Jeremey was a man who loved to live life and was full of it. He loved well! Jeremey had a wonderful sense of humor and loved playing pranks and telling ‘dad’ jokes.

One of Jeremey’s greatest loves in this life was his grandmother, Naomi Printz, who had preceded him in death. She adored him and he her! Jeremey truly loved the community of Plowville and the people who lived here. Jeremey’s blood ran red, white, and blue…. he loved this country and all it had been founded upon. Jeremey was extremely supportive of Veterans and appreciative of their service and dedication for his freedoms. Never did he ever pass a veteran or current serving military by without shaking their hand and thanking them for their service.
