Jason was a man of immense wisdom and humor, cherishing every moment spent with his family. He was the most amazing husband, father, son, brother and friend to many. He was very involved in his children's lives, from being their number one fan to coaching them, and teaching them new things to be successful in life. No matter what, he showed his kids how much he loved them and how proud he was of them. Jason was an amazing, relaxing, and calming person to be around, and was so uplifting for others who needed a shoulder to lean on.
