Jared OVERFIELD Obituary

OVERFIELD, Jared Wylly June 20, 1986 - April 15, 2015 It is with great sorrow that we announce the passing of our dearest Jared, a son, a brother, a brother-in-law and a loving friend to all who knew him. Jared was born on a lovely June evening at Marin General Hospital to Peter and Patty Overfield and his big brother, David Overfield. Jared grew up in Novato, California and attended All Saints Child Care, Lu Sutton Elementary, Novato Charter School, Sinaloa Middle School, and Marin Waldorf. He graduated from San Marin High School in 2004. As a child he played Little League with his buddies until his love for soccer took over. His speed and grace on the field was a joyful thing to behold. He was an avid snowboarder and a venturous BMX'r, which was only overshadowed by his love of his friends and family. After his graduation he attended Brooks Institute of Photography in Santa Barbara, California, but returned home to Novato to work for both his dads, Peter then Dan before moving on to Maggiora Ghilotti Construction. He found himself rewarded and challenged in his new career. He loved the comradery, pride of completion and the bonds built through hard work. He was a man who enjoyed life and in turn life enjoyed him. With his easy smile and open heart he embraced and held close his relationships. His sharp wit, uncanny dry sense of humor and seemingly endless knowledge on a vast range of interests, most notably music, film, fashion, and basketball. With his discerning eye and sharing spirit he enjoyed becoming an informed resource for his friends and family. But the most important facet of his being was his earnest soul which allowed him a great ease with all those he encountered. He is lovingly survived by his parents, Peter Overfield, Patty Overfield-Zamberlin, Dan Zamberlin and Cindy Rhoton-Overfield; brothers, David Overfield, Jonathan Zamberlin, and Riley Overfield; sisters, Jessica Rhoton, Makaila Overfield, and Laura Overfield; loving grandparents, Ralph Overfield and the late beloved Elizabeth Overfield, Jackie and John Zamberlin. Also survived by cousins, Kyle, Miles, Briar, Breeanna, Logan, Casey, Michael, Lisa, Niki, David, Mark, Daniel, Jake, Zack, Wendy, and Toby; aunts and uncles, Jeff and Pam, Lynn and Jim, Greg and Debby, Lisa and Dan, Lori and Kevin, Roseanne, Mary Jo and Scott, Carol, Jacqui, and Christy. As a family we would love to express our deepest and most sincere gratitude to the unlimited number of Jared's tribe. To all those beautiful people that loved Jared and were loved by him, you are forever cherished by us. Stay classy vatos... Family and friends are invited Friday. April 24, at 5:00 p.m. for a service at All Saint's Lutheran at 2 San Marin Drive in Novato.

I am so saddened by this shocking news. I had just been getting to know Jared and we had hours of conversations and his quick wit had me laughing throughout. He was such a hard worker and his passing seems all the more unjust of how much he gave to his work. I will feel the loss of him for a very long time. My heart goes out to his family and friends. I caught a mere glimpse of how wonderful a person he is.

Dearest Patty and Peter, your loss is felt by so many. Jared played soccer with my son, Connor Reilly at San Marin.. He and Connor were fast friends and Jared spent many hours in my home. He was always kind, joyful and present. Willing and able to share his charismatic personality and sincere love. He never passed me by without stopping to say hello and get caught up. Jared was a very special man. I have held him in my heart from the day I met him. I know all of you, his family, brothers, sisters, friends, loved ones will miss his big personality and presence every day. My most sincere condolences to you all. May your loving memories bring you comfort.
