Jason Brajer Obituary

YOUNGSTOWN - Jason Brajer, 42, passed away unexpectedly at home on February 25, 2024.

He was born in Youngstown on September 23, 1981 to John Brajer and Sandra (Folsom) Brajer. 

Jason was a 1999 graduate of Austintown Fitch High School. He worked as a roofer for many years. 

In his spare time, Jason found solace in jamming to music of every kind, fishing locally with his favorite spot being Lake Milton and took pleasure in cooking his catch for his loved ones. His most cherished moments were spent making people laugh, using his memories to connect and reminisce. 

Jason will be dearly missed by his parents, John Brajer of Canfield and Sandra Folsom Brajer of Youngstown; his daughters; Melody Brajer of Akron, Mia Brajer and Aubrey Brajer both of Youngstown; sister Sarah (Benjamin) Tessean of Mineral Ridge; brothers Steven Brajer of Austintown and John (Brenna) Brajer of Columbus; as well as nephews Dylan, Cameron, Derek, and Zack.

He was preceded in death by his paternal grandparents Marilyn Brajer and Andrew (Dee) Brajer, maternal grandparents Glenn and Marjorie Folsom; aunt Lynn Huffman; uncle Darrell Huffman; and aunt Patricia Ruane.

Family and friends may call Saturday, March 2, 2024 from 10 am to 12 pm noon at the Higgins-Reardon Funeral Homes, Austintown Chapel, followed by a funeral service at noon.
