JASON McDANIEL Obituary

McDANIEL, JASON CHARLES Jan. 18, 1990 to Oct. 10, 2012 It is with great sorrow to announce the sudden passing of our beloved son Jason Charles McDaniel. Jason was 22 years old and his life was just beginning. He loved life, people, music, creative writing, Red Hot Chili Peppers with Mom, chess with Dad, video games with his brother, adventures with Grandma, sports with Uncle, concerts with his Godmom, sleepovers and long talks with Cousins and Aunts, The San Diego Chargers, the beach, Modest Mouse, John Lennon, big hugs and cheesecake. Most of all Jason loved his family and we loved him unconditionally. This is a devastating loss and he will be greatly missed. Jason is survived by his parents Teresa Lamm and Rick McDaniel, brother Austin Castellanos, grandmother Peggy Shumate, godmother Cathy Savino, uncle Craig Lamm, aunts Elizabeth McDaniel and Lynette Manues, cousins Candice Walsh, Lacey Nieto baby Alanya, Billy Stowers, Mark and Kyle Lamm. A private service was held November 17, 2012 at his childhood church and preschool Kensington Community Church, 4773 Marlborough, San Diego, CA 92116. In attendance were people who loved and cherished him. A special thank you to his true friends who supported his recovery.

Hey my sweetheart, so we´re moving again. This time to a really big house way out in the country. It´s nice but pretty far. This is the 4th time for me since your daddy died. Still think about you and your daddy everyday, and miss you so much. Did you know your little cousin Alayna looks more and more like you everyday, it´s amazing. When I look at her up close it´s like looking at you I love it! She just turned 10. All the kiddo´s are getting so grown up looking. Little Benjamin is turning 5 in about a week. He reminds me so much of Billy when he was little. I wish you and your daddy could be here enjoying these kids cause they would have just loved you both. Their so sweet just like you were when you were their age. Well I´ll write again soon, please give your daddy, grandpa and my little Cysue and big hug and kiss for me. I love you Jason! Love aunt Lizzie!

Oh my sweet sweet little guy, I miss you so much. I´m so sorry it´s been so long since I´ve written. Getting over your daddy´s death has been one of the hardest things I´ve ever had to do. But I did most recently promise your mommy I would start to write again. I know you and your daddy are up there watching over all of us, recently my little cysue came to join you please take care of her? I love you all so much. I´ll write again soon.

A late Valentines day hug and kiss for my special Valentine you, I love and miss you so. Just to let you know your Daddy and I are moving to Bullhead City Az. Your Daddy is doing much better and that makes me do much better you'll be happy to know the change in location is due to his asthma I know how much that always made you worry as I do. I had not been able to write before now as I had computer issues again but I am at Lacey's writing on her's. We all think and talk of you so often and it makes us feel better. As always will you please give Grandpa a hug and kiss for me and tell him how much I love and miss him? The Padres are off at spring training and they might really have a great season they finally spent some money on great players. My sweet and only one Jason I send you all my love I miss you so much, Love Aunt Lizzy

HI sweetheart, I didn't write over Christmas, I just couldn't but you know I think about you every day and talk to you. The holidays were especially quiet. There's always this sadness that you aren't here that looms within me. These new photos are from your friend Amanda. She was kind enough to come over to the house and talk to us. It was so nice to hear someone talk about you. As soon has she handed them to me I felt paralyzed, yet so grateful to see new pictures of you. I have some from Ivanna that I'll be posting next. Your 25th birthday is in 3 days. I love you sweetheart and think about you multiple times a day, in fact I cannot think of a time I'm not thinking of you. I miss you Jas. LOve Mom

Hello friend, you have been in my heart. Thinking of you and missing you a lot.

November 30, 2014

Hello my sweet Jason, well this has been a busy month. Your Daddy has moved to Nashville to stay with Candy. He has been there for about 3 weeks and already wants to get the heck out of there. I guess its just not his cup of tea, although he loves being there with Candy. I went with Lacey and the kids to the Stoffens for Thanksgiving, it was nice Billy came too but was not there for long. I have been just staying at home and texting with your Daddy the past few day's and that has been nice. I am right now texting with him while I write to you. He wants to go to Portland oregon and I think that maybe we all might be going there. It's just so expensive to live here, and we all have pretty much lost our love affair with SanDiego, And now with you gone it is just more reason to leave There is really nothing here for all of us anymore. I hope you know just how much I love and miss you always and please tell Grandpa how much I love and miss him too. I try not to really think about the fact that your not really here with us anymore because it breaks my heart and I still can't really believe it I love you so Jason and I always will. I miss you more and more with each and every day that pass. Until the next time my sweet little guy Love Aunt Lizzy

