Dear Yvonne and Bob,
Words seem so inadequate to express the sadness I feel. My heart is broken for you and your family. Knowing the profound love we have for our precious grandchildren, I can not even imagine the pain you are going through. I can only pray for God's comfort and peace and hope you may find strength in the love of your family and friends, and the special memories of you and Jared together. I also pray that God wraps his loving arms around Derik, Glenda & Dylan to give them strength in the days and weeks ahead. Love and prayers to you all.

My dear sweet Jared. I cannot imagine my world without him. I miss him so much, my heart is broken.
Being the first grand son, he held a special place in our hearts. He always made the other three, though several years younger, feel like they were on his age level and never sent them away. He played his senior role like a master.
Jared would text me often, usually one in return to my three or four, but that was fine by me.....................I was grateful for all he could give. I want him back, I want him to text me, I want him to throw his big arms around me again, I want to hear " I love you Nana", I want, I want, I want. Dear God I loved that young man with all my heart.
He was a blessing to our family and a joy to be in his presence. I pray The Lord will help us find some peace in the loss of Jared. My prayers are with his huge network of friends, teachers, administrators, coaches and church family who were a part of Jared's short life. Thank you for loving him and may his memory live in you.

We are very thankful for the time we had with Jared. He was a blessing to our lives. Our family will remember many wonderful qualities about Jared, expecially how wonderful he was with Cole and Lane. He always made them feel included. They were never left behind because they were younger. Instead, he would play with them in the pool, bury them in the sand, or ride on the tube with them in the lake. We will miss his shy smile and loving heart. You are loved and missed dearly.
