Jared Mauer Whalen

Oh Jared, I think of you often and when I do I always have a smile appear from ear to ear and a true, deep giggle stirs. Your spirit is missed here but most definitely still felt. I bet Heaven is amazing and I cannot wait to see you again. May you be at peace and know you are adored and that the world feels different with your absence. I love you my friend. I´m so happy we met so young and shared some truly great times. I cherish your soul. RIP and I´ll see you one day. Much love and...

I only recently found out about Jared's passing and was saddened that his life ended too soon. I remember working with Jared when he was chef at Pho - we did an event together and he mesmerized the crowd not only with his cooking ability but with his humor and kind disposition. He was always willing to share his talents. Prayers going his way and for his family.

Blessings,
Rita Heikenfeld

Jared was a very talented, creative chef who worked harder than everyone else. You will be missed brother. It was a pleasure opening Pigall's with you. I was always mesmerizing watching you, Chef, Roy, Todd and Karen( and many others) make magic happen in that kitchen. You were a bright light and a good soul. I hope you are at peace and we can catch up someday.
