I met Jaison through the Indiana Ski Council and enjoyed many weekends racing in Michigan with him. I'll never forget Jaison's "mono-ski". With his feet side-by-side in the bindings, he joked that with this setup, he was sure to break both legs at the same time. But I never saw him fall. My other memories are of Jaison always enjoying himself and encouraging others to do the same.

Such sad news. Jaison had a heart of gold. Kind funny and loved by so many. I used to make fun of his slippers yet now I have indoor, outdoor, gardeing, rain slippers. I counted 5 pairs. Jaison would be proud and all these years later I get it my friend. My heart is heavy as he was truly one of a kind taken too soon. RIP Jaison with much love.

1=was sorry to hear of Jaison's passing. We were neighbors for quite a few years. We shared garden stories about tomatoes etc. Jaidon helped with many neighborhood projects. never shy about letting me know what needed fixing. He stored rain water and always brought me a couple jugs for my inside plants. I moved away from the court after my husband passed away and lost touch with him Rest in Peace Jaison and THANKS for your help and friendship over the years.
