JASON LaRUE Obituary
Mar. 21, 1973 ~ Dec. 1, 2011
Our beloved son, brother, husband, and dad, Jason LaRue, passed away unexpectedly Dec. 1st. He was born on March 21, 1973 in Chico, CA to Roy and Adrianna LaRue, the youngest of four children. He was raised in Chico, and had lived in Vancouver, WA for many years.
Jason was a security technician and is loved and respected by the many people he came into contact with.
"Jason always had a great sense of humor and the ability to make people laugh. He was so gentle and kind and was always the first to offer a helping hand."
Jason is survived by his mother, Adrianna (Bill) Lundquist of Sparks, NV; his wife, Melody, and three beloved children, Hannah, Natasha and Connor LaRue of Vancouver, WA; his brother, Roy Jr.; and step-mother, Angela LaRue of Chico, CA; his sisters, Dara (Mel) Reynolds and Juliette (Tony) Travis of Orland, CA; grandparents; several nieces and nephews, and many wonderful friends.
He was preceded in death by his father, Roy LaRue, Sr. in Oct. 2011.
"He will be greatly missed by so many people in Vancouver and Chico."
A celebration of Jason's life will be held in Chico, CA at a later date. Please check Jason's Facebook page for location and time.
Please sign Jason's guestbook at: www.columbian.com/obits

I have only recently learned of Jason's passing. I knew him briefly during his time in NW Washington. We had some good times in the short time between when I met him and when he moved away. He made a great impact on me. He left a lasting impression and I only wish I had met him earlier. He was a truly great person. I am very sorry to his family and friends for your loss.

As a close friend to you, I remember these fun times we had. We didn't know each other very well just yet so it was an incredible gesture of kindness when you invited me to your home in Everett. You had a large batch of spaghetti cooked up. The house was small and it seemed frail but it looked to be a comfortable dwelling. At one point I asked to use your restroom and you pointed me in the right direction, you said that it was back through the living room and around the corner of this smaller room at the front end of the house... you had a dresser in that small room and you added, "keep out of my underwear drawer." That cracked me up, and the other guys you had over as well. The rest of that night we spent eating pasta, drinking beer, talking about the Slayer gig I wasn't able to attend and that dystopian sci-fi book you had by Ward Kendall. I assumed you liked to read alot, I remember the bookshelf you had in the living room, the small kitchen, the computer in small space next to it.. I think if any of your family is reading this, they'll remember it too.
This was 2002, I was 19 at the time but it was all like 'yesterday'. The memory still comes back to me every time I'm in the city of Everett. I look back and think of all the stupid things I did in my youth (back then) and it's really hard to understand why anybody would've invited me over to hang out - but you did, and it still seems to me like an incredible act of kindness on your part.
Alot has changed since then and just like you, I'm a family man now as well. I wish you were still here today to meet my two year old son, Franz and my wife, Tania.
When I think of you today, I always hope your family is doing well.

My dear Jason, love, playmate, friend. I understand this guest book will be coming down soon. I just wanted you to know that you are still in my thoughts every day. I wish you were here with me but am learning to accept that you are not. I hope to continue to move on and heal until one day we meet again. I will always love you and know you are with me at times. I am glad you are happy and at peace. Please watch over me and help me to heal....not goodbye but see you again. I love you Jason Larue.

Hi Jason.
It is almost a year since you passed and we all still love you so much and thank of you every day. It is still very hard to go on with out you, but I know you would kick buts if we do not get on with things. So we are.
The kids are great and doing well in school and Hannah is working. All is well with them.
I miss you more than words can express, but you know my heart is with you always.
Just one thing I wanted to say, may you and your Dad rest in peace until I get there, than let the nagging begin...LOL. Love you so much son. Mom

Thinking of you everyday. I am having so much fun with Connor and Natasha. We went to Coconut Bowl today and swimming yesterday. Movies tomorrow. They are such wonderful children and I know you are so proud of them. We all miss you and we talk about memories we all have of you. I miss you so very much my son and love you. I am not going to see Hank3 this year. I may not share that memory with anyone else. Just keep it to myself.

Happy Father's Day Jason. I know this is your first Father's day in heaven with your Dad, but I miss you so much. I know this has been a difficult day for your children and I have thought of them all day.
My tears keep falling at unexpected times. Just little things that make me think of you.
You are in my heart always my son.

