Jason Scott Letourneau

Jason was born with a major heart defect and through the generous donation of an anonymous family, Jason received the priceless gift of a new heart 18 years ago. Although 40 years of age, Jason thought of himself as just turning “18” – old enough to vote. Jason worked hard to support those going through any type of hardship. He had been a spokesperson for the Organ Donation and Transplant Association of Canada and helped others whenever possible. He worked for various charitable institutions and had a passion for fund raising. Jason really believed you can make a difference and recently discovered a new passion working at Calgary City Hall which fed his love for communication and public relations. He was overjoyed when the song he wrote for Kim for their wedding day was professionally recorded.

Jason will be lovingly remembered by his wife Kimberly who shares his passion for life and music; his parents, Dave and Iris Letourneau; his sister and brother-in-law, Shelley Letourneau and Matt Aird; Baba, Anne Kitchen; in-laws Ron and Pin Baker, Wendy and Andrew Smith and favourite nephew Desmond; numerous aunts and uncles, many friends and coworkers and his always faithful dog Britany.

At Jason’s request there will be no services held. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made directly to the Foothills Hospital, 1403 – 29 St NW, Calgary, AB T2N 2T9 or to Ronald McDonald House, 111 West Campus Place NW, Calgary, AB T3B 2R6.
