My beautiful son had the most amazing heart, and loved liked no other. He was a passionate soul loving the world in his own unique way. I miss him terribly, and appreciate all his passion, silliness, and playfulness which added specialness to mine. I still see him in my experiences and feel his warmth as I traverse the world - I know he is watching over Abrielle, Tori ,

Jason... I know you'll never see this, but you came to me in a dream. I then started frantically searching for you on Facebook, and came across this. My heart is so sad. You were such an amazing friend that came to me with open arms. We had such great times in the short time I got with you. I am so sad. I miss you. Always will have a place in my heart. I'm so sorry I wasn't there. Xoxo.

Today would be your 32nd birthday bro. You were the first thought in my head when I woke up. I miss you so much. I'll be throwing back a couple pinstripes for you and will jam your music all day.

Our sweet girl on her 7th Birthday!

Jason,
My dear friend. I still find myself wanting to pick up the phone and have Abrielle call you and tell you goodnight. That part sucks! She misses you, but the good Lord has graced her with a strong soul. She's doing amazing! She has her tough days, and then her days of humble smiles when she's playing in the front yard with her sister's, and stops to look up at the sky and says, hey guys look up above those clouds, that's where my dad is! She's a beautiful blessing and I can't thank you enough for being in her life. We celebrated her 7th Birthday yesterday. She seemed to have fun. I had to fight back the tears for her behalf, I was crying and screaming inside that you weren't a part of her earthly party, but I know that the heavens were celebrating for her! I'm thankful that you had an amazing party for her last year with a bouncy slide, family and friends. Your missed beyond words. I know you are watching over her every day and night. I miss you friend, I miss your straight to the point advice, I miss your stinging honesty, and yet your tender words that made no matter what life threw as us ok. I see so much of you in her, that at times I feel like your smile resonates through her. I know it does. Jason, I hope and pray that I can be half the parent to our sweet daughter Abrielle that you are. I pray to be as fun loving as you, and as patient, and kind as you. I strive to be the kind of parent you were to her. I'm sorry you can't be here to hug her, and say sweet prayers with her at night. My heart aches for her and that you aren't here. AHHHHHHHHH!!!! I just need to scream sometimes! I'm sorry Jason. We miss you.
Love, Steph

Jason my beautiful beloved son- I miss you terribly beyond belief. I am so sad that you did not finish realizing your dreams. My heart breaks every day knowing that you will not be here to laugh and share life with me, Tori, or Abrielle. You were an amazing son and took very good care of me Jason. Thank you for being such a loving, kind, funny, gracious soul full of honesty and integrity. You will live in my heart forever.

I am SO grateful that Jason's path crossed with mine in our lifetime.Kindly, Mary Allison (Swain)

They say the good die young this is something that I now know. In my heart and in my soul I will never let you go. Though you're gone you'll still live on thru memories that we shared. Why was your life the life that the good Lord could not spare.

Denise, Tori, Baca and Gallegos, I am very sorry to hear of the untimely passing of Jason. I am praying for all of you as we knew this pain before, when Sambo left us. Many of us have not forgotten our friend and classmate Sammy Baca, nor you Denise. Peace to all of you.

Often I wonder where exactly we all fit in this grand universe. Seemingly, we are no more than specks of dust or, at best, dander falling from Orion's hunting dogs in the night sky. But we do matterwe matter to each other, just like Jason mattered to his family and friends...even those he just met such as myself. I will miss your kind soul...

Dearest Jason,
I'm still having a hard time wrapping my mind around the fact that your no longer with us. You are truly in a much better place. Your life on this earth was truly not long enough, but decisions like that are not left up to us. I pray every day that you are at peace. You have a lot of people that love you, that miss you, and pray that you are enjoying your flight lessons with the angels :) I feel greatful that you and I were friends, and that we shared a truly dear friendship. I will promise to love, cherish, hug, kiss, and shower our daughter with all the love in the world! I promise you that! We miss you Jason! You were an amazing father! Your eyes and her's would light up with a love for eachother that I can never forget! She loves you, and I know you lived with a love for her that was so deep and pure that she will hold onto forever! I can't say enough! It really really sucks that your gone!!! But know that you will never ever ever be forgotten! Abrielle and I love you! Say hi to grandpa dean for Abrielle and I, and give your dad lots of hugs from us too! Your home now J. Be at peace, may your soul be at rest. We don't want to say goodbye, so it will be, we will see you later! Oh, and p.s. Abrielle loves that she can look up to the heavens now and talk to daddy anytime she wants, so I hope your listening, which I know you are!! And she also loves that she knows you can watch over her all the time now, and no matter what she is doing you can see her! I know your her guardian angel and you will watch over her! Be still Jason, rest in peace. I'm so sorry you had to leave us. Please know you are loved. We miss you!!!!!!!!!!!!!
