Memories and Condolences
for Jason Goodwin
Rev. Shawn Williams

Jason was a blessing to me. To see Christ grow and shape his life, and still shaping others through his life has been an inpiration to me to continue following Jesus. I've counted the cost and I'm taking up my cross to follow Jesus. I have been able to share Jason's story with many students in churches and CSA and it has been powerful.

Dr. Mary Goodwin & Family,
Our sincere condolences go out to you and your family. Jessica is one of your patients. You have been seeing Jessica because her sister (our daughter),was killed in a car accident on 11/27/05. We understand your pain and grief. When we heard what happened with your son Jason, we just could not believe it. You have been so good to Jessica and us. We want to give you the same support that you have given us during our pain and loss of our daughter Ashley. We don't understand why things happen the way they do. We feel that God put Ashley and Jason here on earth for a specific reason. They have touched the lives of so many people. Just know that they are in a better place now, and that they are smiling down on us, and one day we will be with them again. We feel that God has brought you in our lives for us to help each other through this trying time. This we know, has changed our lives forever. Please feel free to contact us at anytime day or night. We want to be here for you and your family. God Bless you all!

My thoughts and prayers are with everyone that Jason's life touched. I didn't know Jason but his father has always taken good care of my daughter. Dr. Goodwin's advice to my daughter was to join Cru when she went to UK, and he prayed with her. He knew the one she would need the most help from when leaving home was God. I guess he knew from experience with the life that Jason has led. If only every child could find what Jason found in the Lord. May God be with all of you during this difficult time.

My thoughts and prayers are with you all in this difficult time. I know you have been blessed by the words of those who knew Jason personally and were impacted by his life and love for Jesus. May the impact of his life live on in the lives of those who knew him!

Mary and family:
Though we have lost touch for many years, I know that Colin and Jason were still friends. I remember the games in Ashland and camp-outs at our farm in Boyd county with all of the boys.
My heart, thoughts and prayers are with you during this time.

I became friends with Jason back in middle school when we were on the soccer team together. He was a great person; kind hearted and vibrant. He could be goofy at times, but was quite intelligent. I regret that our paths diverged when we left Ashland and that we didn't hang out more when he moved to Lexington. I am a better person for having known him.

Jason was a friend of mine while I was in engineering at UK and at Porter Memorial Baptist. His vision for leading others to Christ was inspiring to all who were around him and made a big impact on my life. He will truly be missed.

Jason was tough, courageous, and fun loving. Loves to have fun and Loves the Lord, which at times were intimidating for me while we spent 10 weeks in Clearwater, FL. However, his passion was contagious and I hope to carry on the torch living for Christ in His grace. I am so happy for him as he is at the foot of Our Lord shouting praise with his hands up (like he always does)! See you soon, but not yet.

Jason was in my fluid mechanics class. He was a very bright young man and an ideal student to have in a class. I have lost a good student...

To Jason's Family:
I never want you to doubt the impact Jason had on Lexington, the University of Kentucky, and anyone he came across, for Christ. He will be missed so much, but there is no doubt to anyone who knew him that he's with Jesus at this very moment. You are in the prayers of many.

To the family…
I pray that the Lord be your comforter in this time of mourning, and that the peace that surpasses all understanding may be manifested in each of you.
To Jason…
Words can't describe just how great of a person you were and how you touched so many around you.
I had the awesome privilege to know you back around 2000 - 2001. You were a special guy to say the least. The joy of the Lord just beamed from you, no matter the circumstances. You always kept a smile on your face, and I always felt you had a deep compassion for those around you. You had such a love for your friends and were very eager to share with them the love of Christ.
We eventually lost contact, you going your way and I mine. There were times when I would think about you and other guys we would hang out with. I would think how I miss the friendship and Christian fellowship, of which, you were a great friend and an outstanding Christian brother.
I was just thinking last week how I was hoping to catch back up with everyone. When I heard the news, it didn't seem real... and it still doesn't. I feel sorrow, but yet I know there is a joy inside me. The joy comes from knowing that you are where you've always longed to be, resting in the light of Jesus. I will always remember you as a wonderful friend, a beautiful person and an amazing man of God.
It was an honor to know you, and I am looking forward to seeing you again in Glory.
Your friend and brother in Christ,

I met Jason on a Summer Mission Project in Clearwater Beach, FL our freshman year of college. I remember many fun outings with him and his friend Adam to CiCi's Pizza. I remember one night in particular at our Monday Night Meeting when he shared his testimony in front of the whole group. From that time he grew leaps and bounds in his walk with God and learned so much that summer. I am really happy that I had the chance to meet him and spend 11 memorable weeks getting to know him.
On behalf of all of the folks on that missions trip, I hope that you will feel comforted as we continue to pray for you through this time.

Mary and family,
Please accept our sincere condolences and our heartfelt apologies for not being able to attend Jason's funeral. You are all in our daily prayers throughout this difficult time.
Mary, although we did not know Jason personally, your love and admiration for him was always so apparent when you spoke about your family.
May God give you the strength and courage to get through the following days and the peace of mind to know that Jason is now with his Lord.

Jason will surely be missed, but our hearts rejoice knowing that he has met his Creator. Jason reflected the love of Christ to whomever he made contact with. His life has not ended, it has just begun.

To the Goodwin Family, you are in my thoughts and prayers. I am so sorry for your loss.
You may not know me-I am the older sister of David-a friend of Jason's. I want to let you know how thankful I am that my brother had the honor of meeting Jason. Jason was a heaven sent friend to David. Jason was ALWAYS there for David whenever he needed him--no matter what. I had the pleasure of meeting him several times and I must say he was truely one of a kind! Being around him made you want to lead a better life--that was just effect he had on those around him. His kind words and loving ways will sadly be missed.
Jason- I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for never turning your back on my brother and always having faith in him. I will never forget the impact you have left on both of us. We will never forget your loving ways.

Dr. Goodwin and family:
There are no words that I can say that will take the place of the void that is in your lives. But I read where God said to confort ye with this words, "God said that he would not put more on you than you could bear", "cast your cares upon me for I care for you" My family and I will be praying for you and also will ask the church that I am blessed to pastor to remember you and ask the Lord to give you strength in the time of need. May God Bless
