Dear Dr. Emma,
We are thinking of you and your family on this day and throughout the holiday season. Though we did not know Jason, it is clear that he was a genuine light-bearer, both by example and to all who knew and loved him. May his bright light continue to shine down upon you!
Love,
Anne and Larry

Occasionally, I receive a message that someone has touched this page. I always am brought back to the reality that Jason is in heaven and not privy to our douldry lives. I then think that I must thank God for sharing him with us, that we all truly miss him, and that I continue to pray for Bob and Dee, the parents who didnt get to spend as much time with him as anticipated. God bless, Jason! You truly do live on in the hearts that knew you!

We know that his legacy lives on and that he is safe and at peace in the glory of God and His angels. Jason will be forever alive in the hearts of all who knew him.
Merry Christmas to the Emma Family. With deepest respect and prayers for the Lord's blessings and graces upon Jason, his family and devoted friends.

Dear Dr Emma ~
We were away in Chicago over the holidays and I never heard this tragic news until yesterday when I had an appt with Dr Danny E. I am at a complete loss of words and am filled with immense sadness for you and your family. I wish I could say or do something to make it easier ~ yet I know there are no words or deeds that can make it better. Please know you and your family are in our prayers ~ and we will also be praying that these horrible murderers are found and brought to justice.

I so wish that there were a way that I could help you to bear this most profound tragedy and loss. You have touched so many lives with your keen and amazing ability to heal, comfort and advise...and I am hoping that you are receiving the same from someone, somehow, somewhere.
You are now in my prayers and wishes for strength, peace and healing going forward- and I will not stop my petitions on your behalf, ever.
I am so very, very sorry.

January 2, 2013
Dear Dr. Emma,
With your skill, empathy and humanity you have, over the years, always been there to help me deal with adversities in my life. I wish I could do that for you in this time of unbelievable loss. It sounds like Jason shared something so very special with his father. The ability to touch lives with caring, sincerity, and humor. So I know at least one thing: that the many who so admire you are sending all their wishes to you for strength and healing. I among them...

To Jason's family - What do you say to the people who are responsible for bringing one of the most bravest, loyal, caring and hysterical people into the world when he's been lost to them far too soon? Other than, Thank you for raising such an upstanding man who I was lucky enough to call my friend. Jason was always helping someone out with something regardless of the circumstance or situation. I think that it's safe to say that his greatest good deed was to spend his entire life making unbelievably strong friendships so that everyone, from all walks of life felt that Jason was one of their best friends. And in doing that when the time came for him to go, those friends would come together and provide the most support and love that's physically and emotionally possible to his family in this time of tragedy and sorrow. I am going to miss Jason so much. The only solace I have is when I hear his voice telling me about how we need to hang out more...Put in a good word with the man upstairs Jason - if he'll listen to anyone, it'd be you.

Dearest Hillarie and Family,

I couldn't put into words how saddened I was to hear the news of your son and brother, Jason. I have listened for many years how proud Max is to have such a charismatic brother and how proud Bob is to have such an adventurous ambitious son. Bob couldn't have been a prouder father than when speaking of his boys! These many years of family stories have shown me what a respectful, kind, caring, loving and strong family you have all become. This unity is what will get you through this tough time. I know no words will ever bring closure because I've never known a family less deserving of this nightmare. But I am so appreciative to have gotten to know the Emma family. I am so truly sorry. With all my heart. I will keep you and Jason in my heart and my prayers.

My best friend through High School and forever my closest brother in friendship. We had too many good times for me to even remember and will have many more good times when I see him again. I not only loved him, our bond was as strong as a bond could get in all of the good times that we shared. I will miss him, and knowing that I will see him again helps me find peace. It's always the greatest that are taken young by God because God want's them closer to him and in my belief to prepare a table for those of us that knew he was the greatest. Jason, I will miss you until my last breath and I will make sure that my life is not lived in vain so you can look down over my shoulder and be proud of the accomplishment's I set out to do. I will forever love you and forever reminisce in the amazing times we had. Take care my friend, my brother, and now an angel to all of us; protecting our way. I will, see you again.

Bob, Dee and Max, Jason made quite the impression on me. He reminded me some of my fraternity friends in college. I think I could be instantly twenty years younger in his presence. I have lost a friend, but I cannot fathom what it's like to lose a relative this young, this way. I guess it is only our memories that will ever ease the pain.
Steve & Laurel Bennett
December 27, 2012
Bob,Dee & Max, there are no words that Laurel and I can find to express the loss of Jason from our lives. His warmth, friendship and humor will be greatly missed. The memories of his passionate enthusiasm for work and fun will be with us always.

Dear Emma Family & Friends,
How heartbreaking to hear of the news of your beloved Jason's passing. Although I did not know him personally, I had heard of him through my daughter, Katie Nash. She described Jason as full of life, kind, compassionate, fun-loving and a devoted friend to all. I prayed and offered my Christmas mass prayers to Jason and his family for God's comfort, healing, peace and presence in all things. May all of the wonderful memories of Jason keep him forever in your hearts and minds and may God surround him and you with His great light and abundant love. God bless you all and bring you great comfort during these most difficult days. Our thoughts and prayers are with you always.
Most sincerely,
Rev. Vonnie Coleman

Dee,
I'm a lady who worked with Jason at Simplified Software Online. He and I often discussed our faith and he always concluded that "you and my mom are just alike...a little bit out there." We now know without a doubt that Jason knows his mamma "had it right." He's in heaven based on his own confession and Act 16:31.
Jason was the best. He gave great from-behind hugs especially when I needed them the most. Please know I will be praying for your entire family that your mourning will somehow be sweet and that the "beauty" will quickly come. God bless you especially now.

Dearest Bob, Dee, and Max-
I pray you have God's strength and spirit of love and peace during this unfathomable time. Jason was blessed with such a wonderful family, and a blessing in his own right. We will long remember his smile, laugh, and energetic spirit. One of my favorite holiday memories, repeated year after year, is seeing him, Alan, and Max walking in Teri's door after a long day of "hunting," amidst giggles and wistful smiles! Please know that you are in our thoughts and prayers! Love you all, Mark and Tiffany Gwillim, Hunter, Morgan, and Cali Hudson

To Dr. Emma -- I consulted you ten years ago during great personal distress and, with the jump start of your encouragement, have earned my way back to happiness. I can only express my deep sorrow in learning of your terrible loss -- in just now realizing who this young man belongs to. The good you do comes round again. You will be washed in the love of caring people as you struggle with your grief. With so many others, I offer you and your family what comfort and peace we can.
