It's taken me a minute to show my respects, Jason, but you've definitely been running through my mind over the last few months. I'm so sorry about what happened.. I never thought that you'd be gone so soon. I will always remember you and the old memories will never fade away. It's been a long time since we were youngens but those were good times; some of the best times :) Rest peacefully, and I'll see you when I get up there. Love and respect to the family. XOXOXO

Wow is all I can say. My condolenses to Jason's family. He was a friend of my daughter Jacqui's when we lived in Los Prados. I remember seeing him all the time and he had that big smile and would always wave. This is such a tragedy and I am really blown away by this.
God Bless You Jason!

Jason, or as you once said, "The Hector Inspector" we're gonna miss your friendship, silliness, and fun. I'll never forget all those morning bike rides to St. Tim's and Wild Bill's. Wish we could do it again. "I gotta get me a new piece to fix my bike..." I hope the best for you and your family.

Ana and Stephanie,

I was soo deeply saddened when I heard the news! My condolences to you and your dear family. I pray that the LORD would give you peace and grace during this time. I want you to know that Jason is with the Lord now, he is a child of GOD and while I was with him he was really thirsty about knowing about God and the day I took him to church he was really touched and came out blessed. So I want to confirm in your heart that Jason is in a much better place than we are and his spririt of joy with be shared by all. My love goes out to you.

Jay,
I'll miss your loud entry, your warm embrace, your big smile and your little teeth...lol. Your "dunkin on fools" stories; the gusto with which you enjoyed music. There are so many things we will miss that to try and name them all would be impossible. Although you are no longer here in body; your spirit, your cheer, and your love will always be here.

This tragedy has forever changed our family and there isn't anyone who can fill the void your passing has left. Our consolation is in knowing that you are in the Lord's realm and though your present is not with us, your spirit will always be among us. We are left with a myriad of beautiful memories that weave themselves into our daily lives. We love you, and we will see you at home!

Love you,
Rosie, Jazzy, and your 'Uncle' Dave (:-)

Ana,

Although we just met at my brother Ben's funeral your family and my family share the same pain over the tragic deaths of both Ben and Jason. May the Lord Jesus Christ comfort you and your daughter and give you the strength to bare this immense pain. Only God knows why and when things happen and we need to know that both of them are in a much better place. Just know that God needed 2 more angels in heaven and Jason and Ben have a wonderful room in heaven.

God bless you.

Jason (Lurch),

We have been at such a loss for words since we heard the news...and in some ways we still are. The shock is just now starting to wear off and an empty hole is widening. It's so hard to believe that you are gone.

We will always remember all the happy times we shared and those memories will never fade. You will remain alive in our hearts and minds always.

Ana & Stephanie,

We are so sorry for your loss. Jason has touched so many lives in his brief time with us here, that although you have lost a son and brother, you have gained an extremely large "family" who will always be here for you. You are in our thoughts and prayers.

We wanted to thank you for such a beautiful tribue in celebration of his life today.

He will be missed deeply until we see him when it's time for each one of us to go home.

We love you Jason!
Until we meet again...

Jason Lurch Gamino,

I can't believe that you are actually gone. You were a great person with a big heart who always loved to goof around and make everyone else smile. You took good care of me when I needed it and I'm sorry I couldn't be there when you asked for me. I will always regret not getting a chance to say goodbye. You went too soon, but the best ones always do. Rest in peace Lurch, you finally got your wings. My condolences to the friends and family left behind.

Jason,
I am so saddened by this tragedy and the loss of such a wonderful life and soul. Your heart has always been huge and you've always been a dear friend to me. I'll always remember our good times and great memories growing up together and even until now. I could always count on you for anything and looked up to you like a brother. I am going to miss your laugh and funny sense of humor. You are going to be greatly missed by all! My heart pours out to your sister, Mother and family. They'll be in my prayers forever. Words can't express how sorry I feel for them. It was not your time to go, this is so unfair. I'll choose to always remember how you lived, and not the way you were taken from us.

May you rest in peace my friend. Our friendship will never be forgotten and your life and spirit will FOREVER live on.

With all my love, RachaelAlison

May 21, 2008

I remember looking up from my desk
at St. Timothy School and seeing a
familar face that I had not seen in
years. Jason had a big smile on his
face and I got a huge hug and he
said, "Mrs. Allen I'm back." I told him
how happy I was to see him and we
went to look at his graduation picture hanging in the hallway. Later
I was at home and looked up and there was Jason standing at my front
door. He told me he was moving in
around the corner and he would be seeing me often. Which we did. Jason told me "Mrs. Allen when ever I think of St. Tim's I always remember how nice you were to me".
I will always remember your smiling
face Jason. You have left a mark on
my heart. Love you, Mrs. Allen

Jason Aka Lurch,

We miss you so much. I wish this was all just a bad dream ...but unfortunately it's not. You were a great man and will always be. You knew just how to put a smile on everyones face and brighten up a sad day. You will always be loved more and more, as each day goes by. Unfortunately Lost ... but never forgotten.

"We miss u more than you could know
We miss your beautiful smile,
The way u could make us laugh,
And make everything worth while.

We think about u everyday
And dream of u at night,
Just picturing your happy grin,
Makes everything all right.

I just sit and wonder,
Why we did'nt get to say goodbye,
To say the things we needed to,
The day you learned to fly.

We know your always with us,
Although we are apart,
BUT JASON, WE ALL LOVE YOU,
FOREVER IN OUR HEARTS."


We love you,
Blair
