I am so sorry for your loss. He was the sweetest guy I knew. When I was upset he would always try to make me smile. I'm going to miss him a whole bunch! I love him so much and really wish he was still here with us. I LOVE YOU JEREMY! You and your family will always be in my heart and prayers.



Love always,

Jamie

To the family of Jeremy Gray, I used to coach Jeremy at St. Stephens when he was around 10-11 years old and I currently coach his cousin Donisha Richardson. I just want to say that I am praying for your family and the youth in this city. May Jeremy's death not be in vain. GOD bless the children.

Dear Ms. Gray,

I have been out of town, and found out today about Jeremy. I can remember the first day he walked into my classroom. I was so proud to watch him graduate. He kept me on my toes. He had the most beautiful smile. That is what I'll remeber. There are no words to describe your loss. Just know that I'll keep you and your loved ones in my prayers. May God hold all of you gently in his hands. With much love, Ms. Vivian Johnson

Events like this really do make me question why bad things happen to good people. I was a classmate of Jeremy's and I never seen him without that big silly smile on his face. I'm sure I don't stand alone when saying that he was the one to make your day better. Jeremy is truly missed and his family is in my prayers. God Bless.

I DON'T WANT TO SAY GOODBYE BECAUSE THAT MEANS THAT I HAVE TO REALIZE THE FACT THAT I WILL NEVER SEE HIM AGAIN AND THAT MEANS NO MORE SMILES AND NO MORE JOKES AND NO MORE HUGS AND KISSES THAT MEAN THAT THE PHONE WILL RING AND I KNOW THAT IT WONT BE HIM CALLING TO MAKE SURE THAT I AM BEING GOOD. I CANT PLAY LIKE I AM HAPPY BECAUSE I KNOW THAT IT WILL BE A LONG TIME BEFORE I WILL BE HAPPY AGAIN BECAUSE I LOST ONE OF THE BEST PEOPLE THAT I KNOW AND I CANT ACT LIKE I AM NOT MAD BECAUSE I CANT SEE WHY THIS WOULD HAPPEN TO A GOOD PERSON LIKE THIS AND I AM ONE OF THE MANY PEOPLE THAT ASK WHY WHY WHY. JEREMY WAS THE FIRST OF 3 FRIENDS THAT I HAVE LOST IN A 2 WEEK PERIOD AND IT MAKING QUESTION ALL THE THINGS THAT I KNOW LIKE THAT GOOD THINGS HAPPEN TO GOOD PEOPLE BECAUSE HE WAS THE BEST PERSON AND THE WORST THING HAPPEND TO HIM.BUT I HAVE TO BE STRONG AND KEEP CRYING BECAUSE IT HURTS SO MUCH TO SAY GOODBYE.

JEREMY YOU WAS ALWAYS THERE FOR ME TO HELP ME THROUGH WHATEVER AND IT HURTS ME BECAUSE I WASN'T THERE TO HELP YOU AND NOMATTER WHAT I WON'T LET NO ONE FORGET YOU BECAUSE I KNOW THAT I WONT JEREMY I LOVE YOU MORE THAN WORDS CAN SAY LOVE ALWAYS SASHA G AKA BUBBLES

It's so hard to believe that Jeremy is gone. I send my regrets to the family and I really wish that I could have got to spend more time with Jeremy. I just hope that the family and you best friend forever Tony are doing alright. Jeremy is in a better place now that everyone will someday visit. I'll always remember that you love Lil' Debbie cakes and orange pop.

Ms. Gray:



I am so sorry for all the pain you are feeling. Jeremy was a very special child and his contagious smile would brighten a room.



I am very glad that I had the opportunity to get to know Jeremy and to have Jeremy as a student.



May God grant you the strength you need to guide you through the days ahead.



God Bless You

I am so sorry for the loss of Jeremy. I was a classmate and we also graduated together. He always made me smile. I will miss and remember him every day. He was honestly a really bright kid. When I heard about his passing it hurt my heart really bad. I could only imagine how you feel. I prayed to god and asked if he would take care of him for me, and I know in my heart that jeremy is in a better place. To jeremy: you were a great guy and you will always be in my heart.(I told you that you were going to graduate boy) I LOVE YA! -Destiny
