Born and bred on the North Shore (Jason was born to Bessie and Harry Leffler in Lynn, Massachusetts), Jason attended Swampscott High School before earning his bachelor's degree and master's degree from Suffolk University.
After graduating from Suffolk University, Jason joined his family's grocery business, Mal's Supermarket, ultimately becoming Mal's co-owner and operator.
Above all, though, Jason's greatest pride and joy were his two children, Emily and Scott, who he raised with his beloved wife of 50 years, Nancy Leffler.
Jason's kindheartedness, warmth and appreciation of life's simple pleasures (including a great slice of pizza) will be missed by the many whom he touched.
In addition to his wife, Nancy, Jason is survived by his amazing children Emily (Danny Rosenshein) and Scott (Ali Leffler), as well as his two grandchildren, Madeline and Bennett Rosenshein, who he loved and adored.
Funeral services will take place at 10AM on Wednesday, March 12th at Temple Emanu-El in Marblehead, Massachusetts, where Jason previously served on the Board of Trustees. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Frontotemporal Dementia (FTD) Unit at Massachusetts General Hospital in Jason Leffler's memory.
