Elder DeVries


We are so proud of our Uncle Jared! He entered the MTC on June 4. We all got to be there through the send off process. It was sad to see him go because we sure love him, but we know that the people in Hartford, Connecticut will love him just as much as we do! What an incredible example to our boys!
Jared and Kerry have been so close his whole life! We hope Grandpa won't be too lonely without his sidekick! Maybe we can take advantage of his time and personality traits that fascinate our boys...they'd LOVE to hangout with Grandpa more!!!


It was so sweet to see all of our children respond differently to Jared's emotions and try to console him, without letting on that they were sad too. Jared was Nate's age when Nate was born, so Jared is more like a tormenting, fun big brother to Nate! Good luck Jared! We love you!

That Jared sure makes a handsome missionary. I miss him allready. I know you don't like to hear it but your boys will be handsome missionaries too.
