I very much appreciate and enjoyed the year that I worked side by side with Mason at Home Depot. He was always very responsible and conscientious in his work, and was very personable in his dealings with customers. They also appreciated and enjoyed their interactions with him. We talked alot about hiking and camping and shared a deep affection for the outdoors. He was a great listener and a quick learner. I really believe he enjoyed and appreciated working together with all of the Home Depot associates. He is deeply missed! 
Peace and blessings to all family and friends,

I am sorry for your loss. Mason was a gentle, good-hearted soul, and I remember how intelligent and kind he was during our time at the UTK Ag Campus. He often helped me and our peers with lab assignments and his bright spirit left a lasting impression on us.

Mason was such a sweet, smart, and funny kid. Stain Drain was legendary at our house. He was the Radio Man during neighborhood games. He also came up with original songs like the girl who eats through her arm. 
Our kids have so many childhood memories with Mason and Wade. 
Our most sincere condolences to Tim, Debbie, Wade, Katy and the extended family.

Tim, Debbie, Wade, 

I'm so sorry. 

Time moves so much slower as a kid. It was a blink of an eye when we lived in the neighborhood, but that period feels like half my life sometimes. Our friendship with Mason and Wade during the Mt. Olive days will always be some of the best memories of Alex's and my life. I'm so grateful we had that time together. Our family cherishes and will always cherish our memories of Mason.

Tim and Deb,
Your loss is immeasurable,
but so is the love left behind.    
 
We are thinking of you.

  You were so blessed to have Mason as long as you did.
It's hard to think of blessings now, 
but it is a blessing that he isn't in pain anymore.
 Below is a comforting poem.
Sending love and sympathy.

Warmly, Diane and Sam Glasgow 

            The Ship
I am standing upon the seashore.
A ship at my side spreads her white sails to the morning breeze
and starts for the blue ocean.
She is an object of beauty and strength.
I stand and watch her until at length she hangs 
like a speck of white cloud
just where the sea and sky
come to mingle with each other.

Then someone at my side says: "There, she is gone!"

"'Gone where?"

Gone from my sight. That is all.
She is just as large in mast and hull and spar
as she was when she left my side
and she is just as able to bear her load 
of living freight to her destined port.
Her diminished size is in me, not in her.
And just at the moment when someone at my side says
"There, she is gone!"
there are other eyes watching her coming,
and other voices ready to take up the glad shout,
"Here she comes!"

And that is dying.
   
By Henry Scott Holland [1847 - 1918]    He was an English clergyman and Professor of Divinity at the University of Oxford. His most famous piece is "Death Is Nothing At All," based on his sermon following the death of a king.

I am so sorry for your loss.  Mason was a wonderful person inside and out. Thinking about you all dearly.
Love,
Fahemah

Tim and Debbie, Wade and Katy, and family, 

I send my heartfelt condolences on the loss of your beloved son and brother. I met Wade and Mason  when they were young boys. They were both delightful, charming,  bright kids, conversational and polite.  And darling. You could feel the love and pride emanating from you both, Tim and Debbie. Many years later I had the privilege of attending Wade and Katy's wedding reception in Healdsburg, CA and had an opportunity to meet the wonderful men the boys had become. It breaks my heart to learn of Mason's passing. You are in my thoughts.

Debbie & Tim, I am so sorry to hear of Mason’s passing. He was such a kind and thoughtful young man. You should be so proud to have raised such a fine human being. 

My thoughts are with you and your family.

To know Mason was to love him. Ridiculously smart, talented at pretty much everything and stupidly quick witted. Making Mason laugh was always my favorite because he only laughed when he truly thought something was funny. Very authentically himself always. 

Thankful for my past memories with him and him being my first roomie out of high school. From Mt. Olive to adulthood. Will forever be in my heart and sending so much love to Debbie, Tim and Wade. ♥️

Tim, Debbie, and all the family, 

You have my deepest condolences for your loss. Mason was a wonderful man, and he will be missed.
