He was the best father anyone could ask for. Dad taught me alot of important lessons, and he had helped me face my fears on several occasions. If it weren't for him, I wouldn't be who I am today. Vaya con dios, dad...

Dear Jarvis Family,

My sincerest condolences on Dean's passing. Dean and I went through Crestview and North High together (Class of '74), played alot of playground basketball with Steve. I remember Dean as a fun, thoughtful and kind person and will always fondly remember our school days in Clintonville together. My thoughts and prayers are with the entire Jarvis family.

With Deepest Sympathies,
Dave Heilman

Dear Laura and Family,
I was very sorry to hear about your loss. You and your family have been in my thoughts and prayers. You have a special place in my heart, even though I haven't talked to you in a long time.(I think it was Cheri's funeral 5 years ago.) I hope you know how much you are loved and thought about and I am always just a phone call away. Take care and God Bless.

Laura,
Marji, Katie and I are here for you and the boys. We lit candles in church today for Dean and Dad. They are probably in heaven's garage working on a project.
Love You,
Steve

I’m sorry for your loss of Dean. I'm sad for you, the boys and Dean's family. Even though it's a hard thing for you, the boys and also Dean's mother, brothers and sister to go through. You must think of all the great things that you've had with him and celebrate his death as a new life in a better place. With all the love, prayers, and Deans smiles from above. From us to you, LOVE THE MARSHALL FAMILY.
Laura call me anytime.
