Jaren Grover Obituary

LOGAN - Jaren Steven Grover, 11 months old, peacefully returned to his Heavenly Father on Nov. 20, 2009, at Primary Children's Hospital due to bacterial meningitis.
He was born Nov. 26, 2008, in Logan, Utah, to Steven and Lindsay King Grover.
Jaren has brought so much joy and meaning into the lives of his family. He has the sweetest little smile that always made our hearts melt. He loved to learn all that he could. A few of his favorite things to do were to spin wheels on his toy cars or girl friends' baby strollers, he loves to brush his teeth and wash his hands. He'd always get this excited smile when it was time to do it. He loved to peek at himself in the mirror and see his little friend, he smiled so big. Every day when he'd take a bath he'd feel the water come out of the tap and sometimes turn the shower on and spray himself really good. He loved to kick and splash in the tub, it was too much fun. He'd also try to catch the swirl of the water going down the drain and he'd lay down and listen to the water drain from the tub. The smallest things were so intriguing to him. Jaren loved to sing songs....he could do the actions to 'patty cake' and he loved to be sang songs such as 'I love you...a bushel and a peck', 'I Am a Child of God', 'I hope they call me on a Mission', and 'I lived in Heaven.' Jaren was sent to our family for a special reason, and he fulfilled his mission here. He has strengthened our testimonies of the Gospel and made us better people. We are so happy to know that one day we will be right with him again. We know he is making people happy in heaven, and that he is bringing joy to them. We love our little angel and will miss him.
Survived by father, Steven Grover; mother, Lindsay King Grover; grandparents, Bruce and Maureen Grover, Jeffrey and Diana King; great-grandmother, Alice Jensen; great-grandparents, Val and Kathy King, Ron and Rosella Boman.
Funeral services will be held at 12 p.m. on Tuesday, Nov. 24, 2009, at the North Logan Stake Center, 2750 N. 800 East, North Logan, Utah. A viewing will take place prior to the funeral from 10 a.m. to 11:45 a.m. in the Stake Center. Jaren will be buried in the North Logan Cemetery. Arrangements are under the direction of Allen Mortuary of North Logan. Condolences may be sent to the family at www.allenmortuaries.net.

Not sure what to say?





To Jaren Grover's Family: I have noticed in recent days that God have chosen to take home several babies and small children. We certainly don't know why. His Plan is perfect. Since today is Thanksgiving,I am thankful for many things, and as I look at the picture of your handsome son, I am adding to my list, the comfort and blessing that he has given me this morning. Someday, you will reach out and hold Jaren, and all will be perfect. All questions will be answered, as we reach out and touch Jesus. What a day that will be, when our Jesus we shall see....Bless you and your family...what a beautiful son you had. I just want to reach out and hug him. You are in my prayers.....Glenda Cruthirds, Flint, Texas

Steven & Lindsay~
Jaren is a most beautiful and perfect little boy. Rob and I pray often for you and know that like our little Benton, Jaren is so delighted and happy to be back home, and yet I also know that like our Heavenly Father, Jaren cries with you. Jaren was too perfect to be here and doesn't have to suffer trials and the pains of this earthly life. I am so grateful for the knowledge of how close the veil is and know Jaren and Benton are right here around us. We love you and would love to get together whenever you guys are ready. I am so sorry for your loss and the heartbreak that is so great. I pray that the peace you have experienced will continue to embrace you two. With much Love

I am so sorry for your pain. Your son is beautiful and without a doubt he is watching over his mommy and daddy, while preparing his other siblings who have yet to come into your family. You haven't "lost" him, he will always be with you, forever. Although, not being in mortality, not being physically with you, is a pain that I am so sorry you have to bare. Lindsay, thank you for the strong impact you've had on my family in Utah, you are a truly inspiring visiting teacher who is true and faithful to your callings. Thank you. We've never met, but I wanted to lend my prayers to your family. ~Melissa Birckhead (Miriam Trappett's sister in law.)

Dear Lindsey and Steven;
You have been in our thoughts and prayers the past week. What an adorable, sweet, little precious boy. Now he is able to share with others, the things the two of you, so lovingly taught him. You were trusted by our Heavenly Father to lead and guide a sweet angel, your little bessing. We wanted to let you know that we care and share in your sorrow.
Love; Mick and Julie Coombs
