History:
Jason Griffin was the first of four children that his parents had. His parents were Levi and Ryan Griffin. He of course was born for his father. Becoming the second in mere moments. His parents fought for days on making sure they had the right name for there son even when she was pregnant. She had loved her son and was happy and thrilled to be having a boy. A boy who would be able to continue the name legacy. When Jason was one year old, his little brother Josh was born. When Jason was two, his sister Regina was born. It was a pretty much a happy family. The kids were perfect. Being that they were in Canada the kids really didn't have much to worry about. Jason was a good kid. He was what most parents wanted for a perfect little son.
Jason was into all the things he should be. Elementary school he had joined football. Yes they had a team as young as that. He joined then and buffed up a little bit. Making sure to keep up with his body weight even at that age. Also joining the wrestling team in middle school. When it was time for High School Jason was deep involved with mostly every sport. He barely had time for his family. This caused issues with his parents and younger siblings. Jason just wanted to do things on his own and he was always forced to watch Regina and Josh and Roxi. Soon things would change. Especially when he was going to college. Sure they didn't attend the same college plus he would have at least two years or more before they attended college.
It was in College that Jason met his wife, Rachel. He and her grew to become great friends. Rachel was a straight A student, destined to work in the Law field. She was going through her bar when the two of them got married. Then they were soon quick to have a family. They had there daughter, Neveah who was the light of there world. After giving birth, there were some tests because of her stomach sticking out to much. It appeared that she had stomach cancer, and she was to far gone.
His and Neveah's life went upside down, when his wife died after Chemo failing to work. He and his daughter weren't much of a family on there own. But he knew he was the only thing she had. He still to this day wears his wedding band on a necklace with her high school ring on it. He misses her but knows better things will come.
So when Jason got the invitation he was quick to jump on it. Maybe his luck on meeting some ladies would change. Maybe he would find his true love once more at Willow Brooke Correctional Facility, perhaps a staff member. He only hopes that they understand about Neveah and what happened to her mother. How she died unexpectingly from Cancer. How his world had been changed because of that. Slowly he is trying to reach out and meet new people.
