Honoring the Life of Jarrett Marshall Goss

It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of Jarrett Marshall Goss on August 31st, at the age of 33. His departure has left an irreplaceable void in the hearts of all who knew him. In lieu of flowers, please consider making a donation to this fundraiser.

Jarrett was diagnosed with ALK+ lung cancer, a rare and genetic form of the disease that affects non-smokers, in March of 2023. Throughout his journey, Jarrett faced every challenge with remarkable courage and grace. His wife, Kylie, his loving parents, Galyn and James, and his entire family and circle of friends are deeply proud of the strength he displayed during his battle with this relentless illness.

Jarrett was admitted to the hospital in early July, with expectations that his stay would be temporary and that more treatment options were available. Unfortunately, after more than 60 days in the hospital and despite all efforts, it became clear in the last week of his life that the disease had progressed beyond the point of return.

Just two days before his passing, Jarrett and Kylie, his beloved partner of 9 years, were able to have a beautiful wedding ceremony in his ICU room, surrounded by their family and closest friends. In the early hours of August 31st, Jarrett passed away peacefully, with his loved ones by his side.

During his hospital stays, Jarrett was surrounded by the people who mattered most to him. Galyn, James, and Kylie were his biggest advocates, tirelessly ensuring he received the best possible care. His sisters, Jordan and Jayci, were always by his side, supporting both Jarrett and their parents. His closest friends and bandmates, Amanda and Justin visited frequently and enabled him to continue doing what he loved most, working on music, from his hospital bed.

Kylie and Jarrett have been living together for the past 6 years. Due to these tragic circumstances, Kylie is now facing the sole financial burden of rent and living expenses. The funds raised through this campaign will go toward cremation, memorial expenses, medical bills, and financial support for Kylie during this incredibly difficult time.

Every donation, no matter the size, will make a significant difference in supporting Jarrett's wife and family during this time of need. Please consider sharing this campaign with your friends and family to help us reach as many people as possible.

Let us come together to honor Jarrett’s memory by offering our love and support to his loved ones.

Thank you for your kindness and generosity.
