A memorial service for Jason will be held on May 22, 2010, at the First Baptist Church in Bay City where he and Shelley were married. Service will begin at 2 p.m. with Reverend Clyde Grier officiating.

Donations may be made to the Shelley Anderson Benefit Fund at Prosperity Bank at 1600 Seventh Street, Bay City, Texas 77414.

A cenotaph has been erected in the Midfield Cemetary in Jason's honor. He is also survived by his children, Lacy Kathleen and Ryver Clay.Jason Anderson, 35, Midfield, TX, wasn’t even supposed to be on the Deepwater Horizon that day. Anderson had been with the rig since it launched from a South Korean shipyard in 2001. By 2010, the Bay City, Texas, man had risen to senior tool pusher, akin to a foreman on a construction site.

Anderson was transferring to another rig, and went out to the Deepwater Horizon to train his replacement, says his widow, Shelley. When he arrived, the trainee wasn’t there, but Jason stayed over to clean out his locker and spend just a little more time with his “rig brothers.”
