Hey. Just missing you. We have too many dogs again, and a cat who you would have already thrown in the lake to teach her a lesson. Sadly, I know she could float, probably swim, too. I hope things are amazing where you are. Xo

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.
Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."
It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man."
God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.
When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.
I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.
There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.
If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.
So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.
And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.

Oh Jeremy! How you, Mary and I roared when we got back from Zorba's and found Elvis. That is the happiest memory. Although dancing on the pontoon to Big Willie was a blast! Boy how we miss you and all the fun. Love you. XOXO

Hello Jeremy, it's me... Juuuuulie. I've thought about you so much lately. My mom shipped me 20 Monster Cookies for Christmas. That would have lasted you about two days, right? I have lost touch with your family, Dean, Rob and Steve... I miss them all and the fun we used to have. I was just telling someone about the Beaver. Somehow being called a Beaver Dresser is not half as funny without you here. I know you are still an angel watching over us.

Hey Jeremy
Just wanted to say hi. You know i think about you every day. I still think about the conversation we had at my house just before you left. It feels like it was yesterday. I havent laughed that loud since that day. Capone is 3 years old now and 100 pounds and looks just like sherman. We all miss you very much! I will make a toast tonight so make sure your looking down upon us. : )

hey jerm, how are you (i know how much it drove you crazy when i asked that - still makes me laugh). i cant believe its been 3 years. i think about you every day. i still pick up the phone to call you. i dont see your friends and family very often but think of them all the time. so many wonderful memories. i miss so many of those things. i think you would be ok with my life now. it has changed a lot but i think you would approve. its hard not to have your opinion on everything though. (believe it or not i actually miss that!) i do ask myself what you would think about things though. and i have dean. dean has been great. he is always there for me when i need him. we all miss you tons. i know everyone still thinks about you all the time and always has a good "luciow" story to tell when they are together. thanks for always reminding us to have a good time and not take life too seriously. i think everyone remembers that a little bit more now. give bo bo a big hug and kiss for me. love ya and miss ya tons. t

Dearest Jeremy: I cannot tell you how much I miss you! It's your mom's birthday. Can you give her a big hug for me? It sure is hard without the two of you...too many sad anniversaries. But, I realize how lucky we were to have you for 30 years. You are and always will be our sunshine. Love you. XOXO Your Godmother, Michelle

I'm thinking of you so much today Jeremy. I still have to stop myself sometimes from picking up the phone to call you. I can hear your voice saying my name and acting silly. It just isn't the same up north without you. The beaver looks so lonely. I still see you in so many things around me. I moved to Tampa, Florida. I know that you would be visiting me in the warm weather about this time of year. My grandma recently joined you in heaven. I hope you will take care of her and watch over her like I know you watch over me down here. I miss you.

Happy Birthday Jeremy!
I miss you so much, man. You are still so fresh and real in my mind and it's always so unreal to realize that you're not with us anymore.
My family and I live on a lake now and I find myself thinking of you so often - - it's bittersweet, y'know what I mean...
I hope you are at peace "up there" with yourself, with your mom, with Babunya and Johanna and everyone else and also with all of us down here.
Keep shakin' it!!
Love ya, man.

Jer,
Sherman and I are here, rubbing noses and touching cheeks, and we wanted to write you. He has grown into a 105 pound black fur mass of love and innocence. He has a strong affinity for passing bicycles and cars, but will stick around for a good pat. Most days,there is little he would rather do than flip over and show his bare belly for a rub.
He is my "perfect boy" and it's clear that he misses you. Ears have perked again and again at what seem to be your possible return, but something in his heart is warm to the fact that he is now home.
With Sherman as the living part of your legacy, I am so grateful for him everyday. We have grown to love him so so much since the first time the palm sized puppy entered the door, and the love only grows in your absence. I love you so much, I miss you.
Love,
Anelia

Dear Brother,
I love you and miss you so much, life is much too silent without you and Mom here. Amanda prays for you
and Grandma every night..she reads her poem that Grandma Cheryl wrote for her each night at bedtime, she could probably recite it without looking at it by now. I have you in my heart and I am given comfort that you and Mom are now with your heavenly father.
Love you....See you later
My faith is the only light in this darkness.

