Jarred Layne Phillips July 31, 1981- July 17, 2010.

I truly understand what it means to have a heavy heart. I feel like mine weighs a thousand pounds and is going to burst right through my chest. I've felt true and intense pain in my life but I think this heartache outdoes it all. Every second memories of him flash through my mind and so many regrets assault me. Jarred was so funny, loving, compassionate, forgiving and had a bigger than life personality. I can't stand the thought that I'll never hear his voice or see his face again in this life. He left behind three children that he fought so hard for and worked so hard to prove he could be a good daddy. He loved them so much. But drugs can take hold of you and take everything away.

I know he is happy to be with Scotty again and I imagine he is now everything he was always meant to be. I know he now understands it all, everything he went through and was meant to experience in this life. I hope his death will teach many, maybe even save a life one day.
