May 1, 1981 - April 30, 2024
The family announces with deep sorrow the sudden death of Jason Harvey in Chilliwack, B.C. on April 30, 2024.
Jason was born on May 1, 1981, in Timmins, Ontario. He was the elder child of Gabriel Harvey and the late Marianne (Belair) Harvey.
Jason is survived by his father Gabriel, his son Jonathan, his son's mother Angela, all of Chilliwack, and his sister Natalie and her husband Jeff Saamanen of Panama. He is also survived by his aunt Yvonne (Michael) Demoskoff, his cousin Nicholas Demoskoff, all of Hope, his uncle Raymond (Nenita) Belair of Langley, and aunts, uncles, and cousins in Quebec.
Jason was predeceased by his mother Marianne (2019), his grandmother Jacqueline (Desgroseilliers) Belair (2019), his grandfather Maurice Belair (1996), his grandfather Azarias Harvey (2003), and most recently his grandmother Judith (Tremblay) Harvey in March 2024.
Jason grew up in Timmins, Ottawa, Nova Scotia, and Hope, where he did some of his high schooling before his family moved to Chilliwack. As a young child, Jason enjoyed tinkering with and repairing electronics and small household appliances. He had a lot of fun learning how things worked and it gave him a real sense of achievement to fix a broken item.
Jason smiled easily, enjoyed being outdoors, and more than anything else, loved his son, Jonathan.
A funeral mass took place on May 29, 2024, at Our Lady of Good Hope Church in Hope. Father Dennis O. Flores, celebrant.
Rest in peace, dearest Jason.
