It is with profound sadness we share that our friend, advocate, and coworker, Jason Niblett, has passed away. Jason had a heart for helping others, especially the victims and families we serve at the Domestic Abuse Family Shelter. He understood that that sometimes the smallest acts of kindness could make the greatest difference in someone's life. He gave of himself so freely, never seeking recognition, but simply wanting to make life a little better for someone else. His compassion touched countless lives, and his contribution to our agency will never be forgotten. We will miss our conversations, our laughter, the challenges we faced together, and simply knowing he was there to help. DAFS has lost a dedicated employee and our victims have lost a compassionate advocate. There will forever be an empty place in our DAFS family that no one else can fill. We are so grateful that God allowed us the privilege of knowing, loving, and working alongside such a special person.
Jason, you made a difference. You mattered. You were loved beyond measure, and you will be missed more than words could ever express. Your work here on earth is finished, but the love you gave and the lives you touched will continue to be a part of your beautiful legacy.
This is sad. I didn’t know him well but the few times we came and got to meet him he was so passionate about what he did and the people he did it for! I’m so sorry for his family and loved ones. I know he touched so many lives.
When we came up there to bring donations he was always such a bright shinning star. You could feel the love and care for what he did. There are a few people who have a true calling and he really did. He will greatly be missed. 
Jason had a wonderful heart, and it was such a pleasure to be around him and work with him. His personality was so bright and vibrant, and I always thoroughly enjoyed our conversations. Praying for all of Jason’s family and friends during this time.
It was an honor to know Jason Niblett! He was an amazing person and will be missed by so many of us!
A very kind human who will be missed. Prayers to all his family & friends.

Jason was truly a special person, and I am so grateful to have known him. Although we were work colleagues, our connection went beyond the work we shared. He always had a kind word, a warm smile, and a genuine willingness to offer support whenever it was needed. His encouragement, positive spirit, and passion for helping others were just a few of the things I admired about him. Jason had a way of making people feel valued, and his presence was always a joy. My heart is saddened by his passing, but I will forever cherish the conversations we shared. Rest peacefully, Jason. You will be dearly missed, but your light and the kindness you shared will never be forgotten. 💜
I’m so very sorry! Praying for you all to be comforted!