Dear Jeremy: For some reason I miss you so much today. I am crying because I want you here. Your earthly presence is a great loss to your family and friends. I heard "I Hope You Dance" today and take that as a sign that you are still with us in spirit. I love you. Hug your mom for me. Tell her we miss her too. XOXO always. Michelle

Dream a Dream.
When the night is still, And the sea is calm,
Lonely shadow, You call upon me.
Lay by my side, Fear not tonight,
Lonely shadow, You'll find a new light.
Dream a dream, And see through angels's eyes, A place where we can fly away.
Ride with me upon a shining star, Above the moonlit sky, We will find Elysium.
Hear the nightingale, Sing a lullaby, Lonely shadow, You'll find a new light.
Dawn will be kind, All will be bright, Lonely shadow, Rise from the darkness.
Dream a dream, by Charlotte Church...A song befitting the loves of our lives, Cheryl and Jeremy.
Love you always. Until Elysium... Michelle

Happy Birthday Jeremy. It seems like just yesterday we were all celebrating your 30th birthday. I miss you so much. I hope you can hear me because I talk to you so often. You have been my guardian angel since you went to heaven and I just want you to know how much that means to me. I have your pictures hanging at my desk and I am working on making copies of the Beaver Book for all of the girls. Don't worry, I won't let anyone put a grilled cheese sandwhich on them like Rob did! This summer it was just not the same without you up north. My mom thinks of you every time she bakes fresh Monster cookies. Us girls spent some time with Dean and Rob at Breezy. We had a great time and it was so comforting to be with them and talk about all the funny things we did with you. There are so many things that I miss, but most of all I just wish I could hear your voice. I still hear you from time to time... but it's so hard not having you to turn to for advice. I try to do my best and live each moment of my life to the fullest just like you did. I miss you. Happy Birthday Jeremy.

Happy Birthday Jeremy...today I left you and Mom this poem so all that come to visit you today can read it.
Love Becky
WHEN LIFE TAKES WHAT MATTERS
I pushed against the pain
The terrible sadness
The dreaded depair
I said
"This is no way to live
Life is too short.
To be victorious
I will rise above the pain."
But loss said
"This is no way to live
Life is too short
To pretend it doesn't hurt.
To be victorious,
Go through the pain
Toward the promise."
This Christmas we have put up a "memory tree." All the decorations and ornaments will be things that remind us Grandma Cheryl and Uncle Jeremy. If you have anything in mind for this tree, we would be very thankful to have it. We wll put the tree up each year. Thank you.

Happy Birthday Big Brother,
You're here looking at me in the pictures around my desk, they make me feel closer to you. And as this year is coming to an end,in some ways I'm exactly where I was on the morning of January 6th. In other ways,I'm developing of a person away from the comforts of home. But the constant reminder of you not being here isn't fading as time goes on. I miss you so much, and think about you all the time. Talking to Sherman, seeing the snow fall for the first time this year, and seeing you in Nick's spirit..they are painful reminders, but they are keeping you with me every day. I wish I could change everything, and have you back, if only for a moment, but I have to work hard to keep you with me, beside me, in the framed picture on my desk, behind me when I face a challenge, and inside me when my heart grows heavy. I promise to work hard, I know you wouldn't want me so upset over everything, but since winter has shown its first signs, everything around me gives some memory of you. It's hard, Dad thinks about you a lot. I worry about him so much, he thinks about you all the time, and I hope he's talking to you, because he keeps it inside so much. My mom misses you so, we both want Dad to grieve. Nick wants his soccer coach back, but more importantly, his role model. I still want to see your saturated painting shoes beside the closet door in the foyer, and almost swear I see them in some quick glances. Even if your rumbling voice can't resonate in the house, the door is open, and I know you have come through it to be with us. I love you.

Thanks to all who loved Jeremy and to the thoughtful person who has kept his Legacy on line. We miss Jeremy and think of him everyday. Now he has his loving mother by his side. Rest in peace, Cheryl and Jeremy. Until we meet again. We love you both so much...more than words can express. XOXO

