Jason Eugene Brandle was unexpectedly called home to the Lord on Saturday, November 14, 2020. He will be incredibly missed by his loved ones.
Jason was born into a military family on December 3, 1977 in Fort Stewart, GA. Following multiple (military) relocations he ultimately settled in Helena, MT where he spent his formative years.
Jason enlisted in the US Army in 2001 and proudly served our country for 9 years; in the 3rd Battalion, 187th Infantry Regiment “Iron Rakkasans” and the 2nd Battalion, 502nd Infantry Regiment “White Currahees” of the 101st Airborne Division “Screaming Eagles” and finally in the Warrior Transition Battalion. With multiple deployments in (both) Afghanistan and Iraq he received numerous medals and commendations. As a war veteran, Jason carried the scars of such. In spite of those many challenges his spirit remained unwavering.
In addition to his love for his country; Jason might best be remembered for his endearing charm. He always had a smile on his face and as the consummate prankster, was always the life of the party, leaving smiles and laughter in his wake. His wit was sharp and his heart was kind, you could (always) count on him to conjure up fun gifts for his family. Jason loved hunting, fishing and all of the outdoors, with an impeccable sense of direction when in the wilderness. He loved animals and they loved him. Naturally gifted in everything he did, Jason was an avid hockey player as well as an accomplished folf and pool player. He enjoyed friendships and travel. Jason’s strong will and rigid work ethic led to many accomplishments; the proudest of which were his three children.
He is preceded in death by his grandfather James Porch and grandmother Beverly Rhodes. He is survived by his children; Kenneth, Jaron, Alauna and their mother (Leah), his parents Ken and Kim Robbins, Larry Brandle (biological father), Siblings Meladie Brandle (Mike), Melissa Brandle (Kyle), Michael Robbins (Amber) and grandparents Larry and Bernadine Keenan, as well as 3 nephews, numerous aunts, uncles, cousins and his many military brothers.

I also did not know Jason, but I am a fellow veteran. It is a terrible tragedy to lose a young man like Jason in the prime of his life. I know he gave his all in service to the United States of America and I thank him for that.

Jason was going to be a wonderful husband to my daughter and father to her children, especially Abel who died with Jason. I am more sorry than I can express that I did not get a chance to officially welcome Jason to our family although he was already a cherished member of it. My heart goes out to all of Jason’s family. You will be in my thoughts and prayers forever.

Jason was one of my best friends. We worked and hung out together all the time. He was a wonderful person and through his hard shell, he was an extremely kind hearted and giving individual. He would literally do anything for me and me for him. We were currently working on building a garage addition on my little house. It will be extremely hard finishing it without his presence. Miss you my friend!
Josh says
Jason was a man ready to give good advice to those who looked up to him. He was a man of good honor. My condolences to the family and may they receive all my love and prayers through this hard and difficult time.
