I still have not forgot, i pray he is with god and his family is watched over by god as well. I cannot imagine the pain lillie has had to endure with her loss, when I first saw this story it brought me to tears for such a young family being torn apart in this way.

My heart felt condolences to all who loved this young man. I had just got home from the National Cemetery, where my parents are buried right next to Jason.The plot had been vacant since my mom was buried there in 2009, and it broke my heart to see such a young man. Fortunately for my family, we live and were raised within 2-3 miles of cemetery, and have the fortune to visit there often. It's such a spiritual and calming place. Just know that my dad would be very proud to have such a distinguished young soldier resting next to him, and my mom would embrace him in heaven like her own grandchild. Jason will be thought of whenever my family or I visit our mom and dad. Peace and comfort to you all.