Just writing to let you know that yesterday we welcomed little Cara Grace into the world, she is so beautiful and sweet and Alayna was so sweet with her when she saw her for the first time. Lacey had a much easier time this time and I am thankful for that. Your Daddy was there and held the baby it brought tears to my eyes. I know we all wished you could have been there as we welcomed another member to our family but I am sure you are looking down at all of us am am proud of the latest member, she is a beauty. Please tell Grandpa he has another great Granddaughter and I love and miss him so much as I do you. Were getting ready to go through another holiday season without you and I wish that it was not the case, Your Chargers lost the last game but I am hoping this next game they play tomorrow night with Denver will be another victory in your honor, I love you Jason and think of you always. Love Aunt Lizzy

October 15, 2014

Well this makes the fifth message I have sent you and still they are not posting it I wonder what could be wrong I am going to try some stuff here and see if I can't get this worked out I love and miss you Jason Aunt Lizzy

October 13, 2014

Hi Honey, I wonder if you know the Chargers are doing well. They even beat the Raiders. I wish I could hear you yelling while watching the games. I'll never forget how much you love football. I love you. Love Mom

I love you Jason, Love forever Mom

October 10, 2014

Two years without you honey. We miss you so much. I spent the day working in your garden right outside your room. I think you would like it. You are in my thoughts every single day. I hope you can hear me. When little things happen around me I always wonder if it's you. I love you sweetheart, I know you know that. Always and forever I love you, Love Mom

October 10, 2014

It looks like your Aunt Lizzie just stopped writing on your legacy page because I have not seen some of the recent messages I had posted? It's true that my computer broke and I had to get a new one but I had wrote since then, anyway nothing I can do about that now, but I am back writing to you. Today marks the 2nd anniversary from when we lost our precious Jason,it is so unfair why did we have to lose you? I know that I told you Lacey is having another girl and she can go into labor at any moment, I have been spending alot of time lately with Alayna, she is the sweetest little thing oh how I wish she could have spent more time with you. I have been going through some things myself, I just got my new teeth it only took me two years there nice though, I also am not living where I was as it was a nightmare and not getting any better, I really hate to bring this next item up but I may be joining you and Grandpa as I discovered a lump on my breast and it has been there for awhile. I don't think I can go through the treatment like Grandpa, and what good did it do anyway? It was a waste of time so I am going to just let it be what it is and not fight it. I will keep you posted. Well my sweet little Jason, Will you please give Grandpa a hug and kiss for me and tell him I love and miss so? Like always my love for you is constant, my broken heart is forever and your memory stays close by my side where it should be always. Love Aunt Lizzy

Vanessa

July 16, 2014

I'll say it's been a long time since I written, It's not that I have not been thinking about you because you know I always am and will, I broke my computer and it was a nightmare to say the least. I bought a new one and so now I back in business. I really have missed writing to you someday's it's the only thing that gets me through the day. I know that your mom went to the Tony G. memorial to represent for you and I thought that was really nice, I just felt so bad when I first heard the shocking news of his death and of course my then thought was of you. I know how much you loved him and what a faithful fan you had always been and I am so sorry Jason, but now he is there with you and that makes it a little easier I guess? Billy went to the memorial too, I watched it on tv. He was just the greatest person and I will miss him. Since then I haven't been keeping up with the Padre's and how there doing. I don't know weather I had mentioned it or not but Lacey is having another girl and I have seen pictures of her and she is going to be a beauty if those pictures are accurate and I think they are, they were with Alayna. I just want you to know that if or even though I haven't written for awhile it would never be because I have forgotten you that will never ever not for a second happen, it's because of some lame reason like my computer broke or stuff like that. I will always be writing you because thanks to your Mother I have a way to still stay close to you and I treasure is so. As always please tell Grandpa how much I love and miss him so so much and well you know. I love you Jason, here is a extra big hug for you and oh how I miss those hugs. Love Aunt Lizzy

