His voice carried over well. I was blown away when he was a voice actor for an episode of We Bare Bears as Silver Bear. The episode was called Imaginary Friend and it was obvious that he was supposed to be a tribute to the Power Rangers.

[@ryanperez1999]

@@richardwieder885 Yeah. It was. I did like that episode. Probably my favorite episode of We Bare Bears. I think it was the first animated voice role. Maybe the creator of We Bare Bears grew up watching Power Rangers too. Now, it's hard to watch the episode without choking up. He was my imaginary friend too.

I met Jason David Frank October 30th at the San Antonio Big Texas comic con. 3 weeks before he passed away. He was so sweet he signed so many things for free. He even signed my sister's badge.

[@themodernholmes1735]

I was a baby (only a few months old) at the time when Thuy Trang passed away. It was incredibly sad learning this years later but when I learned about Jason David Frank's death, I'll never forget the moment I first learned of his passing, and I was unable to watch any Power Rangers episodes he was in, and I'll never forget how cool he was and how he really seemed to care about the fans. I was more of a Green Ranger fan than a White Ranger fan, but he was lovely and kind, as was Thuy. I never met JDF, but I've heard both him and Thuy were so kind and just loving and caring and kind. Seeing the MMPR episode Welcome to Venus Island hits different since Tommy and Trini had to work together to save the other Rangers.

[@K.J.S.est1994]

Jason’s shock passing absolutely devastated me in November last year as his portrayal of Tommy Oliver will go down as one of my favourite iconic characters of my late nineties/early 2000s childhood since I can remember watching Mighty Morphin Season 2 (When Tommy returned as the White Ranger) and the 1995 movie on VHS when I was five years old back in 1999/2000 whilst also being a fan of Power Rangers In Space as little me thought that Tommy was a better leader than Andros. I even had the White Tigerzord action figure I got from my cousin as a Hand Me Down. I’ll never forget seeing and talking to Jason at Supanova in Sydney back in 2016 (when I had various problems with my mental health and autism spectrum disorder) and saying thanks for making my childhood so awesome. Jason’s passing hit me like a truck and upset me incredibly hard. Jason will be missed dearly…

I was emailing back and forth with JDF about 6 months before he passed. We literally talked for weeks. As a 37 yo, I watched early Power Rangers as a kid religiously. Had toys, the whole shabang. It was truly mind blowing to be talking to him, but that's just how he was. A regular person, that enjoyed people. He sent me a hand autographed 8×10 of his ranger debut kicking some butt in the woods. Our conversations are the true treasure though. Thank you JDF, see ya on the other side.💪
