Jason T. Kuna, 43, of Avoca, passed away on Wednesday, October 30, 2024, at Hospice Of The Sacred Heart, Dunmore. He was born in Scranton, August 22, 1981, and was the son of the late Thaddeus and Jean (Strasburger) Kuna.
Jason was a member of Queen of the Apostles Parish Church, Avoca. He was a graduate of West Scranton High School, Scranton, PA. He was employed by Cascade Tissue Group, Ransom and most recently with the Azek Company, Scranton.
Jason was a devoted and loving husband and father, who left us far too soon. Jason was a man of many passions: he found joy in cooking and barbecuing for his loved ones, and nothing made him happier than playing outdoors with his children. A fan of the Buffalo Bills, he loved cheering for his team. Music filled his life, and family vacations to the Outer Banks were treasured traditions that brought everyone together. Jason was also a skilled roofer and carpenter, generously sharing his expertise with anyone who needed help. His fearless spirit and unwavering love will remain in the hearts of all who knew him. We extend our deepest gratitude to the doctors, nurses, and staff at Lehigh Valley Hospital and Hospice of the Sacred Heart for their outstanding care, compassion, and support during Jason’s final days.
He will be deeply missed but never forgotten.
