Sara and family, I had NO idea and neither did my mom! I am so sorry. Thoughts and prayers are with you all.
Hey Sara & fam,
Wow, too young, too good, too soon. We’ll always remember that big kid in him and that smile to match. Thinking of you all.

Rest in Peace, my dear cousin.
A diamond in the rough. One that shined brightest when surrounded by his family, his friends, and when helping another. Generous does not begin to describe him. He would go out of his way to help a stranger. A gem of a human and a wonderful brother-in-law.
Jamie and Sara are both wonderful people. I didn’t know them both that well but what I do know is my daughter was very close with them both and the friendship, kindness, gratitude and love they both gave her was beyond any mothers dream for their daughter. Jamie will be missed by many. He always made time to say hello and chat every time I saw him. They even loaned us their camper one weekend we were in need.. no charge.. just have fun and make memories he said. Sara my deepest condolences to you and your family.
From troy Thea Danny your dad was a great person I will miss him. I remember going up to the house in Springwater for the pig roast your dad put on he was a great person I will miss him. He’s up there with Andrew ED your grandma and grandpa I will never forget Jamie. He was always good to me. I will remember him. now he is with the Angels.
Dear Jamie,
My family was fortunate enough to be your neighbor. You were the exact kind of neighbor everyone should be blessed to have known. It wasn’t that long that I last saw you and this is a surprise. I appreciate all of the life lessons you taught me, you will be missed. Truly a lost talent. The knowledge you shared will never be forgotten.
Sincerely the Johnson family
One of a kind brother-in-law!!! He was there for me when his brother Gary died and I lost my husband. I wished I could’ve been there for him the last few days. I will never forget him and all the trouble he used to find whether he wanted it or not. I will always love you and miss you Jamie! Cindy Knapp
Jamie was a great guy I will having a drink and talking with him at the legion.
