I spent a lot of time with Mason while he was working on our tools. He spoke highly of his family and was always proud of Joe Jr. He told me he always wanted to go to a NASCAR Race, so we went to Talladega and we had a blast. He would always bring it up when I visited him and we would laugh about it. I Pray for Ms. Carolyn and Melanie for comfort. Mason was a good friend and will definitely be missed. I bet him and Joe Jr. are cutting up right now. I’m sorry that I couldn’t make it to his Service.

Hello Mrs. Mason,
He was a good friend and I’ll miss him. We would eat thick sliced baloney, onion and bread sandwiches in power tool crib. Joining us was Dan Tomlinson and Mark Pionke. Great memories!!! My thoughts and prayers are with him.

Mason was my friend at church and at work for many years. I always enjoyed talking with Mason because he was always friendly and kind. When he was at Nissan as a maintenance technician, he ran the Tool Crib for many years. Employees would
come to him for parts that were needed on a
repair, so he was very happy in that position.
Now, he is full of joy because he is in Heaven
with no more breathing problems. I know Mason is smiling now.