Hi Jason, I am so sorry that I have not written in your guest book for so long. Sometimes it is very hard to express what I am feeling. I talk to you in my soul and spirit. I miss you so...I missed your birthday wishes b ut i could feel you with me in spirit. Thank you for being with me and the rest of your loved ones that are still here.
Hannah graduated last week and you must be very proud of her. You and Melody have done a great job raising her and the other children. Connor is riding his bike like a little pro. Melody posted a video on facebook. he is so cute. Natasha's future career in fashion looks very promising. She is so sweet and could be a model if she wanted to be.
We all think of you and miss you so much.
I love you so much my son. We will all be together one day, laughing and pulling pranks on each other.
See ya son.
Love, Mom

My first Mother's day without you. It is a sad day. Thinking of you and missing your Mom's day greeting. Your children are doing well. Natasha met a famous fashion designer and she is walking on air. Hannah is so excited about her move. We will all miss her, Connor is still goofy and such a sweet boy. We all miss you and love you. Praying for you my son. I know you are happy where you are. We will be together again one day.

You lit a candle with three wicks for me in my dream the other night. One in honor of my aunt, your dad and you. So I am lighting one for you Jason. Thank you for helping me through all of this spiritually. You are still present and that makes me feel so much better.

First, my deepest sympathies to the family for your loss.
Jason was a wonderful person, very kind and gregarious, and also quite the character. I always enjoyed chatting with him, especially about heavy metal, and just general joking around. To say that he is missed is a gross understatement. Rest in peace, Jason, and know that you've influenced several people for the better during your life.
Eric Powell

Jason, I only met you a few times, but we always had great conversations about music and life! We shared a love for Hank III and I raise my beer to you! The good one's always go young… Very sad. Eric Powell

Jason, thanks for always having faith in me. You never had any doubts about us in Puyallup, you helped us with the materials we needed but most of all you blessed us with your presence, strength of character and incredible sense of humor. Everyone you came in contact with had very high opinions about you. You made things easy, comfortable and fun -, at times you riddled the difficult things we were experiencing with such comedy that it had me rolling with laughter. You were a man of strength, charisma and humor yet you were also a man of steadfast discipline and unrivaled moral fortitude. You've influenced me alot and now it breaks my heart to see you go. Thank you for everything, you will always be my brother. I won't ever forget you and someday, someplace, we'll do it all again.
January 22, 2012
Dear Jason,
I miss you so much. I am trying my best to carry on, as you would want me too, but it is harder with each passing day.
There was so little time in the short 38 years you were here to say every thing i wish i could share with you.
I know i should be grateful that I had you that long as lot of Mothers do not have a chance to be with their children for that long, but it does not help me at this point.
I know it will get easier to accept that you are truely gone as time goes by, but not right now. I love you and miss you so much.
Sometimes I can still hear you say "I love you,Mom". And "hey Mamalou what's up?" so remember to greet me that way when I join you some day.
In the mean time, Melody is doing a great job with the kids, who miss you so much. We will have them a lot this summer I hope.
Anyway have a great time in heaven with your Dad and all of your uncles.
I guess Roe and Cindy will have to go to see Hank3 with me this year.
Love you lots, Mom

My Dear Sweet Jason,
I had a dream about you and Roy the night before New Years Eve... it was beautiful! Of course, I woke up sobbing. After I calmed down and gained my composure, I felt so much better.
The three of us were hanging out, cooking, laughing, and having a few drinks as we always did when you were in town. You came to me in my dream in your heavenly body. You were absolutely flawless! You were sporting your long hair, pulled back in a pony tail, both eyes, very lean and beautiful. You gave me the BIGGEST huge that I have ever received from you, held me for the longest time and told me you are OK, everything is OK and to make sure that I tell everyone I saw you, that you are alright, to share your hugs and kisses and that you love us all!
Thank you so much for your presence in my dreams and for the gift of peace you shared!
I still miss you and always will, my friend! I feel so fortunate that you have touched me with your spirit to share your love, hugs and kisses with all your family and friends. I am so blessed, once again by your sweet and presence in life, and now in heaven.
I heard the news today of your ultimate gift to someone else in need. This is so like you and your generous soul and you wouldn't have had it any other way. The gift of sight to someone that was blind! I smiled and cried at the same time. What bitter sweet news!
I love you and miss you, Jason.
In the spirit of your request.... I am passing on all your love, hugs and kisses to all of those you love.
All our love, hugs and kisses right back at you!
Cindy
January 1, 2012
Thank you my wonderful son, for giving sight to someone who was blind. I will always love you and cherish you. You are as special in heaven as you were here with us.

