AJ Main Photo2

Ayanta Arian Jarmon, 18, of Canal Winchester, OH entered into eternal rest at Grant Medical Center on July 30, 2022 at 4:12 am. AJ, as she was affectionately known, was born on February 26, 2004 in Columbus, OH to Franklin Jarmon of Reynoldsburg, OH and LaShonda Campbell of Sharon, PA.

AJ attended HS2 at Reynoldsburg High School Livingston Campus where early on she had a passion for education in healthcare. She graduated from Reynoldsburg on May 24, 2022 with a 3.0 grade point average. During her time in school, AJ was a well-rounded student. She loved sports and participated in cheerleading and track and field. AJ was also a member of multiple competition cheerleading teams including The Northwest Panthers, and Cheer Athletics in which her membership with the team started at the tender age of 5. She recently joined the work force with her first job after graduation at Hot Chicken Takeover where she was a valued employee.

AJ was set to attend the University of Cincinnati where she planned on majoring in Allied Health and Sciences and Physical Therapy. AJ also had plans on participating in cheerleading for the university.

AJ was loved by many. She shared her meek and fun loving personality with all those that she came in contact with. Whether she was cheering on the field or sharing on social media, she brought a contagious energy along with her that could not be denied. Her personality and smile would illuminate whatever space she was in. Everything about AJ was infectious. She will forever be missed and never forgotten.

AJ was preceded in death by her grandfather Keith Campbell and her uncle Johnny Green.

AJ is survived by her father Franklin Jarmon, her mother, LaShonda Campbell, her grandparents Karen Wilder, Burrell Jarmon, Jeanette and John Hales; her uncles DeVon Campbell and Michael Gillespie both of Sharon, PA, Joshua (Monica) Jarmon and Daniel Jarmon both of Columbus, OH, her God Parents RaShawn and Taneeka Sykes of Pickerington, OH and a host of other family members, friends, teammates, classmates and loved ones.

Dear Shonda and Frank,

Ayanta has been a household name in our home since junior high school! She is in every homecoming picture with Dalis since the 9th grade, multiple cheerleading pictures with her, and various videos of them goofing off and just having fun.

We are so sorry for your profound loss. Our hearts go out to you and we are praying for God’s strength and comfort now and days ahead.

Thinking of you both,
Holley, Dalis, and Quinn

There are no words that will ease your pain but please know she represented your family well even when you weren’t around. I was honored to be her teacher at RHS.

I will always cherish her smile and seeing joy while her mom & dad walked with AJ on senior night. Asking God to somehow comfort you today and always.

I want to start off my giving my condolence to Miss.Campbell and Mr.Harmon I’m sorry for your lost. This pains me to even be writing this I knew A’yanta since kiddie academy days one of my first friends when I moved here. I couldn’t imagine how you are are feeling like as a mom and dad I’m sooo sorry for this lost. A’yanta was definitely a character she would always make you laugh or smile for something so little and always encourage me to do better for myself. Her legacy will forever live on in me and with me.
My prayers go out you you guys and anybody else who is experiencing the pain of losing someone so close to our hearts

2 Corinthians 5:1,6-8
1. For we know that if our earthly house, this tent, is destroyed, we have a building from God, a house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens.
6. So we are always confident, knowing that while we are at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord.
8. We are confident, yes, well pleased rather to be absent from the body and to be present with the Lord.

Lashonda and Frank losing a child is a traumatic event for parents, and finding the right words to say are not easy. It is an unimaginable occurrence, so finding the proper condolences for this particular loss is a challenge. There are no words that can mend the broken heart of bereaved parents. My heart breaks for you and your family during this time. I am extending my deepest sympathy to you during this time and my prayers and blessings are with you. No amount of words can express the pain that you are going through. I am sending you love and hope you are able to find strength during this dark time.”

I am so sorry for the loss. When I think about it, my stomach churns as I can imagine it is worse for family. I don’t have much words, as I know grieving is different for everybody and it is a journey. But I wish so much healing, happiness, and light to the family of Ayanta. Please always remember she is here in spirit and her smile is always engraved in memory.

Love you forever <3 Prayers for your friends and family.

Condolence from LaMeika on August 10th, 2022 2:22 pm

AJ,

You will be missed so much.

To LaShonda, Frank, family, and friends, I will continue to pray daily for strength through this time and always.

Condolence from Darla Kelso on August 10th, 2022 7:06 pm

Shonda, you don’t know me but I’m Ashlee Kelso’s mom, Darla, (Jordynn’s grandmother). To say that my heart hurts for you and the rest of your family is an understatement. I couldn’t attend AJ’s home-going service with them today but I did watch via livestream. What a beautiful service for a beautiful, sweet, young lady. I’ve heard a lot about AJ from Jordynn and Ashlee, and it’s evident that she was very loved and a joy to be around. I didn’t get to formally meet her but have seen her at the cheer competitions she and Jordynn were a part of.

I am so very sorry for your tremendous loss. I wish I could hug the pain away…if any one of us could, we most definitely would be holding you tightly in our arms right now. But we can cover you in prayer, and so we shall.

As you continue to walk through this unimaginable grief, I pray that you’ll find some level of peace and comfort from all the beautiful memories you have of AJ. It will take time, and you be sure to take all the time you need. Grieve your way, not anyone else’s. Our loving God would never cause you this type of pain (any pain), but He is there to walk with you through it. Stay close to Him.

Blessings,

Darla Kelso

Condolence from Tammie Moore on August 10th, 2022 8:19 pm
