Jason was born in Petaluma, California, and raised in Santa Rosa with his three brothers by his parents, Ed and Shari Powell. Jason grew up playing baseball his entire life, and was an exceptional baseball player. After college, Jason pursued a career in Construction. Jason met his first wife, Tracie, and they have two daughters together, Jamie and Jaylin. They moved their family to Reno, and Jason began working as Project Manager in Commercial Construction.
After years in Commercial Construction, Jason opened his own construction company, where he focused on high-end residential builds in Lake Tahoe. Over the course of 20 years, Jason learned the field side of construction and the management side, which made him very successful.
In 2015, Jason met Melissa and they married in 2017. Together, they welcomed their son Shae Powell in 2019, completing their blended family.
Jason loved the simple life, he was a husband and family man, he loved being around his kids, watching Dodger baseball, the Raiders on Sunday, and taking the dogs out in nature. Being a “Dad” was his favorite job, and the one he will be most missed as. Jamie was Jason’s best friend, Jaylin was his little girl, and Shae is Jason’s twin.
Known for his kindness, humor, and loyalty, Jason was loved by everyone who knew him. His family, Melissa, and his children Jamie, Jaylin, and Shae, meant everything to him. Jason will be deeply missed by all who had the privilege of knowing him.
Jason was laid to rest at Genoa Cemetery in Genoa, Nevada.
