Dear Jason,
Thinking of you today as I watch Premier League soccer on TV. We had fun times on the soccer pitch. I no longer play as you may well know. I am getting on in age and as time marches on my knees hurt and my hips creak! Thought I'd try and make you laugh. That smile of yours will always be with me. Take care my friend. Remembering you fondly.

Dear Jason,
Another year gone by since you left us. Time flies, I know but you are not forgotten. Even though I only knew you on the soccer pitch, our friendship was a strong one. I believe it will be that way for a long time. I miss you my friend.

Dear Jason, I cannot believe it has been 12 years since your passing. As I watch the World Cup on TV, I am remembering you and the good, fun times we spent playing soccer. I hope you are watching the games as well. There have been some thrillers my friend. Take care my friend. God bless you and your family

Jason,
You have been in my thoughts and prayers these last few weeks. I miss seeing you around the soccer field. You were always so kind to me and my children. I miss you, my friend.

Jason,

You will be missed, by anyone and everyone that was fortunate enough to get to know you. I was lucky enough to have been able to have Jason coach softball with me and those seasons were by far the most fun I had coaching. He had a love for life and was a genuinely fun person to be around. You always had the best view on life of anyone I have ever met. I will miss running into you around town. Thanks for all you ever did for me, for making me laugh, and for just being the great guy you really were.

I was very sad to hear of Jason's passing. I encountered him briefly, taking care of him in the hospital. He had such loving things to say about his family and talked about how much he had to live for. He really made an impression on me as someone who lived his short life with love and passion. I am very sorry to his family for your loss.

Pick family,
My thoughts are with you during this terrible time. I ran into Jason a couple of times at the infusion center. He was an energetic life force in a place that often saps a person of their “spark”. You couldn’t help but be drawn to him as he came through the door. I can only imagine that he was like that 24/7. He will be missed.

I consider myself so lucky that i was able to spend 16 years of my life with such a truely amazing man. I cant even begin to express how much i love you, and how much you will be missed. You were the best dad i could ever have asked for, i was blessed to have you in my life.

Dear Brian, Hope & Family,
We are sorry to hear about Jason's passing. I know how courageous he must've been by living with cancer for 2 years, I just lost my brother last Tues, 23rd to pancreatic cancer. It is a courageous battle to fight,yet it brings us all together to love, embrace & realize how precious life is. Patty & I had the honor of knowing Jason as a young man, growing up in the industry we all shared and remember him as a beautiful kind man, sweet with that amazing spirit & smile. We share your saddness and loss but know that he is at peace in a place we all can only dream of being. Big hugs & many prayers to you, Jasons young family & friends,
Love,
Jeannie Bewley

From our family to yours, with love

Hey my Bro-in-Law Jason, I have now assumed the title of prettiest Son-in-Law in the family, sorry Dean. Dude, I miss you already. The family gatherings are not nearly as interesting without you. At 41, you were too f'ing young to die. Thanks for the many years of good times and many laughs. Spending time with you, Jill and the kids are some of my best memories. Miss you bro, Scott

Jason Pick I can't even put into words how much I will miss you..
I keep going to this just to see your happy, smiling face, I can't believe you are not here. It's very surreal. I keep expecting your text messages that read "put a smile on your face it's a beautiful day" when you were so sick yourself. I will forever miss your positive outlook on life, your silly laugh (I can hear it now),smile, yes even your funny little insults.. You certainly had a very special way about you JP...people loved to be around you. Jill, Breanne,and Cameron the heartache of your loss is unimaginable. I will be there for you always. We will always cherish the memories our families had together over the many, many years. It's hard to imagine Dillons beach or camping without you Jason..Thank you for all that you were and will forever be in our hearts. We will miss you always..

My young and special friend..Jason, you were and always were "Pickee" to me. One of our other kids but you also are my HERO! My heart aches because my friend and HERO with all of his vivaciousness isn't calling out "Hey Sirsi" and after all, Heros are supposed to live forever..you will be never leave my memories or my heart. I miss your voice, the essence of you, the man you were and your example of what courage, strength and love really is. I speak for Bonnie and I when I say "you are truly missed". We Love you ! You were and will be apart of our lives and in our hearts forever.

I didn't know Jason as an adult...he was a part of my childhood growing up in Orangevale. Through modern technology, I was able to locate him a couple of months ago to find he was fighting for his life. I followed his uphill battle as I rooted for him and prayed for him. A part of my childhood is gone, but I have very fond memories and a few pictures to remember him by. You will be missed my friend. All my love to you and your family. Your childhood friend, Kelli (Marsh) Navarro

Jason, I will miss your laugh and your positive attitude. I will always remember the nickname you gave me "Mo-Esha" because your the only one that ever called me that. You will be missed by all of the people that have ever met you and I hope its one big party in Heaven!

"When your heart is empty, filling it with happy memories can help you find your smile"...Jason you made lots of people smile. You are the only person I know that could unite so many people for a single cause. Your legacy and the mission to find a cure for lung cancer will live on in the lives of the people you have touched.

It takes my breath away and makes my tears flow to be reading an obituary for my closest friend. He was so dynamic and so vital even throughout his illness. Life is an amazing journey....but his death has just been painful. I'm so happy I knew you Jason, thank you for the gift of your friendship.
