Hi. Jamie did an internship with me at the indigent health care clinic when he was a high school student. He was a star! He helped me so much. You could see even then that he was headed for amazing things and had so many gifts to share. I send my condolences and thoughts and prayers. I was blessed to have him in my life.

With deep sadness, I remember Jamie, a brilliant mind and exceptional colleague whom I first encountered during our collaboration on the ADDM project. His remarkable talent and vibrant spirit shone through in every interaction.
Our professional relationship was marked by engaging discussions about technical challenges and innovative solutions. Jamie had an innate ability to envision ways to exceed customer expectations and enhance user experiences. His enthusiasm for problem-solving was truly infectious.
When I ventured into a new business endeavor, Jamie generously offered his time and expertise, providing valuable insights and guidance. His willingness to support others' growth exemplified his character.
His passing leaves a void in both our professional community and in the lives of those who knew him. May he rest in peace, and may his family find comfort in knowing how deeply he impacted those around him.

To know Jamie was to experience his infectious laugh and zest for life. He inspired all of us to strive for our best selves. I have countless cherished memories of Jamie—like the time he accidentally sliced the tip of his finger off with an axe while we were camping or when Kyler and Jamie allowed me to interview them for my thesis on their parenting strategies for Pax. I’ll also never forget how we screamed our little emo hearts out together at the Death Cab for Cutie concert. Jamie had a remarkable ability to elevate any moment.
His spirit will forever shine through Pax’s adventurous nature and all the epic powder days to come.
To Kyler and Pax—know that you always have unwavering support from Zach and I. We love you both so much.

I had the pleasure of teaching and coaching Jamie during his time in middle school. He stands out as one of the most exceptional football players I have ever had the privilege of coaching. Jamie consistently demonstrated unwavering dedication, giving his all in every practice and game. Reflecting on our time together, I hold fond memories of his remarkable commitment and passion for the sport.

Kyler, Pax, and all who loved Jamie,
My most sincere condolences. I worked with Jamie and to add to his beautifully written obituary, he was a happy, ambition, and driven colleague with a zest for life that you felt from the moment you met him. He was also a fierce LGBTQ ally.
There is a Jamie sized hole in my heart.
Hugs to all of you!

Sending you soooo much love. We know there is a big energetic shift with Jamie’s passing. And we will all miss his kindness, patience, smile, and laugh. He lifted those around him up. And so now we’re leaning in to lift each other up. With love. And more love.
Jamie was the best to ski with. An amazing skier. His movements were effortless. But he was also kind and didn’t have hubris. He cared about those around him. He wanted everyone to be comfortable and have fun. And laugh. Jamie has the most contagious laugh.
Sometimes the best memories are the most simple. We always loved running into / past Jamie on runs. We’d smile and wave, and run on our way. There is so much understanding and acknowledgment in a wave. And it was the best waving to Jamie.

Jamie was awesome to play pond hockey with every year. He had such a great and active presence in our fantasy hockey and football leagues. He was an athlete of all sports. I don’t think there was a sport out there he wouldn’t try. He will be deeply missed and always loved.
