I was active-duty in the US Army for four years and inactive for two years. My basic training was at Fort Knox, Kentucky. My primary job was as a scout in the 1st Cavalry at Fort Hood and 8th Infantry in Germany. I came out as an E5 Staff Sergeant.
When I returned home, I worked at Roses Warehouse for several years. I did carpentry and electrical work until my health would no longer allow me to continue.
My wife and I have been married for forty-seven years. We have one daughter, two sons, six grandchildren, and two great grands. They all are a lot of help to me and keep me very entertained. We are continuing to multiply as another great grand is on the way. My family is my greatest joy.
I have been on dialysis since October of 2022. I was diagnosed with kidney disease and struggled with it for several years before we got to that point. It has limited my livelihood tremendously and has been a big change in lifestyle.
I love the mountains and very much miss our weekend trips. My energy levels do not allow me to do this anymore. I love Nascar Racing and share this with my Grandsons. I also miss hunting and fishing with my sons.
For medically cleared donors, giving the gift of life through living kidney donation has been proven to be very safe.

A healthy person can live a normal life with one kidney and save Jason‘s life with the other!
