Saddened to read about Jason’s passing. I hope you can find comfort knowing he will be with your mom and dad now. My husband Tony passed on April 14 so who knows how much ruckus they are all causing on the other side.

Cindy and Kathleen;
Please accept our deepest sympathy at your loss. We did not know your brother, but we knew your mom and dad and how they cared about Jason. We also knew that he was in a good home and received the care he needed. Your family has been hit with many sudden changes in the past 12 years. That has not been easy on you two girls. Our sympathy, prayers and good wishes go out to each of you. At times like this our faith, our family and our friends are what helps us get through. Know that our thoughts are with you. God bless.

I had the pleasure of knowing Jay because my husband supported him with caring respect. Knowing that Jay had wonderful people assisting him in his life and seeing his smirks would always brighten my mood. It is saddening to know that we will not see Jays big, caring eyes or his stubborn attitude when he wanted to be left alone. Travis and I will greatly miss him and Jay will always have a special place in our hearts. We are deeply sorry for the family’s loss.

I used to spend time with Jason for piano lessons on his piano at home. He had a very gentle touch on the piano, and I always enjoyed our time together making music. His compositions were a little more “avant garde”, while I just played the old standbys! He will be missed.

I am so sorry for your loss. Jason will always have a piece of my heart . . . he was an adorable 7 or 8 year old when I started working at his (then) home on Kathryn Drive, and he grew up to be such a handsome man, inside and out, with a loving and sweet nature. His love for his family was always evident, and you were all such a great support for him. Sending prayers of comfort for you all. He will be greatly missed.
