      Jason
      You were and still are a very special member of our family. Stephanie Fulford loved you with all her heart. We went on vacation one year and all she kept thinking about was not being with you. Well, you two are finally together for Eternity in the most gracious kingdom of all, “Heaven.” Please hold tight to each other and whisper sweet messages to your kids and to your mothers, whose hearts have been broken.. knowing that you are finally together forever gives us momma’s a little bit of peace. RIP Son!!!

      I was always closest to your brother Todd, but we always looked up to you and I always thought you were so cool. You always had an infectious smile on your face, so one could t help but smile back and be happy to see you. I look back at the time that’s passed by and I only wish we could have been closer. This is a hard loss and I’ll see you at the gates smiling when it’s my turn. Till then I’ll be here watching over the family. Love you Jason.
