Jason Flagg Obituary
At the age of 50, Jason Flagg passed away peacefully in his Mill Creek home after a battle with cancer. He was surrounded by the love of his wife and mother.

A devoted father, husband, coach, and friend, Jason lived a life defined by passion, generosity, and unwavering dedication to the people he cared about most.

Jason found his greatest joy in watching his children, Jayden and Braydon play sports. Whether cheering from the sidelines or shooting hoops with his kids in the barn, out in yard catching or pitching balls. He was their biggest supporter and constant source of strength and encouragement. His love for sports extended far beyond his own family—Jason was an inspiring basketball coach whose influence reached countless young athletes in the New Prairie community. Through his guidance, leadership, and belief in every player, he helped shape not only their skills but also their confidence and love for the sport.

Family was at the heart of everything Jason did. He cherished moments together around the campfire, playing bags, watching sports, going to the newest Star Wars and Marvel movies. Though a true competitor, he carried a calm, easygoing presence.

When he wasn’t on a court, field or with his family, Jason enjoyed spending peaceful hours on the golf course with his friends, especially at “the Pines”.. Golf gave him time to reflect, recharge, and appreciate the simple joys of life with the people he loved.

Jason leaves behind a legacy of love, integrity, and service. He will be deeply missed and forever remembered by his family, friends, players, and all who were fortunate enough to know him.

Jason is survived by his wife (high school sweetheart of 26 years) Brandee Flagg, his mother Suzanne Flagg, daughter Jayden Flagg, In laws, Martin and Vicky Mosson, John Sinka. Sister-in-law Angela and Bill Warner, Scott and Jessica Sinka, nieces and nephews, Kylie Briner, Evan Warner, Brock, Carson and Mason Sinka, and Morgan and Lauren Flagg as well as a number of aunts , uncles and cousins. He was preceded in death by his son Braydon Flagg , father Mike Flagg, brother Matt Flagg , grandparents Donald and Maxine Wilson and Leslie and Betty Flagg.

Services will be held at Kaniewski Funeral Home in South Bend. The viewing will take place Friday, November 28 from 3-7 Est with an additional hour of viewing on Saturday, November 29 from 12-1 EST A Celebration of Life will follow immediately after. Anyone that knew Jason , knows he did not like to get all “dressed up”. Feel free to wear casual attire to the services.

In lieu of flowers, Jason asked for donations to the Braydon Flagg Memorial Fund ( in honor of his son) at any 1st source bank.

To plant a beautiful memorial tree in memory of Jason Flagg, please visit our Tree Store.

We extend our deepest sympathies to the Jason Flagg family.
Please keep his mother, Sue, his wife, Brandee, his daughter, Jayden, and the entire family in your prayers.
May God surround them with peace, strength for the days ahead, and the comfort they need most in this difficult time.
Holding them all close in our hearts. 💛
