Steve, Patty, and Ashley;
There are no words to properly express the pain and sorrow you must be going through. Steve, when we spoke less than 2 weeks ago about our respective families, your face lit up when discussing Jeremy and the joy he brings you and your family. My family and I are keeping all of you in our thoughts & prayers.

Patty and Family--Jeremy was such a ray of sunshine to everyone at the high school. His smiles and "Hi!"s made students and staff alike smile in return. Jeremy would often come into my classes to visit and learn a little US History (mostly to talk though). I will miss him at my office door with his hand out for me to walk him to his bus in the afternoons. May all the wonderful memories of your beautiful young man comfort you during this time. God Bless you--Christina Falbo

Jeremy will be dearly missed. Jeremy and Bryce have been buddies since the first grade. They shared so many laughs and smiles as well as fondness of the Buffalo Bills and Springdale Farm. Jeremy's love of the book Green Eggs and Ham was evident back in grade school when he brought it in often to share with the class. The book has been a favorite in our home ever since as well. Jeremy is thought of with each and every reading.
Our prayers and caring thoughts are with Jeremy's family and all touched by his life and sweet spirit.
