Jamison was President of American Big Rig Racing. He drove the #20 Freightliner in the series and was known as “DK,” the drift king. He worked hard and was always willing to help and give to people in the community. Jamison lived life to the fullest and loved wholeheartedly, especially his family. He and his wife proudly owned and operated three businesses they built themselves: A 1st Choice Well Service, Appalachian Dumpster & Demo, and Appalachian Well Drilling.

Jamison was devoted to his Lord and was a member of Leicester Baptist Church. He was very well loved throughout Western North Carolina and will be deeply missed, but we rejoice knowing that he is now experiencing Heaven.
