Jeremy passed away on Thursday, September 12, 2019 in Tyler, Texas. He was born in Athens, Texas on March 4, 1997 to Jessie and Melissa Silvey. Jeremy graduated from Brownsboro High School in 2015, where he was a member of the high school band, playing the trumpet. At a very young age, he loved music and would play beats on anything he could find.  Jeremy’s love of music grew from the trumpet to playing guitar and writing his own songs. He was very talented and had dreams of one day making it in the music world. Jeremy loved his family and friends with all his heart. If you knew him, you loved him. He had a heart as big as Texas and never met a stranger. He lit up a room with his infectious smile. He loved the Lord deeply, and was looking forward to the birth of his daughter, Jannah.
