Home from Jason's Memorial. You never know what to say when standing among family of someone who has passed. The likeness in his father- his brother- his mother- it is hard to face.
I had hoped he would come home to us. My daughter reminds me instead, he went home.
Jason was a superior male role model in our community. I knew Jason as a soccer coach and a fellow artist. He loved my daughter, and he would light up when speaking about coaching the kids. We didn't win many games, but we had fun - and I am certain we had the best coach out there.
I use to tease Jason about all the soccer Mom's checking him out as he was also a handsome man. He would blush and kick the dirt like you would see in old movies.

Tonight Ms. Dayna of Good News spoke about the foundation that Jason had laid for our children and that we must move forward thus in his honor.
What I learned from Jason is that we all must give to our community in this life (meaning now). We must give until it hurts, and then we must give even more. Jason could barely walk across the soccer field in May- but he still was coaching. We all have something inside of us that may help another, we just need to be willing to give it. Thank you for sharing your love and respect for Jason. And thank you SoWal for this forum.
