Jason

We went to our dear friends funeral. It was a beautiful service. Jeff gave the opening prayer and it was possibly the most beautiful prayer I've ever heard. Jason's brother in law spoke, his sister in law, his brother Brad, his friend/coworker and his sweet wife.
It was a beautiful service, an amazing tribute.
It was wonderful and awful all at the same time.


Thinking about Jason made me think about these pictures from my old blog book.

No Words

I cannot even believe what I'm about to write.
Sydney and I were getting ready for school... just normal day when I got a text from my mom in law saying Jason Crompton fell in a ditch and was buried.
I didn't understand.
Jason couldn't be gone.
He couldn't be.
He was too young and a daddy and--he couldn't be.
So I wrote her back and she confirmed, he was gone. He had passed.
I was attempting to be strong for Sydney, since our day 1 of school wasn't the greatest, but I couldn't keep myself together. I sent her on the bus with myself in tears.
Life is crazy and scary and totally unreal and I don't know if this news will ever feel real.
My heart is broken for my friend Jan, for their beautiful sons who Jason loved so fiercely, for his mom and dad and brothers.
