Dear Jed,
My name is Jed Walz. My parents named me
Jedidiah
because it means "beloved of
God." It was the same name given to King
Solomon
by Nathan the
prophet in the Bible. I have only known one
other
Jed in my life. He
was the exact same age, and he went to my
church.
He moved to Colorado
several years ago.
I was born at St. Louis County Hospital
(Clayton, Missouri)
on August 13, 1985.
I was born on the same date as my
great-grandma
Alice which my mom says would have
made her very happy if she were still alive I
live in
Eureka, Missouri.
Next year I will be a freshman at Eureka High
School.
I play football and baseball.
I may try out for wrestling next year too.
I am always trying to find out about famous
people with
the name Jed. There was a baseball
player on the Kansas City Royals name Jed Hansen
last
year, but he is not on
their roster now. Have you heard of him?
My mom teaches Missouri History, and she says
that their
was a famous mountain man
from Missouri named Jedidiah Smith.
That's about it. Thanks!
Jed Walz
