Jerad Allen Klein's Obituary
Our beloved Jerad Klein was born April 1, 1994 and left us all too soon to join the Lord on August 2, 2017.
Jerad was very close to both his parents. He loved spending time with his mother Shannon. She would cook his favorite meals and spent time with her at the river property. She will miss most of all is his bear hugs and sloppy kisses. He and his dad Chuck spent a lot of time with big trucks. They would wash, clean, polish, shop for chrome and best of all go truckin. They enjoyed the truck shows every year as well.
Jerad loved his brothers and sisters. They would goof off when ever possible. The relationships between all of them made family gatherings a hoot. His sense of humor made everyone laugh.
Jerad loved jeeping, camping, fishing, shooting, and bon fires with his friends of which there are plenty. He enjoyed visiting grandparents Ken and Marilyn in Arizona and the river property. Grandma Pat and Papa Bob spent time at Ocean Shores. He went to a Mariners game every year with Aunt Marla, Uncle Bill, and cousin Tyler. Jerad, Sarah and Red would go wheeling back in the day. So many great memories.
Jerad was a great guy who no matter what was there when you needed him. That was different for everyone. Chores, to work on a rig, hang Christmas lights, some one to listen, or someone to laugh with.
Jerad is survived by his parents Shannon, Chuck and step mother Jackie, his sister Samantha, step siblings Blake and Karisa. He also leaves behind maternal grandparents Ken and Marilyn, Paternal grandmother Pat (preceded by paternal grandfather Bob), and step grandparents Brownie and Ron. He is also survived by several aunts, uncles, cousins, niece Bella, coworkers and friends.
