Josh and Kayla Heffington. You and your family are all in our thoughts and prayers. So very sorry for your loss.
What a beautiful video tribute. Jeremy was a precious soul who traveled a long troubling road until recently. God is with him now and there is no more trouble or pain or any more mistakes. He's an angel now and watching over you sherryl. Rest in love Jeremy. Tell granny shock my mom and aunt Thelma hello for me.
We know there are no words that can ease the pain your family is dealing with, but hope that you find love, comfort and support in family and friends. Jeremy is whole and watching over you all, and is waiting for you. We're keeping you in our hearts for the difficult time ahead. â¤ï¸
We did not know Jeremy, but we regret the sorrow you feel - we grieved the loss of two sons in their 20’s. We can tell you that as time passes you will be able to remember more of the good times and dwell less on the loss of Jeremy. We found that each person grieves in a different way and at different times, so we encourage each of you to allow for those differences in your families.
We are of the Christian faith and as we dealt with our pain we came to understand that God is still sovereign. May you find comfort as you walk through this “valley of the shadow of death” and may friends share their good memories of Jeremy with you.
May God wrap his arms around each of you & give you the strength and peace that you need and deserve at this difficult time.
My thoughts and prayers are with you daily. May God give you comfort and peace.
We are praying for your family. Jeremy was a great person . He was definitely one of a kind.
There are no words to express how sorry I am for this tragedy to have happened. I can remember him as a wee youngster playing and pestering my Josh as well as his brother Josh. My prayers are with you all wishing you peace and comfort during this trying time.
Sorry for your loss. May the Lord bring you comfort.
