994 | Turning Tragedy into Purpose: Jason Tuttle’s Powerful Story of Loss & Healing I'm Jason Tuttle, I have story of trials, tribulations, and triumphs. I am the father of two kids (born two years a part in the first three years of my marriage) with multiple physical and cognitive special needs (some rare). My son at 15 years old suddenly and unexpectedly passed away on 01/28/22. Since that day after a period of grieving, I decided that I wanted to take the devastation of my son's passing and make something positive out of it. So I created the Letters To Zachary Grief Community to help men open up to their emotions and vulnerability relating to grief as well as to empower women to understand the way the men in their lives grieve. If you are interested, I'd love to chat. God Bless.
