Jason Lee Wellman

Jason took after his Father & Mothers footsteps and drove truck, and on May 4th while working his way home he passed very unexpectedly. He loved many types of activities like camping, going to the beach, hunting, concerts and more. He was the guy that you call and say “hey, let’s do this”, and you always knew you could count him in. He loved hard and he loved his family & friends. Six years ago he met Noe, the love of his life. They had planned to be married on his birthday, just 14 days from the day he passed. Noe breathed life into Jason, he loved her very much. Jason was preceded in death by his older brother David Wellman.
