How does one even begin to convey the shock and sadness of the loss of dear ‘Jeremiah’. I knew him for almost 20 years and he was like a little brother to me. Jeremy was a kind hearted, gentle, loving soul. He was a very hard worker and put his all into everything he did. He loved his family very, very much. He made it known to all that his family was his top priority and focal point in his life. Especially his girls…Brooklyn, Cassie, have no doubt that your Daddy loved you with every ounce of his being. God has a plan and purpose for each and every one of us and on Sunday morning, September 24, the Lord called Jeremy home. We experience all kinds of emotions after a loss and the Lord will give us the strength, comfort, and courage to carry on. Condolences and prayers; may the Lord bless you and keep you. ‘Family first’.
Jeremy was a like a father to me when I was a kid he looked out for me so much from the time I was about 7 years old all the way down too when I turned 15 16, when I was a kid Jeremy used to always talk to me when I got mad at my brothers or my parents he was such a good guy and I cannot believe he’s gone he will truly be missed by everyone he touched
If u did not know Jeremy u should have. He was a awesome friend. If u needed someone to talk to he was always there to listen. No matter what u went thru he never turned his back. We lived together for a while and had some awesome times. He had a very big heart . I will never forget the times we had those long rides to work in the morning. I love you Jeremy thanks for being my friend and my shoulder to lean on. My thoughts and prayers are with his family.
I’ll always cherish the memories I have of Jeremy and will never forget him! My heart has not hurt this bad since I lost my mother many years ago. She called Jeremy her Smokey and loved him as if he were her own son. My heart goes out to his family especially his girls! Please let me know if there is anything I can do. ❤ you always my friend!
