Pam/Danielle: I am so sorry for your loss. Jason was such a great person. No matter where he was or what he did he always brought this light to the situation. I don't think I ever saw him without a big smile on his face and a hand out to another person in need. Jason will be dearly missed.

Jason was a person that you wished there were more of, this world would be a better place. He has a wonderful soul that will continue through his daughters. He will be protecting them for above and be their guardian angel. He will continue to co-parent with you, when you need him he will be there for you. So sorry Amanda for such a great loss. May you find some comfort knowing his love and gentleness will continue in his girls. Praying for you and the girls to find some peace.
