Jamie, This is the 11th Christmas since you moved on. I'll talk with you later, I've got lots of good stories and some better lies to share.

Jamie, You still come up in conversations, surprisingly quite a bit. Plus I tell my children stories about the "olden days" and you end up in more than a few of them. I'm sad that you're not here, but I understand and appreciate your sacrifice. Thanks.

A true American Hero! What an honor it is to have been his friend.

To the Family of Jamie,
It was only recently I found out about the loss of Jamie. I was shocked and deeply saddened. I can not begin to understand your pain. I pray that God guides and comforts you in this terrible loss.
I first met Jamie (and Greg) at the ALSE course in VA, 1988. We crossed paths many times at various events, airfields and duty stations. In the years of crossing paths, Jamie was always Jamie. He was smart, witty, and just plain fun to be around. I will never forget him. I have thought of him many times over the years and will always have fond memories.
Jamie was a talented and brave warrior.

I want to thank everyone who has submitted a post on CW5 Jamie D. Weeks.
CW5 Weeks is my father-in-law. His oldest daughter and I were married on April 26, 2008.
I am surprised by all of the comments posted to this site. Please know they are all appreciated by myself and the rest of the family.
I now cover the military for the newspaper in Clarksville, TN, and will hopefully be attending when the RFTF reaches Fort Campbell and Clarksville.
To all those participating in the run, we appreciate it. And to all those still in harm's way: Godspeed and God bless.

You are remembered and respected. Thank you Chief Warrant Officer Weeks!

Holding you all in my thoughts and prayers.
The Wind on The Downs
“I like to think of you as brown and tall,
As strong and living as you used to be,
In khaki tunic, Sam Brown belt and all,
And standing there and laughing down at me.
Because they tell me, dear, that you are dead,
Because I can no longer see your face,
You have not died, it is not true, instead
You seek adventure in some other place.
That you are round about me, I believe;
I hear you laughing as you used to do,
Yet loving all the things I think of you;
And knowing you are happy, should I grieve?
You follow and are watchful where I go.”
(Written by Marian Allen during World War l )
Two lines that I wish you to keep near your heart…….
“You seek adventure in some other place.
That you are round about me, I believe”
I did not know Jamie, but I am remembering
his service. He is my hero. !

The Other Side
i'm over on the other side
where life and death softly divide.
left my skin and bones behind
now i'm over on the other side.
can you feel me there with you?
my breath is gone but i'm not through.
loved you then and i still do
from over on the other side.
i can fly. really fly.
below the earth ... all through the sky.
tell em all i did not die.
i'm just over on the other side.
it's good here on the other side.
the sweetest songs...the bluest skies.
thank you for the tears you cried
but it's good here on the other side.
i can fly. really fly. below the earth...all through the sky.
tell em all i did not die.
i'm just over on the other side
the world is smaller than a needle's eye.
where life and death softly divide.
when you leave your skin and bones behind
i'll be waiting on the other side.
i can fly. really fly. below the earth ... all through the sky.
go tell em all i did not die.
i'm just over on the other side.

There is nothing that I can say or do to take away the pain or bring you peace in your time of sorrow, but I will offer your family my heart felt condolences. I also offer you my prayers that in time the pain will easy and the memories of your HERO will carry you through each day and night. I want to thank your HERO, for his/her selfless act of becoming a member of the armed forces, his/her willingness to defend the United States of America, all that we hold sacred and for the sacrifice that will forever be etched in the memories of all those who knew him/her. Though tears can never bring him/her back, we hope that our tears express our gratitude for the sacrifice that he/she made and our sorrow at his/her passing. I believe for every fallen HERO there is a star shining brightly up above to remind us of the precious gift we were given.
Your mission on earth is complete and you are now a member of GOD’s Heavenly armed forces. Stand down brave warrior and take your rightful place in Heaven with all the HEROES who have passed before.
I made a special promise to LE RON A. WILSON (KIA on 07/06/07) on the day he was laid to rest as I touched his coffin, that I would never forget him nor would I forget those that gave their lives for our country before him, with him and after him and so when I came across www.legacy.com, I thought what a great way to keep my promise to Le Ron, so I will continue to leave tributes in each guest book until the day there is no longer the need to leave these tributes to a FALLEN HERO.
REST IN PEACE, HERO, YOU WILL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN!!

there shall be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying,
there shall be no more pain. For the former things have have passed away."

While I never knew Chief Warrant Officer Jamie D. Weeks, I do know his sister and brother-in-law and know that valor, honor and kind heartedness does indeed survive and even flourish in the most difficult of times. My mother, on the passing of my brother, also 47 years old, told me that the hole in my heart that I was feeling was not so much a hole as a portal to the soul that had been openned up as a window and that I had only to look into it to re-live the happiness, joy and life experiences that was my brother. Brenda and Ned, turn to the soul to find both your acceptance but more importantly your inner strength in dealing with this terrible situation. Remeber and weep, then accept and then smile. And also know that though we may not see each other frequently, your family will be in our prayers.

