Jared Ryan Thompson

Jared:

Nearly not a day goes by that you don't cross my mind. When I arrived here on campus this past fall, I would see friends that knew each other. I would wish to myself that you could have been here. We could work on remodelling our lives together. I know you are looking down on us all now. No more pain and discomfort but rather joy and true serenity; found only in the Lord. Til we meet again brother...

Hi Joanie and Tommy
I met both your boys the day you were leaving Glendale for Oklahoma. They were well mannered, curtious and kind.
You and Tommy raised them well.

Jared is now home with the Lord. In perfect peace. As christians we live with this great assurance that in heaven we all shall meet...we will.
Ziren and I love you and Tommy.

Dear Jared,
Today on your birthday, you and your mom and dad are in our thoughts and prayers...
May you have a blessed birthday in Heaven...
Love from Hannah's mom & dad

Dearest Joanie: I was so glad to see you earlier today but so saddened by your news. I did not know your sons but knowing you for these many years I know they must have been fine young men. Please know that you and Tommy will be in my thoughts and prayers. May your days be filled with God's light and love as you recall the many wonderful memories you all shared together. Please be assured that I will keep in touch. With love,

Carol Sue Taylor

Dear Jared,
It has just been since March 2nd that we last hugged and squeezed good-bye. You had just hope in your heart and love in your eyes.
We miss your physical presence so much. I just watched one of your favorite programs and I hope you had already seen the show. It was about Earl's mom and dad. It warmed my injured heart. Daddy and I will go on until it is time to come be with God, Jared and Dean. We are going to see Craig and Kari Cohen tomorrow and we get to ride in...

Joni and Tommy
I know that this past weekend has been quite difficult for you. As you know, holidays always are. I lost my father 4 days before Father's Day. I do know that time helps. It doesn't totally take away the pain, yet the sadness becomes manageable.
Joni and Tommy, you meant so much to Jared. He respected and admired you and was always willing to accept your love.
I know it may not feel like it, but his spirit remains alive within you and your memories. Share...

Joanie and Tommy,
My prayers are with you. Jared was a light of hope and an inspiration to keep on keeping on. His spirited perseverance in a troubled world is hope for all.
You have been blessed with the time you have had with both Jared and Dean. Our world is a better place because God loaned their spirits to us for awhile.
They are with our Creator now, more than likely keeping an eye on you two.
My prayers are with you now and for many years to come.
With...

Jared,
It is an honor to know you through this guestbook and through your mother, and we look forward to meeting you in Heaven someday...

Joanie,
You and Tommy will remain in our prayers. As you know, our daughter Hannah is also in Heaven. What a wonderful place it must be! If Jack and I can be of help to you in any way, please just let us know...

Praying for God to comfort you, as only He can do...

Hannah's Mom & Dad
