Jason L. Winters

Mr. Jason L. Winters, age 41, of Holts Summit, Mo., was unexpectedly called home to be with his Lord and Savior Jesus on Wednesday, February 27, 2019. He was born February 19, 1978, in Columbia, Mo., the son of Charles Franklin and Karen Kay (Antweiler) Winters. Jason was married on February 12, 2000, in Holts Summit to Jamesa (Steele) Winters, she survives in the home. A lifelong resident of the central Missouri area, Jason attended Jefferson City High School. Jason had a strong work ethic and always strove to work hard to provide for his family. He recently worked with SAS Inventory that assisted the two Gerbes Superstores in Jefferson City. He was a faithful member of Living Bread Family Church of God in Fulton, Mo. and passionate about sharing his faith with others. Jason loved sharing his faith through music and was blessed to be able to play all string instruments, especially the guitar and piano. Some of his favorite memories were playing gospel music accompanied by his wife and he always had a song in his heart. He found comfort in studying the Bible and going to scripture gave him strength throughout his life. Jason was spontaneous and was always ready to take a spur of the moment trip with his family or friends, especially visits to Branson. Jason had a knack for making people happy; he could always be counted on to lighten a mood or bring a smile to others. Above all, he cherished time with his family and cooking pizzas to share with his children.
