Not sure what to say?

So sad to hear of Jamies passing. It seems like a lifetime ago when wed all get up on the tiny stage at The Cove (leaving an audience of about 3 people!) and sing The Weight with Jamie taking the lead. Such a talented man, with a unique and passionate voice.
Wishing peace and love to his family.
From a Cicada Brother.

A beautiful man we grew up in rahway together you will be missed.

Jamie you inspired me and many others, you were a rock when things got crazy. You and your band put yourself out there and showed so many of us that we can be that much better than we are now.
It was a privilege to be one of your multitudes of friends. Even when you were sick you kept of showing everyone with your love. How you did this i will never know. Thank you for being an amazing friend even when we were being naughty, right Rick P. Our love go's to your family and i wish your...

Being a St Marys kid, we had about 60 other kids to spend 8 years with. Thats a long time.... even though its over in a blink. I have many memories of St Marys, and Jamies shaggy head (of course his hair was not as long as Dennis Mesarus (sp)) and rumpled shirt tail floats fondly into my head. He was always sweet, kind, intelligent and a little mischievous. I was happy to hear of Jamies success with his band in later years. Heaven has a new bard. Rest In Peace.

Jamie, for a number of my younger years, was more than my cousin...he was also another big brother. It was Jamie who, in our very early years, helped instill a love of many things in my life. We played countless hours of "Army", baseball and hockey - on streets and lakes, in gyms and basements. He was a sports fanatic who imparted his passion for the NY Mets, NY Rangers and baseball card collecting on to me (I still have all of my cards to this day). I have so many funny memories of our...

You left so many of us with great memories, thank you for being part of my life. I will miss you brother.

My condolences and sympathies go out to the family and your son. We had great times coaching together. You were always there for me asst.

Gunna miss you brother.
