He married Kimberly Brown and graduated from the police academy. When their family increased in size with the addition of two daughters, Jamon and Kim decided to change careers from the bicycle beat on the Strip to residential construction in St. George, UT.

Most of his free time was spent supporting the activities and interests of his children. He lived an honest, faithful, and fun filled life. Jamon enjoyed time at the beach, in the mountains, on the lake, and trips to watch March Madness games. He enjoyed spending time and making memories with his family and friends.

Just found out about this tragic loss. Way too young. Jamon was a big guy in stature but his heart was even bigger. Our Elders Quorom President and our home teacher. What a great servant, husband, father and friend. He will be remembered with love. So sorry for this loss.
Jamon, I enjoyed playing basketball with you snd Scott in San Marcos Second Ward. You will be missed. You are a great man.
May God be with your wife and kids everyday.
Kim and family, our heart aches for you. We have such love and respect for you. We are grateful for the exceptional examples you were to our family while we were neighbors. Jamon truly is an example of what we all hope to become. Darren and our boys have great memories of working with Jamon on service projects, young men activities and other activities within the ward. He seemed to always be where help was needed. His positive and willing attitude is infectious and we are all better people for knowing him.
We love you.
The Darren and Reggi Brown Family
