I really had some mixed feelings about posting this, but in my own way it helps.
Jared is my middle son and was diagnosed on April 26th 1988 with Cystic Fibrosis, I can still remember that day in the hospital with him bundled up in blankets and a snowsuit for his "Sweat Chloride" test's. When we got the news he had C.F. it changed life forever.
Trips to the doctor, medication, clinic & therapy were the norm. Jared went along with things for the most part and nightly therapy would put him to sleep, as he just got used to it. Jared "Gino" to his friends was the life of the party and made the most of his time.
While we sometimes never saw eye to eye I never stopped loving him. Jared spent the last two weeks in hospital trying to fight off this last round of infections, he lost his battle at 4:30am on May 5th 2010 with family and a few close friends at his side.......
Jared we will miss you deeply and will always love you.....Godspeed be with you......Dad...
He loved this song.................and it seems fitting........



Float On .. by Modest Mouse

I backed my car into a cop car, the other day.
Well he just drove off, sometimes life's ok.
I ran my mouth off a bit too much, oh what did I say.
Well you just laughed it off, it was all ok.

And we'll all float on, ok.
And we'll all float on, ok.
And we'll all float on, ok.
And we'll all float on any way, well.

A fake Jamaican took every last dime with a scam.
It was worth it just to learn some sleight-of-hand.
Bad news comes don't you worry even when it lands.
Good news will work its way to all them plans.
We both got fired on exactly the same day.
Well we'll float on good news is on the way.

And we'll all float on, ok.
And we'll all float on, ok.
