His songs were sung. His writings were read. His pictures were on display. His pastor preached. His brother spoke well. His step-father concluded the service. We all stood and clapped in honor of a life well-lived.
Special moments for me: Talked with Janet, an aid of his for more than a decade, maybe closer to two. Recognized the intimacy in her relationship to him. A connection to his long-term care-takers. Met Kristann, a friend of Jason's from age 12. He walked up to her on crutches when she was new to the neighborhood and introduced himself. A connection to his past. Watched a tear-wrenching slide show. Pictures showed him walking as a child. A connection to his freedom.
