Jason will be missed but never forgotten for what he accomplished and contributed to the art community. Giving new artists a debut, hanging art all over the city, keeping a fresh art web site, and sharing a love and appreciation for the creative process; Jason touched many people. His spirit and enthusiasm stays with those he touched. Blessed be.....
