Ja'rii loved swimming, bicycling, going on nature walks, skating, gaming, dining out, rock climbing, playing basketball, looking at the arts, and being in the presence of family and friends. He was loved and known for his genuineness, generosity, and compassion. Ja'rii touched the lives of everyone he met. He was meek, humbled, and warm-hearted and illuminated every room he entered with his presence. He was blessed with the ability to effortlessly make others smile and laugh.
