We are saddened to hear of your loss. Jeremy leaves his friends and family a legacy of love, joyous memories. We will always remember his sweet smile.

Danny & Carla Butler - Friend

Words can not express how much I am going to miss my dear friend. Jeremy was like my brother. He was always there for me. Our families used to go to the lake together during the summers and we grew up together in church. After his health problems last May we had got a lot closer and he helped me through some things after I lost Marty. He was always the friend that would do anything to help you, that would give you the shirt off his back and would always stand by you in times of need and heartache. My heart is breaking right now because I will miss him dearly. I know you are in a better place Jeremy and I know that we will see each other again one day. I know that you won't suffer anymore and that you are dancing those streets of gold and getting to see Grandma Betty. I know she is so happy to see you. I will miss his jokes and him being a smart aleck. You are one in a million. Love you to the moon and back my heavenly brother!!

Paul and family, I am so sorry for your loss! It breaks my heart! You were there for me when I lost Vance and I will never forget that! I am praying for God's comforting Arms to just surround your family and somehow bring some kind of peace! We don't understand and sometimes that makes us really angry and that's ok. And then we will picture their smiling face talking to Jesus and that brings a smile to our face! Bless your family!

Paul and Becky, Joel and Tiffany, Karen, Kara Jo, Monroe, and all the rest of the family: Words cannot express what I feel for you in this time of sorrow. Jeremy was a fantastic young man, and he was a special friend to me. He and I just bonded, even back when he was in the high school band and I was driving the bus. He will be missed, but never forgotten. I love all of you very much, you're all like family to me, you were there for me when I needed you, and I'm here for you. Just say the word. Trevor and I are praying for you.

We were so saddened to hear this news. We have known Jeremy since he was a little boy and he always had a smile on his face. God had given him many talents, I loved to hear him sing with Paul and Joel. We will all miss him very much. He has touched many hearts in his short life. Our Prayers and love are with the whole family and for his little boys.

Barbara Matthews and Family - Close Friend

I just reconnected with him a couple of weeks ago. We both needed someone to talk to, and ended up talking for awhile. I don't believe in coincidences and God had a reason for my encounter with him. He was a blessing to many people in his lifetime. He will be missed and know that Jeremy is in a perfect place with the Heavenly father. The family is in my prayers.

Estep Family - Friend

I was shocked and so sad to hear that to hear that Jeremy passed away! God called home a very special person that touched so many lives. I met Jeremy when we were in choir and bad at CBC. I have so many good memories from CBC and Calvary Baptist church. Over the last few years we lost touch but I can just imagine he is having an amazing time with Ben and Dana. Jeremy you may not be here with physically but we will always have you in out thoughts and memories.

Amy Dailey - Friend

Jeremy, The last time I saw you was last summer on the lake enjoying the water and sun, I vividly remember as Kevin drove the boat you looked out at the water , took a deep breath and said ... this is perfect.. just what I needed. Well brother I know that what you see and feel, hear and enjoy is far beyond our imagination and you are in the most perfect place. You are deeply loved by many and will be greatly missed by our family.

So many memories of Jeremy in my years of growing up in Lincoln! Time spent on Sunday's and Bible Camp at Summers Church, years spent in friendship with Joel. He will forever be in our memories and the hearts of all those his grace has touched. Many prayers to his family and friends. Praying that time and the love you have for one another can give you strength. The bond of a child, parent, or sibling will never be extinguished, but lives in your heart and feeds your soul forever.

My heart has been heavy since I heard about Jeremy. He had such an amazing outgoing personality. His smile would light up a room. I have so many wonderful memories with him and the whole Young family. He reached out to me last month on Facebook. He had found an old picture of us. We both had a good laugh about it. I'm so beyond thankful that I had the chance to talk with him again. I've been praying continuously for his boys, Paul, Joel and the entire family. May God wrap his arms around all of you a guide you through this difficult time. Much love to all of you!
