James Hancock Obituary

I lost touch when my letters were returned. I had no idea my true friend had passes until today when I , once again, searched for him.
He was one of the nicest, funnest friend I knew.
I do not know how he passes but yesterday I found several photos of us in Myrtle beach and on bike runs...
Watching the news of this hurricane caused me to try to reach out, just to see that he has been gone for many years now.
I'm sad.
I'll miss the friend I knew in him..

Jaime, My Brother! I miss you. Please forgive me for not staying in touch. The last time I saw you was when you were building your new house in that field. We worked together and had fun together too. I knew you at McElveen in Summerville during the 1996-2000 time frame. I hope to see you in eternity my brother.

Your light will always burn bright in my heart brother!

I did not know . . . My heart just breaks, Jamie played a special role in my life many years back, we rode and worked together. I love him like a brother. He in many ways was and always will be my hero. Love you Jamie, you will live on in my heart now and forever. Love ya, Gary McElveen

Jaime, I'll see you again. This is not where it ends. I will carry you with me, until I see you again. Love you always, Lynette

To Jaime's family, He was a one of a kind, great guy! Please just know that he will be greatly missed! I learned a lot from him over the years at the auctions. Mainly Statesville, Darlington, & sometimes Greensboro. I live near Raleigh and frequented the same auctions that Jaime did. A group of us for many years, after a long day buying cars, would go out to eat dinner together, as we all stayed in the same hotel. A lot of times, it was just Jaime & I. He always talked about his family, and his farm. I saw him about a month ago in Statesville, and he invited me down to Charleston. I'm really going to miss him, he was an awesome guy! I am truly sorry for your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you!

Sorry this is so late but Jaime has been buying cars for us for years up here in MN. I never was able to actually meet him but he came with high recommendations and lived up to them. 100% trustworthy, hard working and just a great guy to talk to every week. He will be missed by all of us up north and, from talking to the auction, all of them at Statesville, too. As he always said "You don't never know". God Bless to all family and friends.

Ride hard and free brother.

Many heartfelt thanks to everyone who came and told us wonderful stories about Jaime. I did not realize that he was as good and as kind and helpful to everyone as he was to us.
It was so wonderful to meet all Jaime's friends from the farming life in St George. Every time we see a pick-up with a Farmer plate we'll remember and be happy for him having become what he wanted to be, a Farmer, and having so much help from his fellow farmers.
We appreciate everyone who came on a bike. The sound you brought was the sound of Jaime pulling up in my Mama's driveway. Every time we hear that sound we'll think of Jaime and remember all his kindness and his wonderful friends. Every Memorial Day weekend when our neighborhood is filled with the sound of bikes it will make us happy to think of Jaime.
Thank you.

R.I.P. My Brother.

Jaimie always looked forward to seeing,and talking to you at Statesville auction. A gentleman who I liked and respected. God Bless Bruce Moler

Jamie, God bless you and your family.

Jaime RIP brother. It was good knowing you. Condolences and prayers to your family

I did aleays appreciate the friendship, stories, the wisdom and the advice. It was a pleasure to know Jaime, he was a really good man and a good friend. My sincere condolences to his family and friends, RIP Hancock!

Jamie was a customer and over the years became a friend. He was always a friendly face and handshake and often had a fun story to share. I'll miss him and hope that his family takes comfort in knowing that Jamie lived his life honestly and with love in his heart for those around him. He'll always be with you.

We were saddened to hear about Jaime. I know he loved ALL of you. Just remember, we may leave this earth, but.......love never does. It remains forever and ever. Take care of each other. May God continue to bless each of you.

Adam, Papa and I are here for you, day or night. We love you very much.

Adam you were truly the apple of your Dad's eye. He spoke of you over and over in many conversations. Please find peace and comfort in knowing how much we all care. He was a great measure of a man.

Jaime was a very special person and Friend..I will always remember the good old days in the navy yard.... " Listen to the rumble, listen to roar it's Jaime riding through Heavens Door". Rest in peace my friend...

I met Jamie in construction and got to know him at the shipyard. We had a lot of same interests, boats, bikes and cars. We were good friends and when the shipyard closed I lost contact. Recently divorced, made contact with Jaime again. He was a friend and made me feel better about life when I needed it most because he had a way with words that made you feel better. I will miss Jaime, thank you for being my friend when I needed it the most.

I worked with Jamie @ The shipyard I knew Jamie for 30 years He will be truly missed by many people "Rest In Peace" Jamie GOOOO! TIGERS

I remember Jaime from Bishop England, as well. What a super nice guy! From reading all the entries I can clearly see that he only got better with the years!!!! God bless your family and friends at this difficult time.

Jamie was a valued member of East Cooper ABATE and will be missed by all his fellow bikers.

Jamie, even though we only knew you for a short time, you will be greatly missed. Thank you for making Lynette so happy and treating her like a Princess. You brightened our day at the auction, we will keep you in our hearts forever.

I remember Jaime from Blessed Sacrament School and Bishop England. I see him in my mind's eye as a young man with a perpetual smile, always kind, and just a very nice person. My prayers are with his family and many friends at this very sad time.

