My Dearest Friend....

As many of you know, Jamie battled with Stage IV Peritoneal Carcinomatosis since being diagnosed in March of 2010.  His battled ended Tuesday morning, November 18th, while at home surrounded by so much love.  From the first day of diagnosis to the last moment he drew breath, Jamie showed the strength and courage that has become an inspiration to myself and all of those who knew him.  He never gave up hope or stopped living his life.  His biggest dreams were accomplished after cancer came into our lives and he created a bond so strong with his daughters that his passing will not break.

From the posts I have read before and since his passing, Jamie has an extended family beyond us.  The thoughts and kind words have deeply touched me.  He is one of the most talented, passionate men I have met and he has left his mark on us all.  Thank you from all the parts of my soul for being in his life, even if it was a text message, an email, a blog comment, a facebook voice, or an Instagram follower.  Jamie will forever live in our hearts and he will be missed more than words can convey.  I am so proud of the man he was and the fight he gave.  His journey is just beginning, but his battle is over.  Please keep him in your thoughts as the days move forward and keep him close.

God bless you all for being his family...
