Jared Goodfellow Obituary

1972 ~ 2012
Jared Lynn Goodfellow, 39, passed away peacefully at the home of his parents on April, 23, 2012. He will sorely be missed but we know he was 'welcomed home' by several loved ones waiting on the other side of the veil.
He was born May 2, 1972, in Salt Lake City to Dennis Gordon Goodfellow and Rita Annie Downs. Jared loved the outdoors and being in the mountains, camping, fishing or hunting. He also loved his nieces and nephews. They meant the world to him and he loved treating them to candy or anything sweet. He also loved animals, especially his dog, and best friend, Thumper and bird 'Sweetie.' Jared is survived by his parents, siblings Debbie (Craig), Bryan (Lisa), Cory, Nicole and many favored nieces and nephews.
Graveside services will be held Thursday, April 26, 11:00 a.m. at Redwood Memorial Estates, 6500 South Redwood Road. Friends and family may call the night prior, Wednesday, April 25th from 6:00 - 8:00 p.m. at the Taylorsville Central Stake Center, 4950 South 1950 West, Taylorsville Directors Independent Funeral Service.

We always had fun when were together. Lava was the best. Hanging out at Grandma Griffth's in the summer, walking to the store for treats, then stopping at his Grandma & Grandpa Goodfellows for a visit. You are now free from your pain, enjoy heaven.
