Christmas carolers gathered just before Christmas to help a young Shelbyville man to enjoy the season.

Even as he was dying from brain cancer.

The night of caroling on Dec. 22 came just in time. Jared (Bob) Magner, 21, passed away just after Christmas on Dec. 27.

Services were held over the weekend at Freeman Family Funeral Homes.

Memorial contributions may be made to Freeman Family Funeral Homes and Crematory, 819 S. Harrison St. in Shelbyville. Contributions can also be made to the Go Fund Me page operated by his Bob's mother, Jennifer Moore.  Funds will be used to help pay for funeral services.
