Jeremy was an amazing father who loved his children very much and would do anything for them. He was a kind and caring individual to all his friends. Jeremy was a hard working over-achiever who excelled in all he pursued.

Foley, as his friends knew him, was hardheaded and stubborn, but kind and considerate. He was generous, big hearted, and loyal to anyone that was lucky enough to be his friend.

He had the most fun letting loose with friends, and it would always make him laugh, by being out-witted or when jokes were made at his expense.

He loved the time of year that was horror movie and football season, and was very passionate about his love/hate relationship with his favorite team, the Denver Broncos. He loved horror and sci-fi movies. He was a big fan of Star Trek and Star Wars, and the Halloween film series. He loved European Horror/Thrillers (the more odd and strange, the better), and all movies directed by Lars Von Trier. He was a music enthusiast and loved playing electric guitar. Bands he enjoyed most where the Misfits, Type O Negative, Danzig, and Bahaus.
