Dear Georgine, Annie and family,
I was at Avon East this afternoon and while there heard this devastating news. I am so very sorry for all of you. Words are inadequate at this time, but we firmly believe God only takes the very best at such a young age. We hope you find comfort in that thought.
Our prayers will be with all of you. If we can do anything at all to support you please call.
With love and affection.

a fallen hero
an angel in blue
strong and brave
his heart ever true

He vowed to protect
no matter the pain
men women and children
in sunshine and rain

His badge was more
than a shining pin
it was honesty, sacrifice
glowing from within

Rest in Peace, Jason.

Our prayers are with your family, friends, and all those who protect and serve us.

Pipe Me Down, Lads!

Pipe me down,Lads When the final day comes.

Lay me down smartly With your pipes and with your drums.

Wear your dress blues,lads When I finally fall.

I`ve earned the great gift Of eternal life.

So pipe me down lads,And dont cry for me.I`m finally where

The Lord promised me. With mom and with dad

And with all the rest , Who went before me To their final rest.

I`ve done my best,My life is done.

I won`t need my badge. I won`t need my gun.

If there be a God,and I am sure that there is,

Then He`s got my hand,And I`m holding His.

So pipe me down,Lads And play the best you can.

I`m listening to you From the Promised Land!

What Happened? That can't be true. In high school, we all thought we were invincible. Nothing bad could happen to one of us. I don't want to attend a funeral. Isn't time for Coach Eaton's English class or Coach Lindway's shop class? After class, we better hurry to football practice-its the Clearview game this week. I heard there's a bonfire at Joe's this weekend. I will see you there. There were some many good memories of high school and you were part of them.

I haven't seen you in years and hearing your fate has brought me to tears. I find some comfort and even laugh when I think of memories I shared with you. May your family and friends do the same.

You were such a good person, you truly will be missed!