Dear Colonel and Mrs. Weeks, Brenda, Joey, Mrs. Jamie Weeks and Jamie’s Daughters,
I can not imagine the pain that the loss of Jamie has caused each of you.
I stopped by your place in Daleville back in (I think 2000) while on the way to visit my wife’s relatives in Northern Alabama. I actually introduced myself to Col Weeks (who didn’t remember me, or was nice enough to not bring up the fact that I blew up the battery in his truck, and flattened his Cadillac tires while being stupid). I was actually lucky enough to catch Jamie at his folks house, so we spent the next hour standing in the driveway, while his daughters roller skated around us, catching up on our lives. I regret not having met the rest of his family.
The Week’s family took me in after graduating from Shape in 77, and I spent the summer and fall with them. Their patience was immeasurable.
It was an amazing time in my life, and I owe the Weeks’ so much that I’ll never be able to repay. Jamie, Tucker (Tom Perusich) and I had such a fantastic time.
I am so very sorry that this happened. I wish I knew what to do to take the pain away, but I don’t.
If I can help, please ask.
You have my total gratitude,
Craig

I was at SHAPE, Belgium from 1967-1970 so I did not know Jamie personally. But I do know about soldiers and IRAQ. My son spent two tours in IRAQ and each time he was there my heart was in my throat. My condolences to Jamie's family. He has given the ultimate sacrifice for his country. He will live forever in all our hearts and in the hearts of generations to come. He is a hero in all sense of the word.
God bless!!

To the family of CWO Jamie Weeks:
My heart aches as I receive the news of the death of Jamie Weeks, CWO, U.S. Army.
I graduated with the SHAPE Class of 1969, and although I did not get the opportunity to meet this fine, young man, I wish his family to know that he will be surely missed and to especially let them know he was an alum of the strongest alumni association thus far.
His service in the United States Armed Forces is a calling not many Americans can understand nor will they ever understand. It is a call that is received from deep inside, and as a veteran, I salute him.
To his parents, family and loved ones: Gather together and share your grief in the loss of a fine son, brother, husband, and father. Keep his memory strong; not only in your hearts but in your thoughts.
"Jamie, may you Rest in Peace!"

My thoughts and prayers go to the Weeks family for the loss of Jamie. As a 1969 graduate of SHAPE High School and a soldier for 30 years myself, I feel like a part of me knows him -- even though we'd never met.
Please do know that his service to his country was one of the noblest callings an American can follow and speaks volumes for his character. Few Americans can claim such a legacy, but all Americans benefit from the few who do.
Warmest Regards,

Although I was several classes ahead at SHS class of '71, I offer my complete condolences at the passing of Jamie.
My brother Jim who is ten years younger than myself and was only six or seven years old while we were at SHAPE served in Iraq for several months before becoming a chaplain candidate and was commissioned as 2nd LT last year. He, in Iraq served as a chaplain's assistant, essentialialy his body guard and they dodged shrapnel in their tent in Iraq. His chaplain was wounded in the neck and he brougt back a coffee warmer with a hole in it cause by shrapnel which he had on his desk. I am so grateful he survived and grieve for the demise of Jamie and all the soldiers who have sacrificed. Love

Dear Week's Family,
I lived at SHAPE, Belgium in the mid-seventies and was in the same graduating class as Jamie. I also knew his sister Brenda and his brother (now) Lt. Col. Joey Weeks.(I don't know if they'll remember me or not, it's been 30 years.)
I just wanted to convey that my thoughts and prayers are with Jamie's family and loved ones--I'm sure there's no way that I can adequately understand all you folks are going through at this time, but please know that there are many of us who esteem our soldiers--especially those fallen in battle with the highest regard. We grieve with you in your loss and pray the Lord who is able to comfort in the most difficult of situations will be real to you in this time of your loss! May God especially sustain his widow and daughters during this time as well.
We salute CWO5 Jamie Weeks for courageously serving his country with distinction and making the ultimate sacrifice so that the rest of us can continue to live in freedom. May we never lose sight of his sacrifice and heroism! May we continue to pray for our other men and women who bravely wear the uniform as well.
You folks are in our thoughts and prayers.

To the Family of Chief Warrant Officer Jamie D. Weeks:
My heart breaks again as I sign yet another guest book of another courgeous young soldier who gave their life so selflessly. I wish I never found myself in a position to have to sign another guestbook for the rest of my life. We lost a son 12/1/05.
I know first hand there are no words right now that will bring you the comfort and peace you need. Just know that you are not alone. My heart, thoughts, and prayers are with you all as you mourn this loss. We don't know each other, will probably never meet, but will forever be united in the loss of our Heroes. We have, unfortunately joined a group none of us wanted to join, an ever-growing group of families in this situation. May God grant you peace and strength to get through this and be able once again to smile at a memory rather than have only the tears that flow so easily now. To be so proud of your loved one and so saddened at the same time is a mix of emotions very difficult to deal with. I am sorry that I never knew your soldier personally, but none of these courageous men and women will be forgotten. They will never be able to be replaced, but sometime, someday your loving memories will help to sustain you. This courageous soldier will forever now be your Angel watching over you all for the rest of your lives. It's what brings me some measure of peace and comfort and I hope it will you as well. To his family and friends in pain, I offer this comfort. When you find yourself in that dark sorrowful place, think not only of how you will miss him, but instead recall the years, days, hours and minutes gifted to you by his presence. If you ever want to talk, I'm only an e:mail away and would love for you to tell me more about your Hero. God Bless this courageous soldier and family.
