My heart goes out to you. Jason contributed so much in his short life, and touched a lot of other lives. We are all thankful for him. May you find comfort in knowing he will be greatly missed.

Our sincerest condolences to Jason's family. We had the pleasure of getting to know Jason up at Matt's parents lake house, where he trained their dogs - first Rusty, and then Tegan. He will be dearly missed by our family.

Jason you were only with us a short period of time but accomplished so very much with your hard work and determination. We will all miss your bright smile. May you rest in peace in heaven.

Bev,

I was deeply saddened to hear of Jason's passing. Even after he came into his own as a pro trainer and handler he was as approachable as ever. I will miss his humor, ever present willingness to help out, and light touch with his dogs. You and the rest of Jason's extended family are in my thoughts and heart.

Linda

To Jason's family, I offer you my condolence's on your loss. I knew Jason for four years while at Cheney Tech. We were in Culinary together, and completed our final project together. Jason had so much determination to make that project the best. He was a great person. Again, I am sorry for your loss.

It is hard to believe that we have lost one of the most likeable persons in our sport. Please acceptable Helen and my condolences and prayers. Jason will certainly be missed throughout the springer clan.

Sincerely....Roland Snyder

Jason made his mark on our sport in so many ways, and in such a short time. We enjoyed having Jason come to Ontario to participate, or just to be here for his enjoyment. He will be missed by so many people. Our sincere condolences and deepest sympathy go out to his family. Donations have been made to ESSFTA in Jason's memory.

Thank you for all you have done for our sport.

We were glad to have known such a big hearted person.

Bev,
I've spent many hours on and off the field with Jason, all of which I will treasure forever. He was the "little brother" I never had. I will miss him terribly, as will anyone who ever met him. You should be very proud of raising a son like him. Everyone loved Jason.
Deepest Sympathy,
Bruce

To all of Jason's many friends and extended family - your thoughts and prayers for Jason are heartwarming. I sit here crying over his loss, yet each candle, message and tribute I read brings back warm, fond memories that meant the world to Jason and make me smile. He was not just my son, he was my best friend and I am eternally grateful that he had the opportunity to positively touch so many lives in the same manner that he touched my soul every day of his life.
Please always keep Jason in your memories. I believe he is watching us from above.

Jason you were a great guy. I am glad i had the chance to grow up with you... trial with you... you always raised the bar. I will always remember you. We had some great fun. Your legacy will live in the story you left behind and memories you gave us.

Bev,

Without fail, Jason always made me smile whenever we spoke. A wonderful soul with a heart as large as his frame. His presence will truly be missed. My deepest sympathies, Pete Rainey

We are very sad to learn of the lost of Jasen.

Bev, Jason was a great friend, a kind, thoughtful person, and taught us a lot about spaniels. We will miss him. Andre & Cindy Trudel

Bev, Over the last 15 years, the Scotia & PEI clubs have watched Jason grow in the Spaniel Field. He was a great asset to the sport, and we will all miss him.

Dear Bev:
We remember Jason as a young boy coming to our trials in Nova Scotia with you and Gary. We watched him progress from dog boy, to handler to judge to professional. He performed superbly in all of these roles in Nova Scotia at one time or another. We looked forward to his visits with us. His enthusiasm for the sport and gregarious spirit endeared him to everyone who met him. Our hearts go out to you in this time of sadness. We are thinkng of you and of Jason.

Judy and Bruce Outhouse

Bev
We are sorry to hear of your lost. Jason was a wonderful person to be around. Always happy to see everyone.
Debbie & Emil Salmons

Bev,

Jason's hard work, enthusiasm, fun loving and gentle spirit, and love of the dogs was always a refreshing reminder of how this sport should be and why I got into it. It always made me feel good to be around him. These wonderful traits didn't happen by accident, they are the result of the guidance, love and understanding you gave him. He will be greatly missed. You are in my heart, my thoughts and my prayers.

Kathy Nestor

To describe Jason, many cliche terms come to mind, he was compassionate and passionate about his chosen vocation, a gentle giant, a competitor and yet always a person able to enjoy other competitors accomplishments, I guess the term refers to being a true Gentleman in every aspect. I pray his family and all of his friends will continue to honor his memory and reflect on his life as we move forward in ours.

My deepest sympathies over your loss. Jason will always be remembered by his many friends.

Bev,

My deepest sympathy on your loss. I remember Jason when he was "little" and watched him grow into a fine young man. I will always have fond memories of Jason.

Sharon Deputy

Bev, Our hearts go out to you with our deepest sympathy . We were blessed to have Jason be part of our world. We will always remember his love for our "Kuta" and his wonderful kind training.
Bob & Elsie

You will be missed. May your family and friends be granted peace and understanding.

