I prayed for all of you....I am so sorry that you have had to endure this tragedy in your life. I want you to know that you are an inspiration to so many. You are going forward....continuing to allow God to work in your life. Your children are blessed to have you as their mother. There is no question in my mind that Jeremy is watching over all of you.

Veronica,. I share your pain. I just recently lost my wife Carolyn of 45 years. Your grief will be a personal journey. One which you must pick your own road to walk alone. You will never get over this loss. However, in time, you will get through this. God is a loving God. Right now you probably do not understand His timing in all of this? It is not meant for us to understand God, just keep looking to Him for strengh. I hurt with you. I meet Jeremy at the last Youth In Action Forum at OCC. Try to imagine what God has in store for Him. And, know with certainty that he is in a beautiful place. Love, Darrell Davis

May God's GRACE be sufficient for you each moment and may you know a deeper sense of His amazing love toward you and your kids during this most tough and difficult time God's blessings to and your family and my deepest sympathy.

Dear Veronica
I am so, so sorry! I am Kara McCullough's mom. She emailed me and told me about the tragic death of your precious husband. When I was in Michigan in September for Owen's birthday I remember thinking how much I enjoyed worship that Sunday I was there when Jeremy led the praise team. My heart goes out to you...
Sweet Jesus, please bless the broken heart of our dear sister Veronica. Help her to feel your precious arms around her as she deals with this great loss in her life and bring her a touch of peace today. Sweet Jesus help Veronica to feel the blessing of this new life growing inside of her and may this baby bring more blessings to her than she could ever think or imagine. I care! I am praying!

There are no words to describe my sadness. My heart goes out to the King family and all those who were close to Jeremy. He was a man I always looked up to and I can only hope that one day I can be half the man, father, husband, and Christian that he was. He will be greatly missed.

November 11, 2010

There are no words that can describe the feelings of deep sorrow when something like this happens. There are no words that can truly comfort you all right now. God alone can bring you through this - with the help of his earthly servants. We pray that in time you will begin to feel that comfort. It will take much time but allow others to help to carry you all through. We want you to know you have been and will be constantly on our minds and in our prayers. Veronica, we really haven't gotten to know you but you and your precious children will be brought before our Father every day. Byron & Arlene & family - we love you and ask the Father to comfort where there seems to be no comfort.
All our love and prayers - Rob, Marilyn & Ken Whitfield

Veronica, I am deeply saddened about this loss. I know what it's like to have your heart ripped out of you but still having to breath because of the baby. I lost my husband back in December '08. Two months before our son was to be born in Feb (much like yourself). I know it may be a year or more before you read these statements on here but, know that you're not alone. God WILL see you through this... He has done (and continues to) so for me and my two (ages 6 and 1 yr old now) and He will do so for you and your little ones. Hugs and prayers for you and your family.
Oh, I have given my contact info to Deanna Jessee Stampfly (we both went to Freed)... Just know that my phone is always on!
In Him,

You have been a light to many. Your voice has touched many souls through the songs you have sang. I love you Jeremy and no one will fill the gap you have left.

Jeremy was an amazingly tender spirit who carried Christ wherever he went. He was our first official "greeter" when we came to live at RC in 2002 and showed us the true meaning of laughter. He has left behind a precious wife and 3 beautiful children and many friends and family who will always miss His physical presence. Veronica
