Hi Jeremy, it’s your old buddy Corey. Just wanted to check in; I trust that you’re at peace. I miss you manmy girlfriend and I play cards and darts on the weekends and it always brings me back to our weekend traditions together! Anyway, I’ll see you again one day. I love you man.
P.S.: The Twins have really screwed up what could’ve been a great season, the Vikings are a disaster, the Timberwolves are being sold to A-Rod, and the Wild let Suter and Parise go. Phew! Sorry brother. I know you’d get a laugh out of all that take care my friend.

Dear Sweet Jeremiah...
Five years ago today our lives changed for ever more....
I don't think you would even recognize the life you use to know....
One really good thing that has come to us, is your big sisters happiness. She found her soul mate and she is happy, she is strong, she is loved!!!!!
Your dad is where he wants to be... Granny is ill, they are blessed to have this time together....
Me??? Well, you know.....
I love you my son and hold you close in my dreams and in my heart... One day, my arms will be holding you!!!!

Der Jeremiah,
It is with a heavy heart I write today. My words of love to you, I must say.
You left this world, as we all know. You must move on, I have to let yo go.
My heart screams with each thought of you. But this is important, something I must do.
The Angles came telling me it is time to set you free. You have much to do and much to see.
With tears in my eyes and a pain in my heart, it is time to say good bye, It is time that we must part.
You have work to do and so do I... To say I don't miss you is surly a lie.
But, in this life I still must grow, In your life you have much to do and much to know.
I release you My Son, knowing we will be together again, when my work is done..
I love you Jeremiah Mark. I always will. I will see you in my dreams, when day becomes dark!!!!
Mommy

Jeremy - it's about a week from your 32nd birthday, and I just want you to know that I still think about you every day and miss you dearly. My life has changed a lot since I last saw you...I've got a beautiful wife, Cheryl, who I wish you could meet. I know you'd love her... I talk about you all the time. We have a big home in Coon Rapids and two dogs to enjoy the huge yard. I just finished school (again) with a machine technology degree and I think I have a good career going. Anyway...I hope you've found what you were looking for, I'll see you on the first of August. All my love, Corey.

To all those who have loved Jeremiah please always remember him eternally for his compassion, his gentleness, his caring, and his enormous gift of love. Remember him for the good times and not dwell on the sad times. Be thankful for him having been in our lives as we are all now a little bit better person, a little more understanding, a little more tolerant, a little more forgiving, with a whole lot more appreciation of what we are now missing. Jeremiah’s soul and spirit lives in us all and will forever. We are truly the fortunate ones but selfishly still want more. Jeremiah chose to end his pain for his own reasons and to watch over all of us as well. We should never forget nor hold anger for the ultimate price he paid for surely he had always wished and struggled to be free. How many times have we all said “ I could have done more “. How many “ what if’s “ will never be realized. Only God as Jeremiahs savior has those answers. Jeremiah is absolutely where he yearned to be and the heavens have been blessed as well. We all miss him dearly and will forever cherish and remain faithful to his memory. May his journey continue to bring him happiness and contentment and may we all meet again someday in Jeremiah’s world. Peace and Love Jeremiah.

I will miss you and all the wonderful times we had. We had the most wonderful talks that I think helped us both out. I don't know if you thought of this but, you saved my life the day you met me at the VA and took my car keys away from me and walked me into Urgent Care to my journey for sobriety. I've been clean now for 3.5 years and I owe that to you. I wanted to keep on going but you said it's time to surrender. I lost touch of you as I was trying to get my life together and I'm so,so, sad to say that that was the last day I saw you alive. It hurts my heart that I didn't keep in touch but, you knew how much you meant to me in my life. I will forever miss you but, I will never forget you. ILY, Jerry

Dear Diana, Rich and Heather,
I am so thankful to have been a part of Jeremy's childhood and teenage years. It is evident, that after high school he continued to grow into an even more amazing person. I will always remember him as being a gentle, warm-hearted, friendly, genuine guy....an absolute sweetheart. He was loved by everyone whose lives he touched and will be missed dearly. I am deeply sorry for your loss. Continue to remember the wonderful times you spent together and cherish those memories forever.
Rest in peace, Jeremy.

Jeremiah was a gentle, caring and giving guy. He and his family have made me the happy person I am today. I will never forget him. I loved him and his family, and know he feels safe and loved in God's arms. He will be missed, but he leaves us with the gift of being better people because of the time we had with him.

I met Jeremy while working at Supervalu. We worked on a few projects together and he was always professional, respectful and on time. Over time, we got to know each other better, talking football, vacations and others.
I just want you to know that my thoughts and those of my family are with you.
We hope you will find some comfort through these postings during this difficult time, knowing that he was a great guy, friend and colleague.
I am deeply sorry for your loss, Jeremy will be missed by more people that you will ever know.
Respectfully,

Words cannot express my saddness for the loss of such a great friend. I had the opportunity to become close friends with Jeremy over the past couple of years.

In My Pocket
I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.
My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.
They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.
Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.
But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.

We were his roommates for a year and he was in our wedding. We were so close to him before we moved and lost touch with him over the last year. We always missed him and will continue to miss him. We are sad to realize that our son will never have a chance to meet such a wonderful caring person that we loved and cared so much about. We will cherish Jeremiah's memories forever.
