We were deeply saddened to hear the news of Jason. Our family was talking the other day about all the things we remembered of Jason.
Some remembered trick or treating with him, others remember him on his bike riding around Mountain Road...We all remember him coming up to the circle to see what activity he could find going on at the Woodworth home. I was explaining to a friend here in Wisconsin how sad I was to hear of the devastating news and she couldn't believe he was my neighbor as her husband went to school with him at BYU. Very small world... My neighbor replied he was one who stood out and everyone knew of Jason. So true...He truly was known and those childhood memories prove that!

To Jason's Family,
I am so sorry for your loss. Jason was a dear friend to me. I have so many fond memories of him, too many to count. A friend like him is irreplaceable. I was always be amazed at how such a young man can do so much and still have so much time for so many friends. I will miss you more than you will ever know Jason. God Bless.

What a terrible tragedy. My prayers go to Jason's wife and daughter, as well as his mother, Pat, who has become a friend to so many of us here in The Villages. Words are too inadequate to express the extent of our sorrow at Jason't death. The world has lost a fine young man.

We will greatly miss Jason. I was so deeply saddened to hear of his death. Tom and I really loved our visits with you and Jason when you came here to Seattle and when we visited you in Utah. We love you guys and hope you take comfort in knowing there is a plan for your life. If you ever need anything we will be here. Jason had a way of making everyone an instant extended family member. We will miss him. Love Peggy and Tom Emery

Laurie, Lilly, and family,
We are so deeply saddened by Jason's passing. Jason was one of the first people my wife and I met when we first moved to Rochester. As you know, Jason had a way of making people feel like a good friend instantly; being new in town, we appreciated it. I remember how excited Jason was when Lily was born. He called me shortly after she was born beaming with pride and joy. I know he loved being a dad and husband.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time,
Peter and Kimberly Glennon.

Laurie: Even though I haven't known you for long, I can't imagine how hard this must be. But remember there is one thing that we can always find comfort in, and that is that Our Heavenly Father's plan will allow us to live together again, and it may be hard now, but He will be there with you and Lilly at all times to guide you and support you. Also, know that you have an entire firm of friends you can count on anytime. Love, Noelia.

Laurie,
Jason was a remarkable person who affected all who knew him. You are also similarly loved, Laurie. Lily and you have been in my prayers since I have heard about Jason. Sometimes as lawyers, we expect to have the right words to say at the exact right moment, and it is frustrating when we do not. I don't know if there are the right words, but I am so sorry, Laurie.
Love,
Leslie
