Oh my gosh, Jason. I remember the day you started at Nationwide Insurance. We talked a lot because of our connection to growing up in Pennsylvania. I'm so sorry. You left this planet way too soon. You were the first person I ever saw who had their ears gaged! God bless you. And your family.

I know that we have all suffered a huge loss in Jason's passing. It is Kevin and Valarie who have lost the most. A parent should never go through something this heartbreaking. My heart goes out to the both of them. I hurt for Juan, Andy and all of Jason's relatives. I also hurt for my loss, a loss of who I not only called my nephew, but also my friend. Jason's smile and his love for life will remain in our hearts forever. Kevin, Valarie, Andy and Juan, I am sorry for your loss and pray that you will find your strength in knowing that he will not suffer any more. Spread those wings Jason. You earned them.

August 27, 2017

Our thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.

Val and Kevin, Our deepest sympathy to you both. Words cannot express our sorrow for you right now.
