In Memory
Jared graduated from the State University of New York at Buffalo with a degree in engineering in 1993, then took some time off to figure out what to do next. His search took him to Key West after some time in Jackson Hole, Wyoming.
We will never know the details of what happened, but Jared drowned in the ocean off Key West in April of 1994. He never married but had many good friends, several of whom have shared their memories of Jared with us and have stayed in touch since his untimely death. Jared was loved by many beyond our family and his loss was a tragedy that affected all of us deeply.
We are touched that he will be remembered by those who shared his time in Korea. I'll attach one of my favorite photos. I think it conveys some of Jared's inner spirit and that thirst for adventure that undoubtedly contributed to his early departure from our midst.
This was shared by Jared's father, Dick Hawley
