Tom,
I was heart broken to hear about your son. It just made me think about how my parents would feel if I passed away since I am around your son's age. I really pray that God blesses you and your family during this period and take consolation that he is in a better place and really has not left you but remains in your hearts and soul.
Tommy, We are all praying that time and faith will lighten your burden of grief quickly.
I remember Jason to be sweet, funny, and cute as a button! The CHS class of '97 would not have been as great without him! RIL Jason. Prayers to his family and close friends!

I am overcome with sadness to learn of Jason's passing. He had a smile that would light up a room and was always such a joy to be around. I'm grateful for having known him. My heart is with you all during this time.
We're very sorry for your loss. Though we only met Jason a few times, we know the impact he had on all of you. We know he will be greatly missed at home and on the boat.
Absolutely tragic. Tom, you were ALWAYS there for Jason with whatever he needed, and you know in your heart that he was appreciative of that. A special bond has been evident between the two of you throughout the years, and your memories of that relationship will make you miss him so, but will also be what sustains you and eventually make you smile at the thought of him. You will be in my thought and prayers, not just now, but in the future, as you and your family endure the hardships of his absense. All my love to you and your extended family. Janice Casey
