Jason Mark Sims

Jason Sims went out with a bang on July 4, 2020, at age 46. Ultimately, he died from sheer and utter stubbornness. Anyone else with multiple organ failures would have gone quietly into the night, but not Jason, for that was not his style. Jason was creative, generous, and funny, and he loved to make everyone around him laugh, even until the very end. As the nurses asked him periodically throughout the day, "Where are you?" instead of saying "Methodist," for the hundredth time, he finally replied, "in Hell." The nurse laughed and said, "You've still got jokes!" Jason enjoyed skateboarding, biking, fishing, cooking, playing guitar, and hanging out with friends & family. He was proud to be a Journeyman Plumber but above all, he cherished the time he had with his daughter, Skylar. He also leaves behind parents, Mark and Mary; two sisters, Melissa and Marey; nieces and nephews, Robert, Jason, TrennahDee and Deshaun, and many loving aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends. A Celebration of Life will be held Friday, July 10, 2020, at 7:30 pm, at Mountain Creek Lake Park. His gravesite is located across the street at Mountain Creek Cemetery. We invite those who knew and loved Jason to a very casual, socially distanced memorial. We will gather at Mountain Creek Lake Park at 7:30 pm. We would love to encourage those who are willing to speak to share memories of Jason and/or to bring a written memory, which will be collected to make keepsakes for the family. If you're not able to attend, please feel free to share a memory on the tribute page.
