Jeremy Rush Obituary
Jeremy was a respected and loved Realtor with ReMax, and worked tirelessly for the family he so deeply cherished. He enjoyed golfing with his brother, and they often found time to get a round in! He and Andrea devoted time to their family by going on fun day-trips and vacations where they built beautiful memories together. He was certainly the first one to be found playing in the yard, or rolling around on the floor with his kids during family gatherings. He will be forever missed and never forgotten. Jeremy will be eternally celebrated as the good man, devoted husband, loving father, wonderful son, brother, and uncle, and the loyal friend that we were so truly blessed to have.
Funeral Services will be held on Sunday, September 17, 2017 at 3:00pm at Gorsline Runciman Funeral Homes, DeWitt Chapel, 205 E. Washington St., DeWitt. The family will receive friends one hour prior to the service. Online condolences may be expressed at www.grdewitt.com.

Although I only knew him for a short time, he was so kind and fun to be around. He was great with his kids and with my son. My heart breaks and his family has my deepest sympathy.

My heart breaks as I think of the pain your family must be going through. I pray you are able to find more moments of comfort than sadness as you rest in the arms of our Heavenly Father, and I'll praise Him for the joy you found in Jeremy while he was with you here on Earth. Much love from my family to yours.

My condolences to Jeremy's entire family. I remember Jeremy as an infant and young child but us cousin's grew apart as often happens with time and distance. The few times I saw Jeremy as an adult he was always sweet and so proud of his family. It felt good to see him and Brian. They both reminded me so much of their father my uncle Berry. I am so saddened by Jeremy's passing and for the pain his loved ones are feeling. Jeremy may you rest in peace within the arms of our Lord and all the arms of those who love you.

I was so sad when you left Leelanau but then happy as could be when you settled in Dewitt.
Jeremy was a bright light in your lives and ours. His smile and laugh were a welcoming sight and sound.
Peace and serenity at this sad time sweet friends

My deepest sympathies to all the family. May the Lord comfort you all with His Presence and Compassion. I had overlapped once with Jeremy on a UPS assignment, and was looking forward to getting to know him better. He was such a fine man with a bright smile. We were all shocked and saddened to hear of his passing.

Jeremy, you were one of my best friends in the world and I considered you my other little brother. I will miss your laughter, your smile, being able to call and talk to you when I needed an honest ear the most. To say I am going to miss you just doesn't say enough. My wife my kids, my family, we all loved you with all our hearts and always will. Goodbye for now my brother, until we meet again. May God grant you peace and all of his love forever.