Guess it's time for me to sign this. I have read everyone's comments so many times, I feel like I know your friends sympathy letters by heart. Here I am in college now, I can't believe it, I bet you can't either. I really want to make you proud, mom, dad and nick too.. Shermi is doing really well, kind of a pain sometime, but I think it's fitting..just kidding. I'm working hard and will continue to do so. Don't worry, I'm staying out of trouble and studying lots. Dean called me the other day and asked me how I was doing here. That meant so much, you two chose each other so wisely, he has stepped in as the older brother in my life absolutely flawlessly.
I miss you so much, everyday I think about what it would be like if you were still here, where you are now, if you see your mom, if people can still hold each other in heaven. I hope so, and even though I won't be able to hold you for a long time, I'm going to be just as anxious for your arms around me when that day comes as I am today. I love you so much, I miss you even more. I love you, I love you, I love you.
Love,
Your little sister..neelie bird

Its been almost five months sense jeremy has left us and it seems like only yesterday he was here with us. Not a day goes bye that I don't think of luey, sometimes I find myself day dreaming while driving down the road at work thinking that he's going to call or I'm going to see him tonight at robs or up north. All I really know though is luey was a great friend ,someone who could always make me laugh a person that would help his friends and talk to anybody it didn't matter who it was. I was with luey the last days of his life here on earth I don't know why it was me because it should have been dean,steve or rob that should have been there with him but I feel lucky that I was there with luey he was so at peace the last time I seen him. we wher standing outside the motel in mich. b.s. and talking about anything that came to mind. I remember him saying dean was a stud at scsu (yeah wright I said dean ) then he asked how I liked having a family luey always cared about his friends when others couldn't care less. We'll miss you jeremy!!!!!!

I'm going to the beach today and I'm gonna have a keylime martini, cause i think you single handedly tried to drink them all last time you were here..haha. Jeremey. I am going to miss the times with you, but I have such great memories of the times we had together. Hey, remember the time that you and I went with you and your dad and we drove to the dakotas to get fire works, then we had a roman candle fight and your fort caught on fire (man I hope you parents don't read this)then we blew off the rest that night. Well Jerem, you and I know that we have lots of unsolved mysteries that nobody knows about but us, don't worry I won't tell. Hey, while your up there don't bug the G-MAN too much about it..HE KNOWS WHEN HAPPY HOUR IS...(if you haven't figured it out yet, its anytime you want it to be)I'm gonna miss you, but I do have the 31yrs..ok,ok 28 yrs of lasting memories of us together to last me the rest of my life, save me a seat on the boat and I don't know when, but I'll see you soon.

Hello God
This is your loyal servant Renee J Belair. My beloved nephew Jeremy Luciow is with you now and I need to speak with him.
Hi Jerm!
Well how are you? I guess you will not be flying down to Florida to see your cousin Aaron and me this year. You already are in Paradise!
It is almost one month since you left us and it is still hard to believe. You had so many relatives and friends and they all came to say goodby on January 12th. Did you see us?
Hey what ever happened to that alligator head you purchased on one of your visits to Miami?
So many good memories and I am glad we had them Jeremy.
How I wish you had e mail in Heaven.
Now there is something you can
work on for your loving Aunt Renee.
Hello to Grandma Luciow and Babunya. Please look for my brother Georgie. He has been there a long time and will take good care of you.
Until we meet again,
Aunt Renee

I remember when Jeremy wanted to play me in basketball. He thought he was going to beat me. Even though he was a giant to me, I wanted to play him. I was winning for a while, then he came back and beat me. He was really fun. This is one of my best memories.

I remember when Jeremy and I went out for dinner with Grandma Belair. We all pooled our money together to buy some pull tabs. Jeremy brought back a winner, which Grandma Evelyn opened. She was so excited to win. Jeremy and I looked at each other and waited for our cut. We never saw it, Grandma put it in her purse. We laughed and Jeremy never said a word. What a kind, thoughtful guy
Grandma Evelyn Belair

One of my favorite memories of Jeremy is when our family went out for dinner. Jeremy went to get some pull tabs. I had bought ten dollars worth and Jeremy came back with a winner for me. I think it was 128.00 dollars. He was so kind and thoughtful

Jeremy was the kind of guy that you instantly liked. He was a very genuine guy who always had a way of making any occasion a great time. I am very glad that I had the opportunity to get to know him…his smile, his generosity, his sense of humor and his way of always making the times with him a lot of fun! He is someone that I will always remember! I miss you Jeremy!!!
To the family, I am so very sorry for your loss and hope that all the wonderful memories of Jeremy help you make it through each day.

