I coached soccer with Jeremy from the time are boys were 4 years old. He was VP when I was President of the SAY and SISAY soccer boards. For years, wasn't many days went by we didn't talk on the phone to ensure every child had the opportunity to play soccer if they wanted to play. I will remember all the talks we had when many times it was just him and I lining the soccer fields for hours or when we coached the kids and stood on the sidelines watching. Thanks Jeremy for all those times. May you rest in peace and comfort.
