It is with complete shock and devastation that we share the news for the passing of our sweet Jared, on Saturday May 8, 2021. Jared left us earth side to meet our father in heaven. To know him is to love him. He was everyone's cheerleader and best friend. He made everyone feel welcomed, loved and was a safe space for anyone who needed to talk.
My heart aches for the fact that I will never be able to hear his laugh ,or listen to his hilarious stories.
Jared Michael Tucker, our beloved son, brother, uncle, grandson, cousin and friend passed away on May 8,2021 in Salt Lake City, Utah.
Jared was born on April 13,1978 to his parents Debra and David Tucker in Anaheim, California.
Jared has a heart of gold and adored his big sister, Julie and his very special niece Sckyler whom he became very close with this past year, they were buddies, playing video games and having their Saturday night movie night together and shopping and just talking and being so connected. Jared was always smiling and had a positive attitude with his life and what he did.
When Jared would give you a hug you knew he met it! Jared loved to work and keep busy, he had many positions in customer service and the restaurant industry.
Whatever Jared set his mind to do he accomplished it. He loved to decorate his room and was a very organized person.
He always took pride in his work and did his very best. Jared loved to shop with his best friend Walter, they would shop the stores in Cedar and Jared always came home with great buys and would say "I'm back, look what I got!”
Jared loved the thrill of an adventure and walking the trails in the Cedar mountains.
Jared was the best player of all for mortal Kombat and taught his nephew Brian all the ins and outs of the game.
Jared was a collector of the Power Rangers and Star Trek figures. Jared loved watching the golden girls and loved pink flamingos. Jared lived a good life and was honest in his dealings and never said an unkind word about anyone. He loved his family very very very much.
Jared's last year of his life was his Best, he accomplished so much and was so proud of what he had accomplished.
Jared touched so many lives in his 43 years on this earth. Jared has a very special bond with his mother and always complimented her and they always helped each other through thick and thin. They always watched over each other and were the best of friends.
Jared we will forever miss your presence in our lives, my Jar Bear. FLY HIGH!!!
