I was deeply saddened to learn yesterday of Jared's passing.Words fail at a time like this but please accept my most sincere sympathy. I will always remember him as that little five or six year old that loved his books and night time stories. The last time I baby sat for him, he made me a bookmark.I still have it and will always cherish it. You all are in my thoughts and prayers and may God give you the strength you need during this difficult time.

Dear Mr. and Mrs. Bush, I had Jared as a student his junior year and I was very saddened when I received a call telling me of his passing. As a mother I cannot even imagine the grief you both must be going through. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

I was so sorry to miss Jared's service -- I was traveling with my Mother on a Senior Center trip. Paul was deeply touched to be there and to be a part of a wonderful tribute to a very special young man. Please know that we are keeping all of you in our prayers. We can't imagine your pain -- we just know that we love you dearly and hold each of you in our hearts. We are so honored to have known Jared, and so blessed to have his help in VBS and the Preschool Sunday School. We will always remember his sweet spirit, his love of God's creation, and his gentle and loving ministry to children. We have no words to offer (what could any of us say?), only our love and prayers for God's supernatural comfort. And we are praying fervently for His protection, provision, and empowerment during this difficult time. May His divine love surround you completely.

Dear Bush Family, you have been such a blessing in our lives, and we are so grateful. We are praying for God's peace in your lives. Jared was a servent of God and he brought joy to many lives. It was good to have him in our Sunday School class. His death will not be in vain or his life a waste, because God will bring about great things through this sad event. May the Lord's peace be with you all always. Proverbs 3:5,6 (amp) tells us: "Lean on, trust in, and be confident in the Lord with all your heart and mind and do not rely on your own insight or understanding. In all your ways know, recognize, and acknowledge Him, and He will direct and make straight and plain your paths". May you trust in the Lord always. With deepest Christian love, your family in Christ,

I taught Jared in Sunday School, 4th grade and liked him. He was a good kid. The last time I talked to him he was looking forward to getting a Mustang and was telling me what all he was going to do to it to fix it up. Going to miss him a lot. I saw him almost every Sunday. May God bless and comfort his parents, Phil and Carolyn
