To help the Baldwin family with their sudden loss

It is with immense sadness and disbelief that I am sharing the unexpected and sudden passing of my true friend and brother, Jason Baldwin, or ‘Jay’ as he was known to most who knew and loved him.

A son, brother, friend to many and proud father of five beautiful children, Jay was known for his giant heart and a smile that could light up an entire room. His love of animals was second to none, and the passion he had for his pups, and the joy it brought him was immeasurable. A gentle soul, he was always quick with a positive or comforting word, despite his own struggles. For many years he suffered with immense physical pain, and the depression that comes along with it. Bravely, he fought a tough battle dealing with all of the complications associated with multiple accidents over the years, spending months at a time in a hospital bed, away from family and friends. Over the years, and despite this, he touched so many lives in countless ways.

Jason is survived by his mother, Jackie, his brother, Paul, his children, Jay, Jaden, Jacob, Jayce and Jade, his nephews, Will and Braden, and his sister-in-laws, Jen and Bernadette.

I’ve set up this GoFundMe to assist the Baldwin family with the funeral costs; many of you know they already lost his older brother Danny just over a year ago, and are now faced with another tragedy. Let’s help remember Jay as the kind, loving person he was by helping his grieving family during this time. I’m imploring you to dig deep to try and help the family with the pending costs and to help leave something for his children and their future. A loss like this is always tragic, but around the holidays it cuts extra deep. Thank you so much for your time, as Jay would say, love and respect.
