Jason Sanders Obituary
It is with great sadness that we announce the death of Jason Elliott Sanders (born on September 11, 1972), who passed away on May 15, 2025.
Jason Sanders was a beloved son, brother, cousin, father and friend. His sense of humor will leave an impression on all who knew him.
Left to honor Jason and remember his love are his daughter, Paris, his brother Merwyn, along with countless close friends and family whom were blessed to know him. Jason was predeceased by his loving mother, Anna Sanders, and father, Merwyn H. Sanders.
In 1995, an event that brought him immense joy, Jason became a father to a wonderful child, Paris Jackson Sanders. Jason will always be remembered as someone who was there for you when it counted and for his love for family. Although we are saddened by his departure, it is a blessing to know he truly is in a better place.
