Jamie and I had so much fun in high school. Being around her just made things fun. She had a beautiful smile and a heart as big at all outdoors. No matter how long we were apart after graduation or how far apart we lived, when we got together it was like we'd not missed one beat. I miss her so much already but I am comforted by the fact that she is now at peace.

Jamie's beautiful smile and infectious laughter are two of my fondest memories of this wonderful person. She was always a blast at slumber parties...especially Beverly Brunson's! Bless Jamie and all those who loved her. Her spirit is ever present.



In my most peaceful thoughts of you,

So sad and shocked to hear of Jamie's death...my memories of Jamie go back to Irving Junior High. As a newcomer to C Springs, I had very few friends, and Jamie was a warm smile and included me with her kindness. One of my most vivid memories, was the many times Jamie joined my family on a camping trip...she was a trooper and fit right in with my family's craziness and fun.



My prayers to her family...Ami (Schafer) Adams

Jamie was our neighbor and friend for a few years. She loved working in her front yard, and was often the first one planting flowers in the spring. After 911, she put a large American flag on the front of the house to show her love and support for our country. It hung there the entire time she lived in the house. We truly enjoyed Jamie. She always had great stories, and was our own neighborhood watch, nearly all on her own! Jamie was always a good friend, a lot of fun, and full of love. We will miss her dearly, will love her forever, and consider ourselves blessed to have known her.

I knew Jamie, for only a short time. Then we lost contact with each other.

She was always very enjoyable to be around.

It was a priveledge to know her. And I'm sure God, is glad that she is at home, in heaven with him.

She will be greatly missed, by all who knew her!.

I was so sorry to hear about Jamie. We went to school together at Benet Hill. I was a year behind her in school. I remember when I started school there she was always smiling and friendly to everyone despite being the most beautiful girl in school. It did not surprise one bit when she was crowned prom queen her senior year.

My prayers and condolences are with her friends and family.
