Obituary

Jason Jared Stump, 42, passed away Monday, April 24, 2023. He was born on March 12, 1980, in Murray, UT to Gordon and Barbara Stump. He was known by many names: Jason, Jay, Uncle Jay and Stump. He was loved by all his family and friends.

You could catch Jay; bowling on Tuesday nights with his family, going to University of Utah football, Real Salt Lake soccer, and Salt Lake Bees baseball games, making a mess in the kitchen while baking a dessert, playing online games with his nephews; Tyson, Anthony, Keith, Geron and Lonnie, and making sure he made it to his niece’s softball games.

Jay was a man of many traits, but none of which compared to spending time with his family and friends.

He is survived by parents, Gordon and Barbara Stump (Smith) of Taylorsville, UT; Brother, Darrell Smith of Fort Collins, CO and Jerrold Stump of Taylorsville, UT; Nephews, Tyson Stump and Kody Smith; Nieces, Anastasia Stump and Darrian Smith.

He was preceded in death by his Grandparents, Nelson Smith and Lena Hosteen-Nez (Smith); Pete Walter Stump Sr. and Eleanor Stump (Hubbard) and many uncles and aunts.

As we remember Stump, we sit here in all the memories and continue to live for him. Tomorrow is never promised but what we can remember Jason always telling his tribe “You’ll never walk alone”.
