“Forever Loved, Never Forgotten”
The Navy Gold Star Program is eternally grateful for the sacrifice of those Service Members who have died in service to our country. To help us to never forget, we have set up this tribute page to honor and remember the memory of those lives. If you would like to honor the memory of your Sailor, Soldier, Marine, Airman or Coast Guardsman through the Navy Gold Star website please submit your thoughts and a photo.
Jason was my best friend. Having grown up in the same small town together, we had the same references and the same sense of humor (many didn't understand it!). Because of this we could keep each other entertained for days....no matter how long the car ride or how long we waited places together, like hospitals when he got sick, we could find things to make each other laugh. There is no comparison! Jason loved our daughter, Soni Elizabeth, so much. When she was tiny, he didn't trust anyone to hold her. I know even now; he is looking down protecting she and Albie. Albie didn't get to know Jason the way Soni did, but I pray her humor, that I know she gets from Jason, rubs off on Albie and the two of them will carry a part of him forever.
