Ah Jamie. You will certainly be missed.

We lived a couple houses down from Jamie on the same block of 10th. We saw him regularly, most often as we were walking our dog(s). Quite rightly, Jamie was far more interested in the dog(s) than he was in us. He always greeted Baxter (RIP) and Rudy (still going strong) with great enthusiasm, and they him. (Well... more so Baxter than Rudy. Bax thought Jamie was great. Rudy is a bit less of a people-pleaser but he still accepted scratches from Jamie.) We'll all miss Jamie's friendly face, ready banter, and stream of opinions on the politics of the day. The block won't be the same without him.

Well Jamie sounds like he was just the one with a ball of sunshine. He also sounded strong enough to not let it get dimmed. People like that are horribly misunderstood, I bet you most people just wished they could be as free spirited as that. Loved his inner child!

I only recently got to know Jamie; my friend moved in across the street and Jamie was the nice neighbor we'd all like to have. He was always ready for a chat, and through those chats, we discovered we were from 2 adjoining neighborhoods in Seattle and had also spent time as kids at the same resort on lake Chelan. I'm sure he will be greatly missed by friends and family; my condolences to you all.
