Jeremy loved the Lord and he loved encouraging people to live the life in which God was calling them to.
Jeremy was very instrumental in encouraging my wife and I to start praying for the city in which we live, like he and his team were doing in Williston. We could see the positive changes taking place as God answered their prayers.
I am very sad that he is gone and at the same time, I am very happy that he is with his wife once again, so the two of them can serve the Lord together in heaven.
Jesus, tell Jeremy how much we miss him and we appreciate everything he did to try and make Williston a better place for all of us to visit and live.

I drove Jeremy home after his last hospital/rehab stay and when I called to check on him to see how he was doing, when he saw my name pop up on his cell, he would always answer "Hello Dear Heart". I will forever miss hearing those words and visiting with him. He was very proud of his family and their accomplishments. God bless all who knew Jeremy and loved him.
