Jarrett was not only the co-founder of J Keyton Company but also a licensed insurance agent who dedicated himself to helping others secure their futures.

An ardent fan of "The Golden Girls," Jarrett often quoted lines from this classic show during gatherings—a testament to his playful spirit that resonated deeply within his circle of friends. He embraced life's joys wholeheartedly while reminding us all how important it is to celebrate each moment together.
