To the family of Jeremy , I'm a 61 year old man who has heard Jeremy on several occassions at Kirby's and the Gospel saloon with his testimony in music and song and I know , God must have needed him badly in Heaven to have taken such a fine outstanding example of a true christain man from our midst. He will be missed by many but we know there are ones who lives have been touched by him, that would not have normally been, if it hadn't been for him. Hes in Heaven if we ever want to see him again, we best listen to his past testimony of love for God !

To the family of Jeremy:
What a blessing a child at such young age to have the love and sincerity of God in his heart. In his singing I know he touched my heart as well as others. Heaven just gained another angel. May God bless you all.

May God bless you all in the days to come.

Words can't express my feelings of loss and love for you and Nick. Jeremy was so unique in every way and I will never forget him and his sincerity when singing to and for the Lord.
