I just wanted to write a quick note to all of Jason's friends & family. I met Jason about 5-6 months ago and worked with him a lot over that time. Jason was a truly good person. I can't remember an individual that was such a joy to be around. He was a great person to know and I'm glad that I got to become friends with him. Please accept my sympathies in this time of sorrow.

Jason had such a sweet spirit and a caring nature. As evidenced by the outpouring of love and support, he has left a legacy behind in his all-too-short life. My prayers are with the entire family that you can find strength and comfort in knowing that he is in a better place, and that we will see him again. I wish you peace in the coming weeks and please let me know if there is anything you need.

Jason was so genuine in his love for God and others. He and Danielle have been a continued blessing to my husband and I. It breaks my heart that his Godson, Matthew, won't be able to know him. May God bless all his family and friends.

Jason was one of my best friends in High School. The memories of him and his wonderful smile, his whole-hearted caring, his absolute friendship are still so clear in mind; as if it were just yesterday. I pray that your memories will also help you through this time of grief. My thoughts and prayers are with you and all of Jason's loving family.

Jason was like a real brother to me. We were very real with each other and I have many memories of staying up late praying with him. Danielle, most of his prayers were for you. He loved you long before he ever met you.
I will miss you Jason until I see you again.
