Jason Cole
Jason Cole was diagnosed with ALS but chose to embrace the life he has left, bolstered by his purpose: to help create a brighter future for those with ALS and their loved ones. His focus shifted from future to present, becoming more patient, mindful, and present for his family. Jason cherishes the unconditional love of his wife, Rachel, and their three children, David, Max, and Tessa.
He encourages his family to live fully, love deeply, and remember the moments that matter. Savor family holidays, cheer for the LA Galaxy, and enjoy every moment with good sportsmanship. “Cherish Sunday game night with family, it’s a tradition that brings you closer together,” he says. “And never miss a chance to play a friendly game of football with your cousins; those moments of joy are priceless.” Jason always would say, “Always remember these three words, ‘I love you,’ and know that they will be remembered forever.”
