Jason Edenfield, 41

Our hearts are heavy as we commemorate the life of our beloved baby brother, Jason Edenfield, who unexpectedly passed away on Monday, July 29, 2024, at the age of 41. In celebration of his life, family and friends were invited to join in honoring Jason’s memory on Saturday, August 3, at 3 p.m. at Wood Funeral Home in Metter. The remembrance offered an opportunity to share cherished memories and find solace in each other’s company as respects were paid to a man whose impact on lives will endure for a lifetime. Jason was cherished by all who knew him, and his endearing nickname “baby bubba” reflects the deeply treasured place he held within his siblings’ hearts.

Born June 19, 1983, to the late Jimmy Otis Edenfield, Sr. and Sylvia Peebles Edenfield, Jason brought immeasurable joy to his siblings: Jimmy O. Edenfield, Jr. “Bo” of Aline, Brenda Edenfield-Bell (Michael) of Vidalia, Linda G. Coleman (Kenny) of Aline, and Susan M. Edenfield (Michael Nease) of Vidalia. He will forever be fondly remembered by numerous nieces and nephews who were privileged to experience the warmth and laughter he so freely shared.

Jason was a man of subtle humor, always finding a way to bring a smile to the faces of those around him with his dry wit and playful banter. However, his most enduring legacy will be the simple, heartfelt phrase “I loves you” that he so genuinely expressed and that continues to echo in the hearts of all who were fortunate enough to receive it from him. Though Jason did not have his own children, his love enriched the lives of his many nieces and nephews, leaving an indelible legacy of love, laughter, and kindness.

We will forever hold dear the memories of our baby bubba, whose presence graced our lives with love, laughter, and enduring affection.

Wood Funeral Home of Metter was in charge of arrangements.
