Jason Ronald Bender, born August 22, 1969, passed away, December 30, 2022. He was 53 years old. He was a graduate of the University of Delaware and Johnson and Wales Culinary Institute. Jason enjoyed life and always had an easy smile. He loved talking to people and was always up for a good conversation, especially when it came to the Pittsburgh Steelers. Many of us were well fed by the fabulous meals he would prepare. It made him proud to be able to serve a meal to share with his family and friends.
The memories of this wonderful man should be shared and remembered. His smile, his laugh and for those who knew him best, how much he cared. Jason was truly loyal to those he loved. Let this be the legacy he leaves behind. Please come to share your stories and memories with Jason's family. A luncheon to celebrate his life will be held on Sunday, January 29, 2023, from 1:00 to 4:00 pm at the Amvets Post 2, 32592 Long Neck Road, Millsboro, DE 19966.
Jason joined his grandparents in heaven: Jim and Verna Mareno, Elsie and Bob Bender as well as his stepfather Dwight Long. He is survived by his mother Robyn Long, brother John Bender and Father John Bender (Carole). He also leaves behind his nephew John Dannaway (Sammi).
