Jason was a graduate of Columbus Marion Franklin High School class of 1994, where he excelled in Basketball.  Playing all four years, he was on the 1992-1993 team they made it to the regional finals. 

An avid Basketball Player, Jason’s style of basketball echoed the style of Michael Jordan, from shot selection, defense, agility and persistence.

Jason’s family would like to thank the staff of The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center and The James Cancer Hospital and Solove Research Institute for their world class care and attention throughout this journey.  Thank you to  Hospice of Central Ohio for providing care and comfort during his final days.

A very special thank you to Kimberly Mullet, and Michelle Dunlap for all their support, and diligence with his final wishes. 

At Jason’s request there will be no formal services.
