Obituary

Jared Jeffrey DeLine passed away suddenly on November 17, 2023, at the age of 45. Jared was born October 10, 1978, at St. Joseph Mercy Hospital in Superior Township, Michigan, to Judith Lawniczak and Jeffrey DeLine. He graduated from Grand Blanc High School and went on to The University of Michigan.

Jared was a kind, sensitive, and fiercely intelligent soul. He was an excellent cook who shared his love by making elaborate meals for friends and family. Jared's career in hospitality enabled him to share this love with others, first as a bartender and later as a co-owner of a Mexican restaurant in Brooklyn.

Jared also cared deeply about justice and equality. He served his community in Philadelphia as a volunteer and postal carrier. He wanted to adopt every stray, but limited himself to taking excellent care of his three cats.

Jared enjoyed a lifelong love of reading, particularly history, science, and fantasy. He had a brilliant memory and elevated conversations by knowing so much and being so widely read. He was enthusiastic about college sports and politics, and he found joy and comfort in music.


So many are left behind to cherish his memory. He will be greatly missed by his wife Adriana Luciano, parents, and others who have loved him dearly. We will honor Jared at a Celebration of Life Ceremony at the American Legion, 100 W. Dunlap Street, in Northville, Michigan, on Saturday, February 10, 2024, from 3 to 6 pm. Let us all gather together to grieve, comfort, love and support each other in our time of sorrow.
