Jamie Rector Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Mar. 5, 2019.
Jamie Rector, age 38, passed away on Sunday March 3, 2019. Jamie was born June 29, 1980 in Lansing, Michigan to Mark and Kathy Hershiser.

Jamie is survived by her husband, James Rector; her sons, Jared Rector and Jonah Rector; her parents; Mark and Kathy Hershiser; her brother, Jason Williams and her dog daughter, JoJo.

Jamie is the best wife, mother and daughter anyone could ask for. She loved her family and her God with all of her heart. She would drop everything to help someone out. There isn't a soul out there that can't say that her smile hasn't touched them in some way. She was a simple girl in the fact that she would rather stop at a hardware store for duck tape then go shoe shopping. She could fix anything with tape or anything she could find. If MacGyver had a twin, it was her. She said she got that gift from her dad. Jamie is and will always be Jim's soul mate. She is the "goof to his ball". True love always.

A visitation for Jamie will be held Thursday, March 7, 2019 from 6:00 pm to 8:00 pm at Williamston Free Methodist Church, 4400 N. Williamston Rd., Williamston, Michigan. A second visitation will take place at the church Friday, March 8, 2019 from 12:00 pm to 2:00 pm, followed by the funeral service. An interment will occur at Dennis Cemetery, Williamston, Michigan.
