On July 28, 2017, God called home his angel, Mr. James Jarmont Jarrett, Jr. While our hearts are saddened at our sudden loss, we know that God has a plan and a purpose for everything in our lives.

Known to his family and friends by many lovable nicknames such as Jarmont, Jaime, Manni-Poo, and Tripp, he was a lovable, smart, chill, cool, laid back and funny person who loved to have fun and spend time with family and friends.