Sweet Jeremy,
So darn sad when someone so darn wonderful & generous had to go so damn early. I guees God needed someone to make HIM laugh. Though life, while we are here on earth will seem so lonely without his vibrant body around to fill that void, find some comfort knowing we'll see him in heaven before you know it. Try hard to find the strength & joy in the darkest hours. Jeremy was truly thee BEST friend. If only we could all emulate his joy. I'm sorry to not have attended his going away party, as I just brought a little one into the world, Jack Andy. I hope to teach him to love everyone & life much like Jeremy Laugh a Lot Luciow did. With love & sympathy to his friends & family,

Jeremy- we will both sorely miss your smile and laugh, the twinkle in your eyes, your fun-loving spirit and your friendship. We have had so many great times and we feel blessed to have recently spent a lot of time with you. We will cherish all the memories. Since that day in fourth grade for me and sixth grade for Jim - you have touched our lives more than words can express. You are an inspiration to all those who have known you. I will especially miss all the different facial expressions you would make - they were one-of-kind! Thanks for the slow dance. And thank you, Jeremy, for being in our lives! We love you and miss you dearly!!
To all of Jeremy's family and friends - our thoughts and prayers are with you at this time of deep sadness. As we all know - Jeremy lived every moment to the fullest! In his memory - let us do the same! God Bless!

Jeremy, I didn't know you very well, and wish that I did. I remember having a huge crush on you in the eigth grade after managing Mr. Ollenketo's basketball team. I have continued to hear very funny stories through Kristy and will miss those tall tales. I'm sorry that I didn't know you better...
We know that you're smiling that beautiful smile and in doing so are making God smile too. Say Hi to Dawn for me...

Jeremy was a very special person. I had the honor of being his "girlfriend" for four years. I loved him very much and will cherish the memories we had together. Jeremy is the only former boyfriend that remained a good friend of to me - that goes to show what a wonderful person he was. Everytime I think of Jeremy I get a big smile on my face, as I am sure many other people do. My thoughts and prayers are with Jeremy's family and friends. May you rest in peace, Jeremy. I will see you again someday. Love, Heather

I'll always remember Jeremy and the great times we had. Keith and Mike are right about Jeremy being inclusive and loyal, regardless of what others thought. When I was picked on in seventh grade for my crazy hair and odd clothes (this was my "punk" phase), Jeremy was still my friend. In fact, he was one of the (three) boys at my 13th birthday party. We always went to same football games and parties, and I remember giving Jeremy lots of rides in my car (and sometimes he got tired of waiting for me and drove it himself). I was always laughing when I was with Jeremy. He was kind (rescuing stray animals wherever he went) and the epitome of a really great guy. I haven't seen him in several years, but I assumed we'd meet up again someday and continue our friendship where we left off. I've missed that chance, and I'm sorry. Go in peace and love, Jeremy.

Jeremy,
You have touched the lives of many people, including myself. You have been a wonderful, kind, generous, loving friend/cousin/roomate to Steve and I will never forget how you have been there for him in the last few months. You are truly a special person and I will miss you greatly. Thank you for all the wonderful memories up at the cabin. The kids will remember you with a smile on their faces........May you rest in peace.

Jeremy was truly the most well liked person I have ever had the privilege of knowing – and deservingly so. I will remember Jeremy for his generosity, charisma, and infectious smile guarantied to light up any room. Being in his presence was always special. He was a lover of life and indeed lived life to the fullest! He has touched so many lives in so little time; his life is an inspiration and serves as a compass for us all. My deepest sympathy to his family and all the people who loved him so. Without a doubt, Jeremy will be sorely missed but his spirit will live forever. Jeremy B. Luciow – while alive, he lived.

There are not enough words to express the sorrow I feel for the loss of my beautiful brother. I was so lucky to have him. Thank you for the support you all are giving to me and to my family. The thoughts and memories you share are all we have. Please continue..And when you hear the song "I hope you Dance" Think of Jeremy, he always chose to dance.
XOXO Becky (Jeremy's Sister)

To Jeremy:
I will miss you a great deal my friend. Your love for life has touched an endless number of people, and you are an inspiration to us all. My prayers and sympathy are with your family and friends, you will never be forgotten. Thanks for the time we spent together in junior and senior high, there was never a dull moment. Forgive me for not attending your funeral, but God has a way of taking a life, while creating a new one in this world at the same time. Kimberly is delivering a baby girl tomorrow. We will do our best as parents to raise her to have the same enthusiasm for life, and to touch friends the way you have. Her name is Abigail, and she will always hold a special place in my heart knowing she was given to us, while at the same time, God took you home.
Love you like a brother,

I knew Jeremy in high school, he was in a few of my classes but I never spoke to him. He was a class clown in one of my classes. I knew he was a very caring person you could just see that in him. He's in peace with the big man above and im sure he'll be looking down at all of his friends as the years go. God Bless his family and he rest in peace.

