Charles, Jared Albert, age 26, of Tampa, FL died August 6, 2022. Jared lived a life on the road less traveled. He was a free spirit that did not conform. Those who were fortunate enough to know him knew his heart and authentic truth. He treated everyone with respect and would give everything he had to someone in need. I wish I could have learned more from him. He lived in the moment and mindfulness which so many people struggle to do every day. Some would say Jared was ahead of his time and saw the beauty in everything. He loved rap, dancing, singing, writing, and drawing. He could talk to anyone about anything, read more books than most, got a full college scholarship, loved art and the list goes on. To me, he will always be my Jar Jar. He loved Star Wars, all animals, crab legs and so much more! He is sadly missed by so many. His smile warmed hearts wherever he went.
He is survived by:
Parents – Michele and Eric
Brother – Jacob
Grandfather- Albert
Godmother – Amy and family
