    I’m very sorry for your loss even though I haven’t seen Jeremy in awhile. I have very fond memories of all our time spent together as kids, boating, Halloween, hiking and going to N.H. for vacations and all those dinners at your house. Sharing our childhood together he will always be in my memories.
    Fondly Travis Davies

  18. Dear Petra, Mark and Jason,

    Thank you for Jeremy. I know Brian loved him like a brother. They grew together, from little boys that played t-ball and soccer together, played football in the backyard and watched Pats’ games (once in a while, they even let me watch!), then climbed mountains and even jumped out of an airplane! Brian’s move to the Rocky Mountains did not change their friendship, in fact I think it solidified it. Friendships like that are rare and should be remembered with a smile. I know we will.

    Love, Karen & Doug

  19. Mark, Petra,
    We are so sorry for your loss. I am grateful for the friendship he and Brian shared- not just anyone would brave the cold to help my injured brother complete the race of a lifetime, never mind run part of it with him! But then, that was Jeremy. My thoughts are in Middleton with you.

  20. Jason, Mark, Petra and Martha

    Beverly & Alex Popielski

  23. Dear Petra, Mark, and Jason,
    We are so sorry for your loss of Jeremy. We have many wonderful memories of Jeremy, and of the countless times our kids were together, as well as the many outings and times we shared.

    Love, Barbara, Peter, Matt and Christina

  25. I still think of you each and every day but I know your looking down on everyone with your bright blue eyes and heart warming smile that could light up any room, your sense of humor that could make the saddest person on Earth laugh hysterically and most of all that you had a heart bigger than the world and gave each and every person you met a piece of it that we will always cherish. You will forever live on in our good memories we have of you. No matter what life brings and how much life has changed you are and always will be my Angel.
