On May 31, 2016, the world lost an incredible, extraordinary soul. Jared was a cherished son, brother, grandson, nephew, cousin, uncle, and friend.
He was born May 2, 1984 to James Roberts, Jr., and Treasa Riley in Salt Lake City.
He graduated from Riverton High School in 2002. He explored different paths after high school starting with computer programming and technology, but ultimately discovered his passion in the field of neurobiology.
He received his Associates degree in Psychology with honorable mention in 2008 from Salt Lake Community College. His continuous desire to learn led him to The University of Utah, where he received his Bachelor of Science degree in Psychology in 2012.
He had found his ultimate passion. His exceptional talent had put him on the radar of two prestigious schools: Johns Hopkins University and University of California Irvine. He chose to attend Johns Hopkins but, after a couple years, he ultimately decided to follow his professor, mentor, and friend, Dr. Michael Yassa, to UC Irvine. There, he was tirelessly working towards the completion of his PhD in Neurobiology and Behavior, which he would have completed in 2017.
He was a brilliant scientist, a gifted mentor, and a selfless friend. He didn’t take life too seriously; his mischievous personality could always brighten the day. He always knew how to comfort anyone in need. His award-winning work led to insights in how the brain works and how it is affected by Alzheimer’s disease. He had a constant desire for learning and a fascination with technology and the intricacies of how everything worked. His brilliance was beyond words.
He was always surrounded by love from his family and friends. His best friend was his sister, Brittany, whom he cherished more than life. They were each other’s greatest supporters and fans. Besides work, his hobbies included rock climbing, video gaming, canyoneering, snowboarding, skiing, and LARP.
He was loving, sweet, honest, caring, and kind. He will forever be remembered with laughter and smiles.
He is survived by his grandparents, father, Jim (Pat); mother, Treasa (Mark); sisters, Brittany and Melissa (Diego); brothers, Cody (Rachel), Zack, Rhett, Chase, Colton, and Justin; uncles, aunts, nephews, nieces, and cousins. He is preceded in death by great-grandparents, step-grandfather, Clausen Bennett; step-grandmother, Carol Rice; and brother, Tyson Rice.
A celebration of his life will be held on Saturday, June 11, 2016 at 2:00 p.m. in the Mountain View Memorial Estates Mortuary and Cemetery Chapel. 3115 East Bengal Boulevard (7800 South), Cottonwood Heights, with a viewing on Friday, June 10, 2016 from 6:00-8:00 p.m. and prior to the services on Saturday at 1:00 p.m.
Interment will follow the celebration on Saturday in the Mountain View Memorial Estates Cemetery.
Following the services, the family would like to invite everyone to continue the celebration at the Roberts’ residence, 4383 Kilby Road, Park City. Light refreshments and snacks will be provided.
