I have a lot of memories but my favorites are when we bowled together. He wanted to win but no matter what he wanted to beat my score. I am gonna miss him for sure. I also remember how proud he was of getting a new place and having his kids live with him. Gonna miss him my deepest sympathies to his family. RIH Jason.

Jason was always kind to me in the time that I knew him. He was one of those people that I instantly felt safe around. Rest easy, my friend
