Not sure what to say?

I still remember him from over fifty years ago when he served at Saint Paul's Church in Cleveland Heights, Ohio. He was charasmatic, energetic, thoughtful and caring minister. He had a mischeviious sense of humor. He taught my confirmation class in a large room with a chalkboard. While speaking he dropped the chalk and a student next to me in the front row picked it up and handed it to him. A moment later, he dropped the chalk again in front of my friend who again retrieved and...

One of our church's best ministers. Truly, he will never be forgotten in our community.

I know that I am very, very far from alone in having Tony as a mentor and friend, but every time I was with Tony, I felt a deep sense of love and encouragement. I miss him very much already. I wish I could be in Boston today.
With love and admiration,

It is with great sadness that I have learned of Tony Jarvis's death. I was a part of his first youth group at St. Paul's, Cleveland Heights in the 1960s. He was a huge influence for good to many, many young people. Indeed, Tony was a pied piper in the best sense. May he rest in peace and rise in glory.

Wonderful memories of a fun bright energetic seminarian at St. Paul's Church, Brookline, MA in the 1960s. The Dewart family sends the Jarvis family our heartfelt sympathies for your loss. What a wonderful person and incredible educator he was.

A great man, a sad loss. Prayers, Colleen Morgan

Mr Jarvis is in my thoughts and prayers. He will be remembered through the many lives he touched and influenced.
