthouse Mission for his Sr project. In the Fall of 2011 he planned to either start college and study Business and Accounting or take a year off to work in sales and build savings. Jason had many admirable qualities and was energetic and open minded. He had a creative side and loved music and played the drums. He was also a very capable, persistent and intelligent student and his teachers said he was a "positive contributor to class" and a "good, steady worker." In the 7th grade, he tested at the 12th grade level for all subject areas. Though he excelled in many subjects including writing, reading and art, his favorite classes were History, Social Studies and Power Lifting. He was such a bright light in this world and the sky is "dull" now that he is physically gone. A smile from Jason was like pure sunshine and everyone loved being around him and his fun loving style. Jason had such a sweetness and purity of purpose within and his manner of being was uplifting and calming to anyone struggling physically, emotionally, socially or spirtually. He was loved and valued by so many friends and family and was known for being very loyal and for never saying a bad word about anyone. He didn't judge others and modeled the love of Jesus perfectly by loving others unconditionally. Jason was one of a kind and he touched and continues to touch so many lives. He lived life to the fullest and accomplished more in 18 years than most ever will. Jason was very generous and would forgo his own needs to help others. He didn't like anyone making a fuss over him and was unassuming and humble. John 15:13 says "Greater love hath no man than this that a man lay down his life for his friends" and that is basically what Jason did the night of his passing. He loved "hanging out" with his many friends and was simply walking near his home to a friend's house to play video games when he was hit from behind by a truck. We are confident his spirit ascended to Heaven immediately upon impact. As a final generous action, Jason gifted every available organ and tissue he could to promote and save the lives of many others. Jason will be missed so greatly every day by his mother, Tammy Brockmann; his father, Ted Brockmann (Jan); his brother, Jeremy Brockmann; his grandparents, Richard and Darlene TroBaugh and Melburn and Marian Brockmann; numerous Aunts, Uncles, cousins and step siblings, and his cat, Pumpkin. We welcome everyone to attend Jason's Celebration of Life Service, Thursday, March 10, 2011, 12:00 Noon, at North county Christ the King, 1816 18th St., Lynden. A Graveside Committal will follow at 3:30 PM at Woodlawn Cemetery, 5977 Northwest Dr., Ferndale. Contributions may be made to the Jason Brockmann Benefit Account at any People's Bank branch. Checks can also be mailed to Peoples Bank, P.O. Box 233, Lynden, WA, 98264 Attn: Kim.

I am very sorry to hear this news. I am a new mother, and cannot imagine the pain of this loss. I am so proud of the person he was, and ALL of the life he lived in his short 18 years...a great example to those around him.

As I write this everyone else is at Jason's funeral. I want to send my deepest sympathies to Tammy, Ted, Jeremy and the rest of the Brockmann family. My daughter , Juliana , is a friend of Jason and Jeremy. I only met Jason once when he came over with some other friends to 'hang out'. The minute I met him I liked him, I could see the GREATNESS in him. I am so sorry for your loss, may God Bless you and carry you through this awful time.Jason was a AWESOME KID and he had many friends who loved him A LOT! I can't begin to believe how much this must be hurting you all, I AM SO SORRY!! If there is anything I can do to help you PLEASE let me know!!God Bless you all!!!!

I never knew Jason. I wish I would have. I am a mother of 4 grown children. I live very close to you. I am so very saddened by this tragic accident. The candles, flowers and writings on Pole Rd. were so touching, Jason was very, very loved. His obituary was so beautifully written. I have no doubt a bright light has lost it's luster forever. To his parents and brother, Jeremy, I cannot even begin to comprehend your loss, I really can't. I am sure your son and brother earned his wings many, many times over. I am sending you my love and God Bless your sweet, sweet Jason. It is so easy to see that he meant SO MUCH, to SO MANY. I am thinking of all of you. ~ Candice ~

To the family of Jason... I didn't know you or your family but my grandson Evan was a real friend to Jason. I only want you to know how much I feel your pain . To lose a child must be the greatest pain a parent must endure. My prayers go out to you and your family.

The Culley family would like to send our deepest regards. We recently lost an 18 year old cousin and feel your families pain. Who ever wrote his obituary did a beautiful job. I sure you are proud of your son/brother and had many hopes and dreams for his future. May the peace of God be with you all.

Tammy and family,
The loss of a child, the loss of a brother, the loss of a friend. Jason was so much to so many. He was blessed to have you as his mom. He knew he was loved,and he loved you and Jeremy, he knew Jesus. Tammy, "He is not dead, he is just away". Away, safe in the arms of Jesus. God Bless you all, as he carries you through this difficult journey.
