I'm having a hard time believing this really happened. Four months almost to the day after my daughter's (Nicole) passing. My heart is heavy and goes out to all Jeremy's family and friends during these difficult days. Grief is never easy and may never go away. Be there for each other in comfort. Hold on to those fond memories, write them down, cherish them forever. Blessings to all.

Jerm, I keep catching myself texting asking what you are up to. I cant believe this is actually happening. Over the past few months especially Ive really gotten to know how amazing, kind, and truly selfless of a person you are and understand why Nicole loved you so much. I just cant believe youre both gone. Im really glad that of all the years earth has existed, life managed to find this exact time that we could meet and share with each other. Ill miss hanging out and sharing laughs with you and just miss everything man. Love ya bro.

Jeremy, I keep catching myself texting you to see if you wanna hang out. This has been so hard but I'm glad you aren't suffering anymore. These last few months I've really gotten to know how awesome of a person you are, and I just cant believe you are gone now too. I know you and Nicole are together again in Heaven, because your lights shined so bright in this world. I miss you both so much.

Bobby was a true friend,he loved life. Our little neighborhood would sit on my back porch and talk often. His brother Scott lived in our neighborhood too.We all had great times together that I will always cherish. I am blessed to have known them both. Bobby was the best roommate I could have asked for. He was a hard working man and we would laugh because it looked like he had mascara on when he came home from the foundry. Such good times. I will forever miss you dear friend and always love you. God rest your soul My prayers go out to all of the family

To Bobby's family, sorry for your loss. Jeremiah 29:11, 12 assures us that God is thinking thoughts of peace towards us, to give us a future and a hope, and that if we come and pray to Him, He will listen to us. May that bring you comfort at this difficult time.
