Jarret William Smith, age 44, of Wayne, passed away suddenly and unexpectedly on Friday, June 23, 2023.
Born to William and Patricia (Stanisci) Smith in Livingston, NJ, Jarret spent his formative years in Bloomfield, where he forged lifelong friendships with whom he cherished as brothers. A graduate of Bloomfield High School, Jarret was an integral part of the school's soccer team. He furthered his education at Seton Hall University, graduating with the Class of 2001 and earning a Bachelor's Degree in Graphic Design.
Throughout his entire life, Jarret worked in the automotive industry, fueled by his passion for cars and his genuine desire to help others. His dedication and entrepreneurial spirit led him to establish a successful business within the industry.
Jarret was known for his loving and caring nature, always putting his family and friends first. He dedicated his life to supporting his loved ones and worked tirelessly to build a bright future for them. Whether it was lending a helping hand or offering a listening ear, Jarret was always there, selflessly assisting those in need without expecting anything in return. His remarkable character and unwavering devotion earned him the status of a brother to many. Jarret found immense joy in gathering his loved ones together, creating an atmosphere of happiness, laughter, and unforgettable memories.
Thirteen years ago, Jarret met the love of his life, Amy. Their marriage on September 21, 2019, was a testament to their devoted and loving relationship. Jarret eagerly anticipated the arrival of their son, due in September. He also cherished his daily walks with Charlie, their beloved Labrador, and the cozy moments spent snuggling on the couch with both Amy and Charlie.
Jarret is survived by his beloved wife Amy (Stack) and their soon-to-be-born son (due September). Predeceased by his father, William Smith. He is also survived by his mother, Patricia (Stanisci) Smith, father-in law and mother-in-law John and Carol Stack, sister Heather (Betty) Smith-Bermudez, brother-in-law Michael (Christine) Stack, uncle to Yazmine, Ashley, Trisha, Jack, and Timothy, and great uncle to Luis, as well as numerous aunts, uncles, cousins, family, and friends.
