Our Little Mason














Mason completely loved life and enjoyed every moment to it's fullest. Mason was a special spirit and a delight to be with and watch. He was constantly curious and loved everyone and anything he could come in contact with. His vibrant personality shined through his adorable dimpled cheeks and his boasts of laughter. He was always happy and pleasant to be around. He loves his buddy Link; these two little boys have always looked out for each other and have had a very special bond. Mason's big blue eyes would light up every time he heard his Mommy's voice and his Daddy's Laugh. He adored his sweet loving mother and looked up to his Dad (literally). He has stolen the hearts of family and friends. On Tuesday, July 8th, Mason was driving with his mom and his brother when he choked on a pretzel. The problem was immediately noticed. The Heimlich was administered, the best resuscitative efforts were made and emergency vehicles arrived promptly. Medical personnel did everything that they could do to open his airway. He was life flighted to Primary Children's Medical Center where he was put on life support. After extensive neurological testing, it was determined that Mason was clinically dead. Mason's parents were able to spend his last hours with him holding and loving him. In Mason's true giving nature, he donated his organs. His healthy body was able to give his beautiful loving heart, his liver and his kidneys. Dave and Char watched as these important vital organs were taxied to the airport to give others another chance at life here on earth. This has been a source of comfort to his Mason's parents that his life had a stronger purpose, because of his love to share with everyone. They rejoice in the lives that Mason helped save but miss Mason desperately.
