In Mason spare time loved to play basketball and play video games. Mason loved to be around family and friends. Mason was always smiling and laughing. He had a smile that would brighten up the room He attend a bible study youth ministry. He helps change people’s lives. One of his friends sent me a text that he would like for me to share that says:

“Hello, my name is Denzel, I am one of the boys who came with Taj yesterday. I’m sorry for your loss. Mason was my brother from another. First friend I made at Walnut Ridge when I transferred and moved to Berwick. Our friendship grew into a brotherhood. He bought me closer to God. If it weren’t for him, I would have never found my 2nd family and got involved with the bible study group.”
