It is with great sorrow that we announce the passing of Jason Edward Sellers after a long and
courageous battle with cancer.

Jason was born in 1976 in Savannah, Georgia. While he grew up to be a force of a man,
he never lost his humility. Over his lifetime, he received many awards from dart competitions
but still made time for his other passions; creating laser engraved art for loved ones, fishing, poker,
karaoke, hunting but most of all, his family. He met Natalie many years ago and instantly fell in love. As a
loving and devoted husband, father, grandfather, brother, son, and friend, his greatest joy was
bringing a smile to everyone’s face. Jason was known for going out of his way to help those he
cared for.

Surviving to cherish his memory are his wife Natalie Sellers as well as his children Kaylynn (Caleb)
Madison, Ryder and Alayna; grandson Bentley; siblings Angela Drossopoulos
and Lisa Everett; nieces Cassey Everett and Amanda Benson; nephew Joesph Rewis (Melissa)
and their children Kolter, Titus, Elias, Adalynn, and Aubrey. Numerous Aunts, Uncles, and Cousins.
He was especially close to his cousin John Skarin (Gina). He also will be missed by his many
friends.

A memorial service will be held on Sunday, March 26th 2023 at 1:00 PM
at the Families First Funeral Care (1328 Dean Forest Rd, Garden City, GA
31405.
