Mr. and Mrs. Hacker, Melissa, and family, Jeremy was one of the finest young gentlemen I've ever had the honor to teach and coach. His leadership by example made those around him better, and his humble, yet confident demeanor while displaying outstanding skills made him the ultimate student-athlete. I think of his team often, and will miss "The Ice Man" a great deal. My thoughts and wishes are with you.
