My son, Anthony Lee, was good friends with Jeremy, when Jeremy was a freshman and Tony was a Junior. They bonded over their love of dirt bikes. May they both be riding together out in the great wide open.
To Sheila, we met a few times when I would bring Tony and his bike over. We lost ours boys of the same fate. Please reach out when ready. My son's been gone just shy of 2 years.

So sorry to hear about his passing . Gone too soon and he is 29 years old, I knew him from elementary school. He was a dear friend to me as well! It is hard to describe, so I will end right here. So, good bye Jeremy and fly high over your family and I will miss you very, very very very terribly much. I hope to see you drumming up in heaven!

Instead of describing how wonderful Jeremy was, since you very well know the kind of man he´d become, I´d rather offer my sincere condolences on your loss. Just as the obituary said, he was taken way too soon, but my family and I wish that you find some solace in this trying time and take a moment to not only grieve an amazing person, but also celebrate the moments you had with him. Jeremy was a dear friend to me growing up and I can´t say how sorry I am that he can no longer spread joy with his presence. Please accept my deepest of apologies and all the well wishes I could possibly give. Gone but never forgotten
