Scats as he was affectionately known by his closest friends and family, was a shining light in the lives of all who had the privilege of knowing him.

Those who knew Jason will remember him for his infectious smile and over-whelming laughter, his deep rooted faith in family. His love for the out doors and gun enthusiast. He had a rare gift for making others smile and laugh, leaving a lasting impact on all who crossed his path. Jason was the most kind caring man who would give you his last penny or the shirt off his back. He was always around to lend that helping hand where needed. He was a loving husband and father. And will be missed deeply.
