Jason was a loving husband and family man through-and-through! He was always present at his God children's functions and provided many supportive words of wisdom to encourage and inspire them in their spiritual growth and well-being. One of his favorite things to do was cook and bring family and friends together. We as a family loved his famous homemade pizza which he made every Fall. He also enjoyed his beautiful apple and pear trees, which he planted to celebrate the birth of his two God children. Every autumn he would harvest and can his delicious fresh fruit and share his bounty with family and friends. Jason was also a devoted husband, brother and friend to everyone. If anyone ever needed help with anything, you could always count on Jay to be there. In closing, we celebrate the life of Jason E. Decker, a life happily and faithfully lived. He was a giant of a man, our gentle giant. You will be missed, but your legacy will forever live in our words and in our hearts.
