I lost touch when my letters were returned. I had no idea my true friend had passes until today when I , once again, searched for him.
He was one of the nicest, funnest friend I knew.
I do not know how he passes but yesterday I found several photos of us in Myrtle beach and on bike runs...
Watching the news of this hurricane caused me to try to reach out, just to see that he has been gone for many years now.
I'm sad.
I'll miss the friend I knew in him..

Jaime, My Brother! I miss you. Please forgive me for not staying in touch. The last time I saw you was when you were building your new house in that field. We worked together and had fun together too. I knew you at McElveen in Summerville during the 1996-2000 time frame. I hope to see you in eternity my brother.

To Jaime's family, He was a one of a kind, great guy! Please just know that he will be greatly missed! I learned a lot from him over the years at the auctions. Mainly Statesville, Darlington, & sometimes Greensboro. I live near Raleigh and frequented the same auctions that Jaime did. A group of us for many years, after a long day buying cars, would go out to eat dinner together, as we all stayed in the same hotel. A lot of times, it was just Jaime & I. He always talked about his family, and...

Sorry this is so late but Jaime has been buying cars for us for years up here in MN. I never was able to actually meet him but he came with high recommendations and lived up to them. 100% trustworthy, hard working and just a great guy to talk to every week. He will be missed by all of us up north and, from talking to the auction, all of them at Statesville, too. As he always said "You don't never know". God Bless to all family and friends.
