Dear Fann family,

We were saddened to have lost our brother in law enforcement. We recently worked an investigation with Jason and found him to be a true public servant even willing to assist on his days off! May God comfort your family during this difficult time. Our thoughts and prayers are with your family! Jason will always hold a special place in our hearts!

Jason was more than "one of our Deputies". He was a friend. Thank you, Katy, for sharing him with us. I will be praying for you and your family every day. Please call if I can do anything. We have a couple of pens Jason made for use, and I will treasure them.

Words are inadequate for what I'm feeling right now. Jason was my close friend and I loved him dearly. I am truly blessed to have known him and to have been a part of his life. Jason was an amazing guy and was always there when a friend needed help. I will always remember the times and memories we got to share together and cherish them forever! I love you Jason!
