I am so sorry to hear of your loss.

Jason was very special to me when we were teenagers. I keep thinking of him biking over in high school with new music to share with me, after we first met - talking heads, new order.. and making me listen to tangerine dream. I'll always remember him as the big sweetie with the goofy smile.



Please accept my sincere sympathies to each of you at this awful time.

To the Roy and Romoli families....Although we do not remember Jason as an adult, we do remember the little cutie running around nana's yard on Division St. Wish we had been lucky enough to have known the adult Jason. If only we could slow life down to allow us enough time to share with all of the people who mean so much to us. Please know our thoughts and prayers are with you all.

Love .....George, Lois and family

I heard the news yesterday and am still stunned. After reflecting back on all the camping trips to Maine and tromping around the woods in back of the house on Walker St, I realize it was Jason who helped spark my interest in the outdoors, a long time ago.

Jason will be sorely missed and my heart goes out to his family

Judy and Family,

My deepest heartfelt sympathy goes out to you and your family for this unimaginable tragic loss.



I will always have fond memories of the very many Christmas Eves that my family and I spent at your house. My sister and I always enjoyed and looked forward to getting together with Jason, Adam, and Seth every year. It had been many years since I had seen Jason and then a couple of years ago when I did run into him, he talked to me as if it was just yesterday since we had seen each other. I was so impressed with his magnetic, fun-loving, outgoing personality and the man he had become.

He will be greatly missed and will forever be in my thoughts and prayers.

May god bless you during this very difficult time.

Love Always,

Your Cousin Barbie