Our hearts goes out to Bev & Jason's family.
Jason, you awarded me my first win with my cocker.
Your gentle attitude left a lasting impression on me.
I admired your decision to go pro.
You have done things that most men only dream of.
You will always be a part of our sport.
Joe & Cheryl DeMarkis

Bev,Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this time. Linda and I are relatively new to the field trial community we had opportunity to train with Jason and see him at many of the trials he always had a greeting and a smile for us we will dearly miss him.
Jay&Linda Chaplin

Jason,Love you and miss you.
Jay,Linda,Windsor,Cruiser and Blitz

Jason was a great person and a pleasure watching him develop from a young 15 year old boy at the field trials with Mixie to a professional training my dog and many others.

Bev, our thoughts and love to you. You raised a delightful, caring and thoughtful son.

Jason, you touched our hearts and our spirits with your love of our sport. Your enthusiasm and desire was infectious. Your contribution to the sport was enormous. We will miss you greatly!

Bev: We have been thinking of you much of the day since hearing this sad news early this morning.

We met Jason and yourself many years ago when Jason was a young teenager at a Canadian field trial. Bonnie and Jason struck up a conversation about his interest in foreign coins and when we arrived home Bonnie collected many of her foreign coins and mailed them off to Jason for his collection. Jason soon phoned Bonnie to express his thanks and never missed an opportunity to thank us again whenever we met including September 2008 at your home.

Jason was a fine young man, always courteous which has to be attributed to the way he was raised by you. We know that you have many memories to turn to for comfort and friends for support and we hope this will help to ease your sadness at this difficult time.

Fondly,

Frank & Bonnie O'Grady

Beverly,

My deepest condolences to you and your family. I had a great time judging with Jason last fall in New York. That was the only time I got to know him and the experience gives me the fondest memories of him.

With Sympathy,
Donald Maue

Bev, we have crossed paths with you and Jason for fifteen years now and each meeting has been a joyful experience cemented through that "spaniel love" we share. Less than two weeks ago we all had the pleasure of hearing Jason's laughter and being in his presence. Unforgettable.
You and your family have our prayers and love.

Bev,

Elaine and I extend our thoughts and prayers to you at this difficult time. We can only imagine your sorrow.

I first learned of Jason about ten years ago in an article, which I think he wrote, in "Spaniels in the Field." As I read about his accomplishments, I was awed. How could someone so young gain such success in an area where so many struggled? Obviously, he had a gift. I'll always remember him as a gentle giant with a welcoming smile and and a wit to trade verbal barbs with his friends.

He will be missed.

Jerry

Bev I can't tell you how sorry I am for your loss. Jason was a wonderful fun loving young man. I remember him fondly as a youngster at the Parent Club meetings and then later seeing him periodically at Nationals. You and your family are in my thoughts.

Barb

MRS MATTHEWS. WE JUST SPOKE AS WE JUST FOUND OUT ABOUT JASONS PASSING. YOU HAVE OUR SYMPATHY AND OUR PRAYERS AND NEVER FORGET THAT JASON HAS JUST SHED THE SHROUD OF EARTH TO TOUCH THE FACE OF GOD. COLT, OUR SPRINGER SPANIEL, WILL REMIND US EVER OF JASONS KINDNESS AND UNDERSTANDING. HE WAS A FINE YOUNG MAN. COLT IS A GREAT TRIBUTE TO THE WORK HE LOVED. MAY GOD BLESS. SINCERELY, ALAN & LES GRIFFIN.....AND COLT.

I met Jason only once. I ran a dog under him in a trial last spring. He laughed at my numerous attempts to screw up a perfectly good run. He gave the dog the benefit of the doubt. Then we both laughed the entire run. The guns missed 4 birds on that beat. We finally made it to the end of the course and Jason followed the dog as he trailed a runner from a previous plant. I tried to act like I knew what I was doing as I followed Jason off the course. A perfect flush and the gun missed again. We laughed again and Jason said “Don’t worry; we’ll get a retrieve in the next series.” Jason was a wonderful person. We should take a lesson from him and lighten up a little, enjoy the sport, and laugh a lot more.

Bev, my deepest sympathy over the loss of your son. While young in passing Jason lived life to the fullest every day he was here.
I first met Jason when he showed up at the prestigous Parent Club trial with a little white-faced female named Sadie. He handled her to a win with expertise well beyond his years. He went on to notch High Point honors that year, and I believe Sadie appears in the pedigree of many prominient dogs running today.
Over the years Jason continued to impress me and became a friend. He was kind, well natured,and a gentleman. I know he made you very proud. It was good to know him. If I am good, I will see again in heaven!
Be well,
Sincerely
Bill Cosgrove

Bev, our hearts go out to you in this time of sorrow! Jason left his mark in our community and will be remembered.

I can recall bird planting some trials with Jason over the years, and talking and having a good time with each others company, but this one trial sticks out in my mind where Jason and I where at the end of the course waiting for the dogs on the beat to finish so we could get started on the next course. One of us knott heads was sitting on the radio leaving it keyed, and when we looked up at you and you were waving your arms at us to shut us up, and we both said oops!
Thank you for the many memories!
Tim & Billie Edwards
