Four Years

Jason Specht ♥ 8/3/74 - 11/25/07

Although we seem so far apart,
You're always here within my heart.
You filled my life with joy and pleasure,
The memories I will forever treasure.
A little while shall pass and then,
We'll see each other once again.
Loved, remembered and held so dear,
Wishing every day, that you were still here.

Miss and love you so much little brother! GO BLUE!!

These billboards will appear in Mifflin and Huntingdon County during the month leading up to the four year anniversary. I still can't believe it has been nearly four years since this tragedy. Love and miss you little bro!!

Three years, nine months

I know I can't bring you back, but I can certainly pull out all the great memories we had and reminisce. As I sat and watched the football game on Saturday, I recalled all the great times we had watching the games and how Jason would always come down to the house for the game. I miss those days and will cherish them forever. Love and miss you little brother. Go Blue!

Happy 37th Birthday Jason!

Time is said to heal grief, but it only sets it aside until days like these - when memory fills every corner of my mind and heart. Today would have been Jason's 37th birthday, his light shines down on us from above. Love and miss you bro! GO BLUE!!

Three Years, Eight Months

Wish you were here to see your little nephew, Cason. You know he is going to be a die hard Wolverine fan (Corey already has him on that path). Not a day goes by where I still don't think of you and wish I could call you up. Love and miss you bro. GO BLUE!

Three Years, Seven Months

When I begin to reminisce about the times we had with Jason, I often wish life had a reset button. Not so I could do things differently, but rather so I could relive these moments one more time. Miss you more than ever bro! GO BLUE!!

Three Years, Six Months!!

I can't believe it has been three and a half years. It seems just like yesterday and in my mind I still feel like I'm going to turn the corner and Jason will be there. He has never left and will always be with us. I talk to him often and know that he listens and watches over us. I would give anything to hear one more of his funny one-liners or get an email with one of his jokes. Miss and love you more than ever little bro! GO BLUE!!
