I worked with Jamie at Total Image salon, he had such a sweet spirit, and lit up any room he graced his presence with, the world lost a wonderful human, but heaven gained an angel.

Jamie left this world a better place than he found it—he will be missed by many. Although years have gone by since our last interaction, I’ll always remember his kind spirit.

Jamie, you made everyone feel welcome.
If i had to take all that there is that made you, YOU; it would be that.
I love you so much and I cannot believe we lost you so so soon.
You're an angel in every way— watch over us.

I met Jamie once at Shelley and Jason’s home. Of course, just meeting him that one time, I felt like I knew him forever. He cut my hair at his shop and I lived it. I brought him to work because his car would not start. I told him “Jamie, go and get you a brand new car today”. He even raised his hood to try and start it. I said no sir. Come on, I will go with you to the dealership.....anyway I knew him briefly but he was a big teddy bear and so So sweet. RIP sweet Jamie. You will not be forgotten. And you have your dad with you...

I met Jamie through the theater years ago, but really got to know him during “Hairspray “ at PALT when he played Edna. I wrapped my arms around him to measure him to make his costumes. While measuring him he wrapped his arms around me and thanked me with the best hug a person could receive. When he was working I took a dress to fit him and he came out all dressed up with the biggest grin, that’s how I want to remember him, glowing and completely wrapped up in his character.
