    I am so sorry to hear of Jared’s passing! Jared was our daughter’s boyfriend in 2020-2021… Liz Lacey. She lost her life in the same way on November 29, 2023.

    Jared and Lizzie came to stay at our house in Minnesota in 2020 for a short time. They were trying to get clean and we desperately wanted to help. It was a short-lived trip but we’ll forever have Jared’s and Lizzie’s heights marked on our wall – Jared remains the tallest of everyone.

    We liked Jared a lot and stayed in touch a little bit after Lizzie’s death. I told him that I hoped he would get help so that he wouldn’t end up on this awful fatality list. The last time we connected was on his birthday 2024.

    Our thoughts are with you as you try to navigate through the horrific pain and move forward.

    Jared spent many days at our home when he was young, skateboarding with our son, Jared. We always enjoyed spending time with him.

    I’m so sorry for your loss! Jared was a friend of my son, Thaddeus. I only had contact with Jared on a few occasions, Jared always addressed me as “you’re Thaddeus’s Mom, tell him I’m thinking about him.” I knew of Jared, but didn’t have a lot of contact with him. He seemed like a caring, compassionate soul. Always asking about someone else, to see if they were ok. I will keep your family in my thoughts and prayers.

    I became friends with Jared a few years ago and from the 1st day I met him till the day he passed he was always a amazing friend who was there for me through thick and thin. I had pneumonia and just wanted some Wendy’s he took it upon himself walked to Wendy’s gets there and the lobby is closed. He then tried to walk through the drive through which they said no he couldn’t do Jared stood and asked every car that was pulling through if they could place my order even paid the person. So after almost two hours he shows back up with Wendy’s. You had a awesome son. I’m definitely going to miss him everyday.
