Jason Edwin Much

Commander Jason Edwin Much, age 44, a husband, father, and an active duty Commander in the US Navy died peacefully at home July 18, 2016 surrounded by family. Jason fought a courageous battle against Glioblastoma Multiforme.

Jason was born Oct. 20, 1971 in Seattle, Wa. He is survived by his wife Jenny, children; Tyler, Michael, and Alyssa, mother Deborah Much, father Edwin Much and siblings Cory and Angie.

Jason was a graduate of Snohomish High School in 1990. He enlisted in the U.S. Navy where he proudly served for 25 years as an enlisted FT Submariner (10 years) and as a Surface Warfare Officer (15 years). Jason earned his Masters Degree in Strategic Warfare at the Naval War College.

Jason epitomized the definition of Honor, Courage and Commitment in both his personal and professional lives. Jason was dedicated to protecting and providing for his children & wife and was always striving to help them reach their goals and desires. In the Navy, Jason’s leadership impacted hundreds of sailors careers and personal lives. Jason never let others fail and always had their back. He expected the highest possible standard in himself and others; and it shows in those who had the honor to be a part of his life.

Jason loved the Seahawks, playing golf and basketball, weightlifting and running, restoring old cars, and most importantly spending time with family…..all with a beer in his hand. Jason had a kind heart and a great sense of humor. We will miss him more than words can say.

In lieu of flowers please honor Jason by donating in his name to Fairways For Warriors. Jason would be so honored to know his friends and family helped save the lives of other veterans through the game of golf and the brotherhood of this organization.
