Lynna,

I can honestly say Jeremy had a bigger impact on me than I think even he realized. I will always remember fondly our days in Mr. Cioffi's English class.

My heart is with you and the children (and grandchildren) and he was taken far too soon. I know he's smiling on all of you and will watch and protect you.

(I always thought it was Lynnae)
