We kept in touch over the years and I was so happy when he told me he was going to be a dad! He loved all if his children so much. What a beautiful way to carry on his legacy.
May God continue to hold our hands as we walk this new journey in life without Jason. He will always be smiling down at usâ¤ï¸
I send you my deepest sympathy. I hope it helps to hear God has Jason safely wrapped up in His arms. He and the Lord love you. They wait for you in Heaven until your time.
