Support Jett Hamann's Family in Their Grief

In Loving Memory of Jett

On October 30th, we tragically lost our beloved son, Jett, who was struck by a train in East Aurora at the age of 19. Our hearts are broken, and we are overwhelmed by grief.

Jett’s life was just beginning. He was not only a son, grandson, brother and nephew, but he was also the closest friend and business partner to his father. Together, they co-founded Aurora Bagels, spending everyday side by side working to grow the business they loved. Jett was a beacon of joy and positivity, greeting everyone with a smile and an open heart. He had a gift for making everyone around him feel loved and valued.

Father and son shared a mission: to bring happiness into the world through delicious food and great service. That spirit will continue to guide us.

In honor of Jett, we are renaming the company and dedicating it to his memory. As we grieve and navigate this difficult time, we are asking for your support. We know Jett would want us to keep moving forward, and we need your help to do so.

If you would like to contribute, we are offering this donation page. When we are ready to reopen, we hope that you will place an order and we will fulfill it with the same care and love that Jett put into everything he did.

Thank you for your love, support, and kindness as we honor Jett’s memory and his lasting impact on all of us.

With gratitude,

Jett’s Family
