One of the best people that I have ever known, ever. The most loyal friend one could ever ask for. Jason had a heart of gold. I am very sorry that I will not be able to attend the service, but I have the sweetest memories from our teenage years and beyond to hold on to...to many to ever forget. Thank you for all of the fun you, me, Khary, Kelsey, LaKeisha, LaShonda, David, Tommy, the list goes on (the Little Rock Crew) had in DC (especially the Summer of 2005 - cookouts were the best!). I was exposed to lots of creative arts, foods, and unique thoughts and perspectives, movies, and more, thanks to you. We loved you unconditionally, and will continue to do so in Spirit. "A brother from another mother," we would say. You were so cool and genuine.
Your friendship was invaluable. There is so much more to say, as you were an awesome person - a solid individual. You are now at peace, no more pain or suffering, resting safely in the arms of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. I love you Jason. Rest peacefully.
