Jarrod was a wonderful grandson. He will always remain a part of our family and continue to live in our hearts forever. He was a great dad to Canaan and Collin always boasting about his two boys. He was a committed baseball coach to all players including his two sons Canaan and Collin and cousin Shane. He had many cousin in-laws whom he called brothers and remained close to them. We were blessed to have him in our family. Heaven has gained a very special soul. Our prayers go out to everyone who loved him.

Jarrod was a one of a kind. He made me laugh with that crazy obnoxious sense of humor of his. We always knew when Jarrod was around you could hear his crazy laugh everywhere. You made such a huge impact on everyone you met my friend. There's a huge hole there now. We love you and miss you my friend. Until we see you at those pearly gates little bro. God bless. -

Jarrod lived down the street from me growing up. I can remember just hanging out with him and other neighbor kids shooting hoops. I saw him a couple weeks ago in his front yard when I visited my parents. I havent spoken to him since we were in grade school, but I often saw him outside with his son when I drove by going to my parents, he was always smiling. From everyone's FB posts he obviously was very loved and made great impressions on the lives of many. I send prayers and my deepest condolences to his mother, children, love of his life and the many other family and friends he has left behind. The world lost a wonderful man, may he be your guardian angel and give you all the strength to overcome this unexpected loss.
