Our most sincere condolences to you and your family. You are in our prayers.
Jeremy was a bright light at the Kemah Boardwalk — a dedicated worker, a trusted friend, and someone who made every day a little better with his presence. He had a gift with animals, a true animal whisperer, and a heart big enough for everyone around him. Whether you needed a hand or just a laugh, Jeremy was always there.
Kind, funny, reliable, and full of life — he was the kind of person this world needs more of, not less.
We will miss him deeply, but we will carry his spirit with us every day. Rest easy, Jeremy. You were one of the good ones.
I do remember his great smile! Gone too soon! Rest in peace sweet nephew! My sympathies to Mollie, Gail, Cameron, and all who are grieving his passing. My prayers go up for you – peace that surpasses all understanding and comfort that only God can give you.

My condolences to the family. Jeremy will be greatly missed. He was family to me for many years. RIP may you play you’re guitar with all the legends.
Jeremy and I were childhood friends but it had been at least 35 years since we’d seen each other. It is so nice to read these recent memories and recollections. My love goes out to Jeremy’s wife and children as well as Gail, Ken, and Bryan and everyone else who lost a friend too soon.
