Jason C. Swigart, 30, Camp Verde, AZ, passed on to heaven Sunday, September 7, 2014, at the Flagstaff Medical Center, as a result of injuries sustained from an off-road vehicle accident on Saturday, August 30. He came into this world on March 20, 1984, in DuBois, PA, as the son of Jeffrey and Diane Swigart, of Cottonwood, AZ.

In addition to a promising career as a heavy equipment mechanic with Fann Contracting of Prescott AZ, Jason also owned his own metal fabrication company W&R Enterprises. Being a lifelong entrepreneur of all things metal and mechanical, he also held jobs in the mining and natural gas industry as well as within the off-road industry. Jason is one of the original members of the Arizona Undertakers 4x4 Club and enjoyed rock crawling as well as competing in the Ultra4 and WeRock DirtRiot series of off road racing. Jason enjoyed hunting and camping, and was a talented metalworker with amazing artistic and design skills.

In addition to his family, Jason leaves behind a list of friends too long to mention here. Jason was the type of person that would drop anything at any time to help someone in need. Many of his lifelong friendships started just that way, as Jason helping a stranger. Jason was his own person and his unique character and humor filled the room whenever he entered. We all have fond memories of the never ending smile that was always on his face! Jason made a positive impact on everyone that he came into contact with and will be missed by so many. In lieu of flowers and in the spirit of what Jason did his whole life, we will hope that you will do an unexpected and unsolicited act of kindness for someone in need.
