Jason E. Nichols

Jason E. Nichols, 55, of Westborough and formerly of Brooklyn, CT, passed away unexpectedly on Saturday, November 23, 2024, at his residence.

Born in Dorchester, MA, he was a son of the late Donald and Nancy (Young) Nichols, and was raised and educated in Hingham, MA.

He proudly served in the United States Air Force during Desert Storm.

Jason has been employed with BNEG since 2008 and was known by all who worked with him as “Big Papi.” His loving and caring nature will be remembered by all who had the pleasure of working beside him.

He lived for his family and expressed his love through cooking, making them laugh with his antics and pranks constantly. He enjoyed reminiscing on all the memories with his family. He loved golfing with his sons and friends (although he swore that he got worse with each swing). He especially loved traveling to Las Vegas over the holidays to see his favorite in-laws, nieces and nephews.

Jason leaves the love of his life and wife of 30 years, Laurie Nichols, 58, and his children Alex Johnson, 35, Ashley Nichols, 31, Emma Nichols, 26, Devin Nichols, 23. He also leaves behind his grandson Spencer Gomez-Nichols, 2, siblings Matthew Nichols, 51, Victoria Damon, 54.

Jason was predeceased by his siblings Leah Belcher, 50, and David Nichols, 38.

Calling hours will be held from 10 A.M. to 1 P.M. on Wednesday, November 27, in the Pickering & Son Upton Funeral Home, 45 Main Street, Upton, MA.

A Celebration of Life will immediately follow calling hours at the Post Office Pub Restaurant, 1 Ray Street, North Grafton, MA.

In lieu of flowers, donations in his memory may be sent to Big Night Big Heart through Big Night Entertainment Group at bignight.com/jason.
