Not sure what to say?

It´s hard to believe that it´s been a year since you passed. I really miss you CJ, especially during football season! Your memory is everlasting.

Love you Daddy. Always in our hearts and on our minds.

Forever my love. We had an amazing life together. Thank you for our children and all the travel we shared. It was a great ride.

Not a day goes by that I don´t think about my good friend, CJ. Especially during football season!

I just learned of Mr. Jarman´s death. RIP. He did fine work in "The Yearling, Rio Grande, and Intruder in the Dust. Thanks for his USN service.

I met Claude Jarman over forty years ago when I volunteered at the San Francisco International Film Festival. I felt a special connection because of the similarity of our names. When my job with Francis Coppola´s Zoetrope Studios was transferred to Los Angeles, I told Claude of my struggle of continuing to work for the company I wanted to align myself with or of staying in my beloved, native city. He listened kindly and told me, if I relocated, I could always go home again. After all these...

My mother took me to see "The Yearling" in Newtown Bucks County PA where I grew up. I will be 88 this year and have watched this movie so many times. Claude will always be a memorable actor, in other movies also. Rest in Peace Claude. Elizabeth Jenkins Becker

I coached his son, Murray at a Basketball camp at Stetson U. in Deland FL in about 1977. He was one impressive young man in all aspects. A son any father would be proud of.

I enjoyed Jody´s love for yearling and the land scenes of the movie. My condolences to the family Ecclesiastes 3:11 mankind was created with eternity in our hearts. That´s why the sting of death hurts so bad.
