He was born Jason David Stormo on October 28, 1974 at Watertown, SD, the son of Gregg and Sharon (Hagen) Stormo. Jason attended Clark Schools graduating from Clark High School in 1993.  Following school, Jason worked for various businesses including the Watertown Public Opinion, Arby's and was currently employed by Jimmy Johns and The Argus Leader .   He was a avid fan of the WWE Wrestling and even as a junior in high school, a hobby of remembering everyone's license plate in Clark.  Jason loved cars, having several over the years, being very fussy in the way they looked!

On September 24, 2016 he was united in marriage to Lynnette Benson of Watertown at St. Paul Lutheran Church in Clark.  He had met the love of his life in 2010 in Watertown and the two courted until their marriage.  Even though they had no children of their own, Jason took a liking to Lynnette's sister's boy Mason, as his buddy.

In his caring way, Jason had signed a donor card, which upon his death anything that could be used for others to live would be donated. After Jason's brain death on Monday the 22 ^nd , Life Source was contacted and Jason became a donor so others could live.

Preceding him in death were his grandparents and uncle David Hagen.
