Funeral Arrangements for Tool are tentative. There is a memorial service Sunday night at 8PM (don’t quote me on the time, I’ll edit the post if I find out it’s incorrect, but as of yesterday evening 6/26 this was correct) at Bock Funeral Home on Mt. Royal Blvd in Shaler. There is no viewing. If I find out more about funeral arrangements I’ll post.

One of the managers at monroeville spoke with Jasons father today, and he was told that it would be at Bock, from 3pm-7pm on Sunday, It was also posted to all CCity stores city wide via Gmail.

And funeral services are Tuesday @ 5:30pm, Church is in wexford, didnt catch the name, will get it later.

So I think those are the finalized details.

I will be at both.

Thanks for clearing up. We had spoken to him yesterday, but it was tentative then, and he said he wanted it to be in the evening on Sunday so that people who had to work could attend. I’m glad someone finally found out when the funeral services are. I will also be at both. Thanks again.

The guys at the flashlight drags were awesome enough to contact the photographers, and they responded almost INSTANTLY with the requested photo, plus 2 more that I did not see on the website. And I am even in one of them.

Those are resized through photobucket, but I have the full resolution 3MB images as well…

I had 8x10’s printed and will provide them and the digital copies to Craig and Sheri tomorrow.

R.I.P. Tool… I met him thru Spektator, she introduced him to my truck club, where he activly became a big part of our family. He was a stand up guy that made everyone he was arround smile… I will miss him greatly

I will have stickers made shortly for anyone that will want one, pm me they will be 7 bucks… id love to do them all for free, but cannot afford to do so.

also… a friend of mine made a few things for him in his memory…

Great memorial service tonight, very emotionally draining, good to see you Cheeks.

Got a chance to give the photos to Craig (Jason’s Father) and he loved them, saying he did not have anything to frame of Jason and his truck, and these were perfect, so that’s awesome.
