Jared Wayne Mead was born on May 15, 1983 in Canby, Minnesota, to Duane and Debra (Harberts) Mead. As a child, he was always busy, you could find him fishing, taking things apart, climbing trees, making forts or wrestling with his siblings. Jared was baptized at the First United Presbyterian Church in Canby, Minnesota and later confirmed his faith at Granite Falls United Church of Christ. He attended Yellow Medicine East School. Jared recently was living in Burnsville, Minnesota, where he was working for NuLook Exteriors doing construction.
Jared’s sons, Dylan and Jackson were his pride and joy. Every moment he could spend with them he would. There was not a moment he was not with his kids or thinking about them. Jared worked hard for what he had. He enjoyed learning about and looking at old vehicles. Jared was always willing to help someone out and cared a lot for others. Even in death, he gave the gift of life to others by donating his heart, liver and kidneys. Jared is a hero.
