Javad Marshall Fields affectionately
known as “Jay” was born to Rhonda Marshall Fields and Marion Lawrence Fields.
Welcoming Javad into the world was his big sister Maisha. Javad attended Cherry
Creek Schools in Aurora, Colorado. He was involved in a variety of school,

impromptu teams for Future Business Leaders of America and received numerous
district and state awards. Javad played on the Varsity Buff Basketball team and
competed for the State championship during his senior year. In May 2001, he
graduated from Smoky Hill High School, Aurora.
Javad was a caring and sensitive young man. Being a little brother he always
looked up to his sister and they confided in each other. He loved his “Grandpa”
and “Grandma.” He always had a brilliant smile, warm hug or a friendly kiss for
everyone. His personality brought people together. Javad was known as a loyal
and dedicated friend, and his friends came in all cultures, beliefs, and
backgrounds. Javad was an active student leader at Colorado State University
and was recognized by the city of Fort Collins and CSU at its first Community
Civility Awards banquet. He accomplished much in his 22 years of life and in
May 2005, Javad successfully graduated from Colorado State University, Fort
Collins, with a Bachelor’s of Arts Degree in Speech Communication and
Rhetorical Theory. He had big plans and a bright future with aspirations of
working as a lobbyist in Washington, DC or working for a Fortune 500 company.
He had planned to continue his education and pursue a law degree.
Javad loved music, people, event planning and the art of communication. He
loved the “spoken word.” He was a Co-Founder, owner, and operator of WAR
Entertainment and became the Prince of the city for organizing and prompting
urban entertainment throughout Metro Denver. While attending Colorado State he
touched the hearts of many. One such friend was Vivian Wolfe. In June 2005,
Javad gave Vivian an engagement ring. They planned to relocate to Virginia;
both were looking forward to starting a wonderful life together with their dogs
“Coco” & “Face.” On June 20, 2005, Javad and Vivian were gunned downed and
