Jarrod was a business owner, member of the SCV, entertainer, follower of Christ, and most importantly a devoted father, son, brother, and family man. He was the most generous, hardworking, big-hearted man and never met a stranger. He was at his happiest when spending time with his family; singing, dancing, laughing, cooking, and dressing comfortably. Ain’t no mountain high enough!
