Jarrod Edward Garwood, age 43, of Rogue River, Oregon, passed away on December 7, 2025.
Jarrod was a devoted father, son, brother, and uncle who took immense pride in fatherhood. He never missed an opportunity to support, encourage, and stand beside his daughters, Krystallyn Garwood and Kaydence Garwood, who were the greatest joy of his life. His love for them was constant, unwavering, and evident to all who knew him.
He is survived by his loving partner, Marti; his daughters, Krystallyn Garwood and Kaydence Garwood; his father, Perry Garwood; his sisters, Karen Stancliff and Tabitha Garwood; his brother, Kiefer Garwood; and many beloved nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his mother, Kristine Mullen.
Jarrod was a proud graduate of Rogue River High School, Class of 2000, where he was a four-year letterman in football and baseball. Known for his charisma and humor, he was voted “Most Likely to Sell Ice to an Eskimo,” a title that perfectly captured his charm, wit, and ability to connect with anyone.
An amazing artist, Jarrod loved to draw and express himself creatively. He enjoyed disc golfing and spending time outdoors. He was known for his unremarkable humor and his loyalty—once you were part of his circle, you could always count on him for anything. Jarrod showed his love through action, laughter, and unwavering presence.
Jarrod will be deeply missed and forever remembered by all who knew and loved him.
