I was never formally introduced to Jason Ray. But I met him several times. I have even probably taken pictures with him, slapped his hand and patted him on the back. In a world in which we put so much stock into which way a ball bounces, his accident and situation bring us all back down to Earth, and help us understand what's truly important in life.

Jason didn't have his last name on the back of his jersey. He entertained us all without ever showing us his face. But he was an integral part of the game day experience, and he will be missed.

I'm sorry I'm not more eloquent.
