Monty Ulys Jarrett was born May 27, 1957, in Port Arthur, TX to James Ulys Jarrett and Mary Evelyn (Woods) Jarrett. A graduate of Nederland High School, Monty worked in the field of project control serving many companies over the course of his career and currently had worked for Richard Design Services. Feeling a call to preach at eight years old, he was later ordained as a Baptist minister serving first as a pastor at Fellowship Baptist Church in West Orange, then an associate pastor at Twelfth Street Baptist Church. Later, he would become a devout member of Liberty Baptist Church of Bridge City serving in various capacities teaching, preaching, and serving for 25 years. He was a devoted husband and loved his children and family desiring to see them all come to Christ, as he did his community. He also had many opportunities to travel outside of Texas and to other countries to work and spread the gospel. He cherished and adored his 15 grandchildren and being a “Paw.” He loved and made every opportunity to attend their ball games and programs. He enjoyed the outdoors, hunting and fishing. A man of few words, he made his words mean something. Gone too soon, he will be greatly missed by all who knew and love him.
