May God Bless the Henderson Family. Jason although I did not know you for long you were a very fun person to be around and you were there to listen to me and encourage me. I wish we stayed in touch more often. I was shocked to find out what happened to you but God makes no mistakes, and now you can be with your mother in a better place. I WILL MISS YOU, like I would always say to you! RIP

No words can express the way i feel at this time. Jason was my cousin, but he was like my son. I've watched him grow into a fine, caring young man, a true example of a true gentleman. He was loved by so many people and I would like to thank everyone for their kind thoughts and prayers. Jason is in the arms of the Lord and he is with his mom Joanne. Justin and Juan you know I am here for you anytime and I love you. God will help us get through this difficult time. Uncle Avery & Trina, Tobias & Anne, I will continue to pray and try to be strong because we all have a long road ahead of us.

I cared about Jason dearly. I knew him since kindergarten when I lived right across the street. We moved and I didn't see Jason again until high school. But when I did he remembered me as I did him. It was clear to me that he had grown up to be a good man. Jason was one of the sweetest, most special people that I have come to know in this life. I'm still devastated by this, but God makes no mistakes. This is for His glory. I thank God that I got back in touch with Jay when I did. Now he is where he will be eternally happy, with his mother and mine. I love you Jason. You are in my prayers, Henderson family. God bless.

To the Family of Jason Henderson,

As an educator you always have students that leave an impact on your life, that give you strength to keep trying to reach and teach. Please know that Jason was just that type of student. He always seemed to find the positive out of the worst situation. As his former Assistant Principal, I will always remember his light that was always shinning so bright during his days at Glenville High School.

May God be with you and know that a community is praying with you for your strenghth and courage!

JASON WILL BE MISSED BUT NEVER FORGOTTEN,IN OUR HEART FOREVER.

Michelle Richardson

Elder/Trina/Justin & Family,

Jason will be truly missed.
A FEW WORDS OF ENCOURAGEMENT DURING THIS DIFFICULT TIME.

Death leaves heartache no one can heal; Love leaves a memory no one can steal. Although it is difficult Today to see beyond the sorrow; may looking back in memory help comfort you Tomorrow. A life watered by the tears of tragedy often becomes the most fertile soil for spiritual growth. Sometimes life is hard to bear; full of sorrow, trouble and woe; It is then we must to remember that it's in the valleys we grow. If we always stayed on the mountain top, and never experienced pain; we would never appreciate God's love, and would be living in vain. We sometimes don’t understand why things happen as they do; but be very sure of one thing;the Lord will see you through.
May God Strengthen & Bless You All.

Elder Avery and LaTrina,

We Love you guys very much. I am grateful for the wonderful job you did as parents for Jason (never allowing him to forget the purpose he was created for.) God has appointed us all come Home eventially. I look at my wife and her bout with Cancer, her surgerys, her side effects from her medication, even her memory loss... and I realize it is because she is the STRONGEST in my family and it is his way of reminding us that suffering is as much appart of Life as Laughter and Love; but through it all He will NEVER Leave us of Forsake us. We Love you.

It saddens me greatly to hear of the passing of Jason. Jason and I went to junior high school together. I remember he would also make riding the school bus fun. He had a great sense of humor and the charisma to make anybody like him. Your family is in my prayers during your time of grieving. Please find comfort in knowing that Jason is in a much better place and that he differently left his mark on the world and the people around him. Jason will be greatly missed.

This situation is bitter sweet because he is now in a better place, hand in hand with God and his mother. I send my condolences to his family. Jason I will never forget you, may you rest in peace.

Henderson family we are praying for you at this time of loss of Jason . I know it will seem as though you will be frozen with this overwhelming grief. I know you don't understand why your lives is filled with this pain and heartache. But turn your eyes to him and seek to find the strength to trust in his faithfulness. You, Lord are a God of comfort and love and I ask you to help them to patiently wait on you and not despair; I pray that you all will quietly wait for his salvation.

He knows that your hearts are crushed, but I know that he will not abandon you forever. I pray that the lord, will show you compassion. He will help you through this pain so that you will hope in him again. Just believe the promise of his Word to send you fresh mercy each day. Though one can't see past today, Just trust in his love and he will never fail you.

Jesus, will come to heal the brokenhearted and he knows your hearts are broken today and only the Lord, can heal your sorrow over losing Jason. I've asked the Lord, to comfort you because he love you and have promised you everlasting consolation and hope through his grace.

Blessed be to God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort; Who comforts your family in all your tribulations, that this family may be protected from any trouble and hurt as they walk with you Lord, through the grief of losing their Loved one. Amen