That picture of you and your Daddy that your Mother just posted is so sweet, I remember when your Daddy use to be so very careful with you and always making sure that you were comfortable and happy, and I always thought how sweet it was and it really was. I spent the Easter weekend with your Daddy and he was doing ok, I know how very much he misses you we all do. But we again got through another day another Holiday. We tried to get in touch with your Mother on Easter but she was not available, so please let her know that we love her and are always keeping her in our thoughts? Some of the more recent pictures your Mother has posted shows just how very handsome you really were but of course we have always known that. Just to let you know your Padres are doing pretty good this season so far, Billy has high hopes for them I hope he's right? Could you please give Grandpa a great big hug and a kiss for me? I miss him so much and his Birthday is coming up and the only good thing that has come out of this situation is I have you to let him know how much I miss and love him and you are both together. I love you my Jason Aunt Lizzy

Hi baby boy. I haven't put up any new photos lately but I promise I will. Been having a hard time and I'm missing you so much. I still feel speechless. Today I'm thinking about that first time I took you to church on Easter. The same church you went to preschool at , the same church we had your service at. You were so cute in your little tie. I miss you son. The world is not the same without you in it. I have faith that you are ok and I hope you hear me. Little things help me believe you do. I love you Jason. Love always, Mom

April 3, 2014

I am sorry for not writing as I normally do, but there has been alot going on. I saw your Daddy a couple weekends ago he and Billy,Lacey, and the baby were over for the weekend. We had a really nice time, it's the first time we had all been together like that since your Funeral. We played Moon and taught my girlfriend how to play, we seem to keep losing our player's. Lacey seem to be overly tired and we just had the reason why confirmed. Lacey is going to have another baby. She is due this next Oct. sometime. We sure wish that you would be there for this happy occasion, there seems to be so few happy occasions in our family, but as always you will be there in our hearts. We talk about you so often and miss you more and more as time passes on. I am so sad that this is so. Will you please tell Grandpa that Lacey is having another Great Grandchild? I will be seeing your Daddy again soon, one reason is that I have been able to get him his Advair for his Asthma and it is really doing him alot of good. I miss you and love you so much and it seems I can't tell you enough but I do. I hope all is okay with your Mommy we all worry about her and love her, I know you will always look out for her she is hurting so very much too. I love you Jason, Love Aunt Lizzy

Well I see that your Legacy Book has changed a bit? I also saw the pictures of the beautiful balloons that your mom and others released on your Birthday, how nice I feel bad that we didn't do the same. But we are always thinking of you and of course missing you. There is this one picture of you and your Mother when you were I guess about 10 months old in your Legacy Gallery pages, the photo is #63 of 64 photos. Anyway the reason I bring this up is because you look identical to your Grandma Jeannie. I have very few photos of your Grandma Jeannie and one happens to be a photo of when she was 11 months old, she has the same look on her face that you do in the picture with your Mother. I am going to find that photo of my Mother and post it to your Gallery. Your Grandma Jeannie would have just adored you, maybe you two are together now I hope so. Will you please give Grandpa a big hug and kiss for me and tell him how much I love and miss him? Thank You. And you know how much I love and miss you? I am going to go look for that picture. Love you Aunt Lizzy

January 21, 2014

I was reading some of your latest entries and they always seem to bring me back to a happy time, and of course that's because we had you and that's always a good thing. I do remember you and your great love of cheese cake, remember when Grandpa would get all of our Birthday cakes at Smart and Final? it was great for you because they only had the one kind, Cheese Cake. there are so many of your favorite things that truly made you so unique. Gaga Babies, John Lennon, Dotes which i always had a really hard time finding, Pokey Man cards, Pokey place, The Chargers, The Padres, There was no Baseball Player on any league you couldn't give there stats 100% and that's when you were 10years old. You were crazy about animals, you were way beyond a Computer Genius. But most of all Your favorite things in this world was your family. Your Mother and Father especially, you didn't just love them like we all do our Parents, you really liked them and that was special. I will continue to keep close to me my own great memories of you,us,that time,all the great stuff I will never forget it is what keeps me going. I love you our Little Jason. Love Aunt Lizzy

We made it through another Christmas it seems but of course it was not easy, I spoke with your Daddy and he as always was having a very hard time. Were all trying so very hard to find a way to bring a bit of comfort in this horrible loss, but were not getting anywhere. And so it continues just like our deep love for you. That will never change, We all miss you so. Love Aunt Lizzy

Another year away from your loved ones. You know I see you in the Eagle as it soars close to my home. I think of you and Great Gma and my beloved Nick. The messenger to GOD. So I try to remember to tell the eagle I love all my loved ones gone and let them know. This is our Native American way my dear. I know your at peace in Paradise. It saddens me at times that your G-Grandma Lamm never got to meet you and Austin but I know she welcomed you home along with your Grandpa Lamm and Uncle Jeff. I love you . RIP My NEPHEW... Aunt Sandy