I will never forget the day, 5 years ago, that I met Jeremy up on Gull Lake. It was one of the craziest times in my life, which led to a great friendship and to some of the best summers I can remember. As so many others have said, Jeremy knew how to live life to the fullest! You couldn’t help but feel and be drawn in by the energy and enthusiasm he had for life. And he cared so much about the people around him, even those he didn’t know well.
Jeremy, I am so glad you came to visit me in NY in November. Never in a million years would I have thought that it would be the last time I would see you, but I am so fortunate that I did.
Up North and Beaver Point will never be the same. But every time I come around the point and see that damn Beaver, it will bring a smile to my face and remind me of how lucky I was to have you as a friend…and of all the great memories. I will miss you.

The last paragraph of Edward A. Guest's poem, "To All Parents" states:
I fancied that I heard them say, "Dear Lord, Thy will be done."
For all the joy Thy child shall bring, the risk of grief we'll run.
We'll shelter him with tenderness, we'll love him while we may
And for the happiness we've known forever grateful stay;
But shall the angels call for him much sooner than we've planned,
We'll brave the bitter grief that comes and try to understand."
My thoughts and prayers are with all of Jeremy's loved ones at this difficult time.

To Jeremy's friends and family,
I met Jeremy almost three years ago but I feel like we have been friends for my entire life. He had a way about him that just draws people to him. I am proud to say that I was one of the Beaver Dressers during the summer of 1999. If I had a quarter for every time I heard the phrase "Who's dressing my Beaver?!?" I wouldn't have to work for the rest of my life. I feel so lucky to have had him in my life even for such a short time. We are going to miss him terribly.

For so many friends and family, Jeremy was a harbor of strength and love. He would unselfishly help others, stand tall in the face of adversity and always make those around him feel welcome and at ease.
I feel an unexplainable void knowing Jeremy is no longer with us. His life touched many people, and he will be dearly missed by all - whether you met him a handful of times or whether you spent your life growing up with him.
Although this great loss will reverberate for years to come, I feel we must all continue to celebrate Jeremy’s life and take joy from the many wonderful memories we have.
Rest in Peace, Jeremy. I will never forget you.

Jeremy was one of those incredible people that makes me feel fortunate just to have known him and called him a friend. He lived more in his thirty one short years than most of us in a lifetime. He could say and do things in a way that was only Jeremy, and that only Jeremy could say or do. Many of us lived vicariously through him. As others have mentioned, Jeremy never excluded or judged. It didn't matter who you were or where you came from, he let you in and made you feel at home. If a measure of a man's worth is how many friends you have, Jeremy was a wealthy man.
My condolences to the family and friends of Jeremy B. Luciow. I will miss you and never forget you Jeremy. Peace!

Jeremy
Beaver Point will never be the same without you. Please be an angel watching over us. The summer of 1999 lives in my memory as one of the best. We(the Beaver Point girls) had so much fun scheming and planning costumes for the Beaver. The only thing better than scheming was seeing your reaction and anticipation. You are an inspiration to me to live life to the fullest. I saw in you a raw happiness. A happiness not only in you but in others around you. Thanks for being a friend.

Sympathies to you all from Saudi Arabia. We had the pleasure of spending Labor Day weekend (98) with Jeremy and Tia up at the lake. He was a charming host, nothing was too much trouble - always smiling!
We're extremely sorry to hear of your loss, and pray that God will give you the strength and courage you will need.

Jeremy --
When Dan first introduced us that night on the floating living room on Gull -- I didnt know if I should laugh or run away. But the more I got to know you, I cherished you playful spirit as a refreshing change from the all-to-serious world I had gotten caught up in.
You are a constant reminder to us all that its important to have fun and not grow up too fast - for that I will always be grateful.
I only regret not being able to tell you this until now. I miss your big Jeremy bear hugs.
Love Meredith

My deepest sympathy goes out to the Luciow family and all who loved him. I can remember countless hours of the good times we shared with Jeremy. Whether it be up north or here at home. Jeremy loved to see people smile. His generosity and his love for others followed him everywhere. There was never a dull moment while in Jermey's presence. We'll miss you Jermey! You touched many lives and created many unforgetful memories. You've blessed us all, goodbye.

