I have many of the same thoughts. I enjoyed talking to him at those same softball games, always wondered when he would have another well thought out letter to the editor, and knew that he was well respected by a lot of people. I also remember growing up in the same Havelock neighborhood as his children, not more than a couple of blocks from each other. He and his wife raised their children very well.

My family sends their condolences and prayers to his family.

Very good man. Cared deeply for his family and the working men and women of Lincoln, Ne.

RIP

I could always tell that Jared was a good man, someone that was respected in his community. He was a true family man, a man of integrity who genuinely cared about others. I always looked forward to speaking with him when he would attend our softball games so many years ago, and enjoyed reading his occasional Letters to the Editor in the paper. He was well informed and knew what he was talking about.

We know he will be greatly missed by everyone, but he will certainly not be forgotten.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
