GIBISONVILLE: Jason Leonard Colliton, 39 of Gibisonville, Ohio went to be with his Lord on Friday, May 29, 2015, after his courageous battle with cancer. He was surrounded by his loved ones at the Pickering House in Lancaster, Ohio.

Jason was born January 15, 1976 in Lancaster, Ohio to David Thomas and Aneta (Whitcraft) Colliton.

Jason was a graduate of Logan High School. He was a sweetheart and had a heart of gold through his compassion and kindness, especially his special smile. Many have said that he lived a life to make them proud to know him as a friend or family member. He cared for people with concern with his whole heart. He loved music, cooking, his church family, his family, and many, many friends he made over the years. He was a loving son, grandson, brother, uncle, nephew, cousin, and was special to all others that he touched. Jason was the rock for his mother and father. He loved his niece Alyson and nephew Justice more that words can express. Jason spent a lifetime in the 4-H family with pride as a member, junior leader, advisor, and supporter of 4-H families and friends. He worked many years at Kroger with very special friendships and also worked for the Inn at Fairfield Village where he showed his caring empathy and respect to so many patients and their families who loved him so.
