May God comfort you in this time of sadness and loss.
Hi. This is Ada Martin. I worked with Jeremy at the Lititz Family Cupboard. I was shocked and very sorry to hear of his passing. I always enjoyed working with ‘Levy’ and one of my favorite memories of him is, one time he and I did a ‘roost’ group together and he looked great dressed in a tie, and everyone complimented him. He’d just grin and say how rare this is (to see him dressed up).
I’ll be praying for you as you go through this time of intense grief and shock. May you be able to remember all the good times you had with Jeremy and the richness he added to all of our lives.
I am so shocked/saddened by the news of Jeremy’s death. He will be missed by so many individuals. He was an awesome guy with a personality that made everyone laugh. My thoughts are with you and your family. –

We loved Jeremy very much. We were very close and spent many Saturday nights with the Lavoie family back in Rhode Island. Once the Lavoie’s moved to PA we would come down and spent the 4th of July and go to Hershey park. Jeremy would always make us laugh especially when he was younger putting to much food in his mouth and looking like a chipmunk. He will be greatly missed, but we will see him again someday in glory, because he was a christian and trusted the Lord Jesus Christ as his personal savior. Are heart goes out to the Lavoie family.
Love the Mann family.

I was shocked and saddened to here about Jeremy’s death. I worked at the Family Cupboard for 4 years and he was one of the best co-workers. He was always making it a fun place to work. You are in my thoughts and prayers during this time.

My name is Jessica and I worked with Jeremy at Applebee’s. We used to close the restaurant together all the time and when he didn’t have his license, I used to give him rides home. During these rides we talked a lot about life and got to know each other fairly well. He was a wonderful man, and the best friend anyone could have!! Even after we both left Applebee’s we continued to keep in touch! He will be greatly missed.. I have been thinking about his family constantly and I wish you the love and comfort of the Lord as you get through this tough time… You will forever be in my prayers and Jeremy will never be forgotten!!