Jason...God...I will miss you so much! I have known you since you were 6 years old. I still see you as that sweet little doe eyed, kind little soul. I always have seen that in you. I have been so proud of the man you've become and the father you will always be. I feel so fortunate that you have been in my life, as I know everyone else that crossed your path must have felt that too. Words can't describe how much grief I feel, but I am comforted knowing that you are with Roy and that both of you are watching over all of the people you love. I have a feeling there are some jokes going on between the two of you about all of us. That makes me smile and feel sooo much better!! I love you Jason. I will ALWAYS!
December 17, 2011
You are loved so much, my son. I know that you are watching over us all and giving us comfort. Thank you for teaching us how to enjoy our time here. I know your love and concern for us all continues. We miss you.
My Beloved and Beautiful LaRue Boy's having a great time!

Jason-my dear sweet friend,
I am so blessed to have met you, known you and I truly cherish the moments spent with you, and most of all, the memories that You, Roy (Roe) and I share. The three of us had so much fun together and experienced a bond like nothing I ever experienced, nor will I ever again!
I am so thankful to have met you, that Roy introduced us, and that I was able to share your brotherly bond and the purest friendship I've ever witnessed.
I will miss our heartfelt conversations, our laughs, our tears over the loss of your Pa, our chatting, our text messaging, our dinners, your love of cooking, and sharing my cooking tips and recipes for you and your kids. I am so blessed to have met your family and will always cherish our memories.
You, Roy, and your entire family, are the most genuine, kind and thoughtful people I've ever met in my life! You are all so sweet, so caring and genuinely interested in the person you are speaking with. Each and every one of you would walk through fire and sacrifice your own life to reach out to or help a family member or friend. Especially my beloved LaRue Boy's!!! You, Roy and your Dad are so dedicated and hold true to the steadfast commitment to your families, your children, and the ultimate respect of women. It's very RARE these days to find such chivalry still present and branded in the deepest depth of your souls! My hat is off to Roy Senior, Adrianna and their spouses Angie and Bill. You have done a wonderful job raising your children and I know that you are extremely proud of each of them and the individuals them become. Your legacy will live on in your children, their children's children and forever.
You, Roy Jr. and your Dad possess and inherently radiate the sweetest and gentle being of any man or men I've met. Not one, or two, but all three of you carry yourselves with such grace and a beautiful soul.
Each one of you never went anywhere or showed up to visit empty handed….. I cherish these memories and I am forever touched by your thoughtfulness and generosity.
Even when you came to dinner, you always insisted on doing the dishes! And, boy can I make a mess when cooking for my friends. It was a big challenge but, you and Roy were always willing to step up to handle the task.
I promise you, Jason, my friend, that I will do whatever it takes to keep your spirit and memory alive for you, your family and especially for your children! I will communicate and visit as often as possible and help Melody in any way possible.
It's hard to imagine our lives without you, but painfully we are reminded every time we think of you or grab our phones to text or call you. I can't stop crying for the void in our lives, but most of all for your family!
Life is so unfair, especially when someone like you is taken so unexpectedly! We will never understand how or why we lost you. We can only hold on to the memories of how blessed we are to have been a part of your life. I love you and miss you so much! My heart aches so deeply for your family, words cannot express my sorrow for each and every one of you.
In lieu of flowers, I choose to sponsor a lasting legacy by keeping your Guest Book online forever. To all your beloved family and friends, please keep posting and sharing your feelings, your grief, your happy memories and even anger at times to help you and all others to endure this very difficult process. The grieving process is very diverse for each individual and will manifest in many different ways.
To all Jason's family-
My deepest condolences and heartfelt sorrow goes out to you all. Please feel my prayers, my warmth, my hugs, my kisses and my forever embrace. I am so touched and overwhelmed by your selflessness and allowing me to be a part of the love and passion for Jason as he lives on in our hearts and memories forever!

As I sit looking through pictures of my life with Jason - the places we went, the people we met, the memories we made - I can't help but smile as the tears fall. As I take a deep breath I find myself grateful that I knew Jason, that I loved Jason, and that I shared part of Jason's life with him. I will never be able to fill the void in our children's hearts, but I will do my best to make sure they live happy and healthy lives. They are Jason's legacy... a big part of his mark on this world.

If I had a single flower for every time I think about you, I could walk forever in my garden. I miss you more everyday!

I really miss You SOOOOO much alreayd, please give Papa a big hug for me, and have lots of fun with him, like, eating lunch in Hawaii, and going to the store and finding really yummy vegan foods, and I will keep lots of your things to remember you by, ( including your laptop, hahahahaha, i told you i would get it someday!) and i will make sure to give my kids some of the very special things. I will continue to do the puzzles we did together, and remember all the fun things.

Jason is someone no one could ever forget, and I never ever will. He was someone who created memories for people, wasn't just there to witness them.