To the family and friends of Jeremy,
It was just a week ago I danced, laughed, and told Jeremy he is one of my most dearest and treasured friends. God must have been looking over me giving me one of my last chances. Please take the opportunity to live like Jeremy and reach out to as many different people in life and make them feel as important as he made each and everyone of us feel.
I MISS YOU JEREMY!!!!!!!!!!

To Jeremy's family and friends,
I want to let you know how much Jeremy affected a friend of mine that Jeremy knew for just a short time. I received an email from her when she learned about Jeremy passing away. The email said:
Janette,
How is Kerry, Rob and Dean doing? And you too, you were friends with Jeremy. I still can't get over that he died. I saw the newspaper from yesterday and today and it is just so sad. I just can't stop thinking about him and then everytime I do my eyes well up with tears. I couldn't sleep last night, I think I only got 2 hours of sleep. I don't know why this is affecting me so much, I wasn't in a relationship with him. I think it's because I liked him so much and if he would have felt the same, I would have been whipped! I was disappointed that he didn't like me the way I liked him. I thought he was very cute and funny and a lot of fun to be with. I'm going to miss him.
Kim
This goes to show what a special person he was and he will remain in our hearts forever.

TO MY FRIEND IN HEAVEN,
What you left behind was nothing short of a pure legacy. All your fun, all your games, and all your wild ideas will never be forgotten. Even the dumb idea to bring a kaoroke machine to Allord's 2002 New Year's party is still on my mind because it is just another goofy thing you thought of. I want to tell you, may god rest your soul and your spirit will always be with me.
Thanks for everything Jeremy!

To the family: I can't express how sorry I am for your loss. I had known Jeremy since 7th grade and all throughout high school in both basketball and soccer. Jeremy was a great guy that always made you feel as if you belonged. No matter what differences may have existed between groups in high school, Jeremy seemed above all of that.
To his friends: We must never forget the moments we shared with Jeremy or the way he touched our lives. Instead we must learn from the ways Jeremy lived, and use that to adjust the way we go about making choices. A bunch of us were to play basketball, hang out, laugh, vacation, etc with him again this year... how will we do this differently? I for one will cherish more of life's small moments with friends, we'll never know when we might lose the chance to see them again.

To the Luciows, My heartfelt sympathy.
I remember watching Jeremy play basketball through jounior high. I remember telling him he deserved the MVP award in 8th grade. I will remember the countless times we spent up north over the last 4 years. Most importantly i will remember his smile, his laughter and the joyfull attitude he had EVERY time we were together.

This is always the kind of thing that make you stand back for a minute....
To the family and friends that loved him so much:
I am so sorry for your loss.
I did not get know Jeremy all that well. We have a cabin across the lake from Beaver Point.
Friends of mine from up there, that is how I met him. Seems to me that he had lots and lots of friends up there, and I would assume, the same would go for anywhere he had ever been. A really great guy! And, as it turns out, as if the world is not small enough- some people that I work with were close friends with him as well. See what I mean......
Peace be with all of you...

I am so very, very sorry for your loss. Jeremy was a high school friend of mine and a very close friend to my family, the Mannella's. He will be sorely missed. I loved his energy, his smile, his humor and all the times he made me laugh. I know it's so hard to find comfort at a time like this, but know that he was so very loved by so many.....
God Bless,

I quiver. I shiver.
They tell me the news.
I wonder why He chose you.
I walk the streets remembering you
No matter what they say,
it’s still the same.
I know you’re okay and feel no pain,
But with each passing day
I say a prayer asking God to take care of you.
We miss you and love you.
In our hearts is where you’ll stay,
Until we meet again in Heaven someday.

I met Jeremy a few years ago when visiting a friends cabin. That was the summer of decorating the "Beaver." I remember his smile -he had a great smile.
I received the news of Jeremy's death on Monday - and it has been on my mind since. He was a great guy - who seemed to love life and surround himself with people who loved him and that he loved. Jeremy - you will be missed.
God Bless.
