Jason Baldridge Obituary

Jason Baldridge, 50, of Inverness, Florida, passed away on April 17, 2025. Born on March 17, 1975, in Rockford, Illinois. Jason lived a life rooted in family and faith.

Raised in a Christian household, Jason actively attended church during his youth – a foundation that shaped his values and guided him throughout his life. He carried those principles into adulthood as a devoted husband, father, grandfather, and brother.

Jason is lovingly remembered by his wife, Shannon Baldridge; his daughters Caitlyne Baldridge (and her husband Alan), Alyssa Sonnier (and her husband Jackson), Bryanah Baldridge, and Jaylah Baldridge; and his cherished grandsons Easton, Colton, and Kaleb. He also leaves behind his sister Tamarah Baldridge, his nephews Isaiah and Andre, and niece Natasjah along with his grandmother Jeanne LaValley. Jason was preceded in death by his parents, Rhen Straub and Robert Baldridge and grandfather Dick LaValley.

A true family man at heart, Jason found joy in spending time with his loved ones-whether it was sharing laughter around the house or creating memories outdoors. His passion for family was evident in the many years he raised four daughters alongside his wife, Shannon. He also enjoyed fishing, photography and air-soft activities – interests that reflected both his adventurous spirit and creative eye.

To honor Jason's life and legacy, a Celebration of Life will be held on June 7th, 2025, at the Baldridge Residence in Inverness, Florida (34450). Family and friends will gather to remember the warmth he brought into their lives and the lasting impact of his presence.

May Jason's memory bring comfort to all who knew him and continue to inspire love and togetherness among those he held dear.