Mrs. Hancock,Susan,Adam,Kathy and Cara: I am so very sorry for your loss and I pray God will guide you through the tough days ahead. Adam, your dad cherished you and loved you so very much. Please know you all are in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. ~Nan

For you, I hope heaven is orange.

Still can't believe this... all of us will always miss Jaime... absolutely, positively one of a kind individual - He could & WOULD wind you up just for the fun of it... but we all knew he was a great guy.

Our Love and Prayers are with you and your family, may you feel God holding you . With Love Kathy and the pool gang

Oh Jaime, you left us too soon. I miss you already

It was the late 80's. I'd rode my blue bicycle to the ATM in Sangaree at the same time as this guy rode up on a blue Harley. He was running a comb through his thick black hair and said to me, " you first," I said thank you, then I asked, do you have a pen I could borrow ? He handed me his blue pen. I did my transaction and then I said, might you have any gray poupon ?

We laughed and have been friends ever since.

That can never happen again, there was only one Jaime. Like all of you I feel the loss, but I know he is riding high and free in the sky, helping someone else and being a great friend.
My prayers to the family and may he rest in peace, I'm so saddened by the news

Jaime, You were a smart guy with the most beautiful head of hair I have ever seen...Thank you for giving me my perfect nephew, Adam.

This is really sad news. Jaime and I go way back to James A Merritt where I first met him back in 1975. We both left there and worked together at a series of places including CNSYD. We had this thing to warn each other if the boss was coming we would shout "hootie hoo hootie hoo" borrowed from Gomer Pyle. May the good Lord comfort you all Adam & Susan. Hootie Hoo my dear friend Scott Daniel San Antonio TX

I remember Jamie @BSS for 8 yrs & 1 yr @BEHS. Hvn't seen him in several years but he was always quiet and soft spoken. May Gods love & peace hold all of those he left behind during this sad time. May you Rest In Peace, Jamie.

Jaime was a great frind of mine for 40yrs.met him in the late 60's and worked with him at the shipyard for 20yrs and enjoyed his friendship the whole time!anytime he was around it was a big plus!he would help you in anyway he could! a mans man.there will be a big void in my life now.glad he came by my house to see me 3 weeks ago. You will be missed! Ride on my brother .I will see you on the other side!

Jamie was one of us Blessed Sacrament School boys. Jamie was in many of my homerooms throughout Blessed Sacrament and we graduated in the same 8th grade homeroom in 1969. I can see Jamie, Artie Anderson, Robert Lee, Stephen Bolchoz and all of us playing football before school and during lunch. Jamie was a good guy and friend.

Great guy, will be missed. Enough said! Rest in peace Jaime

I met Jaime, 14 years ago, at Statesville Auto Auction. Jaime was an amazing person. He was caring, professional, generous, sometimes stubborn, but always respectful. All he cared about was getting a fair deal. He treated each dealer with respect and he expected the same in return. Every Monday afternoon he would come in to see how my week was and tell me about his farm and show me pictures. Every Tuesday before he left he would check in to tell me bye and that he would see me next week "Lord willing and the creek don't rise." He always said yes/no ma'am, even after I moved, he would check in with me to see how I was doing. I am blessed to have known Jaime Hancock. He was a wonderful man. I just can not believe that he is gone. I am very sorry for you loss. Jaime will truly be missed!!! God Bless and RIP Jaime <3

I worked with Jamie at the shipyard (pipe shop 56 ) he was a very good person to be around, heaven has an angel added to the clouds... peace be with his family at this time of heavy hearts.

Goodbye my friend. You always made working the auctions more interesting. You'll be missed by many. Jeff.

Jaime, I miss you so very much! These past three months together were the best. I only wish.......SWEET MEMORIES FOREVER I will always remember your big smile, your silly jokes and the love that you have for all animals. (even the turtles that you saved from the highway) Jaime, you are a special person and I will always keep you in my heart. I love you, Lynette

Jamie was such a good guy. I pray for God to ease the grief of his family and friends. Ride on. Love, Nettie

My thoughts and prayers are with Jamie's family. He will be missed by many.

Dearest Jamie there isn't a day that goes by that I don't think about you and the times that we had together and how many times you made me laugh how many times you made me cry but in the end you always made me smile. It is memories that nobody can ever take for me you are and will always be one of my dearest best friends. You will always hold a special place in my heart. Rest in peace my sweet Jamie. until we meet again keep riding in the sky my sweet angel.????

I meet Jamie back in the Electric Keg, when all the shipyard workers would meet on Wednesday nights. He was one of kind and always let you know how he felt. He will be greatly missed and my thoughts go out to his family. Ride the heavenly skies Jamie & tell Roy hello for us.

Jamie was a great friend to me. He was there for me and my wife during her sickness and was great to me after her passing. He was a good friend to me 30+ yrs. I will miss him alot.

Time Out and Skynyrds will never be the same...

Jaime was a wonderful person. He had a heart of gold and a world of friends. You will be missed dearly. I am praying for the family and I wish to give my deepest condolences.

Jamie Hancock was a member of the Bishop England HS class of '73 and they just celebrated their 40th reunion. So, here's hoping that Jamie will save us all a spot in heaven for our last reunion. It was always good to bump into a fellow like Jamie as he always greeted you with a smile. May God bless him and his family!

Jaime, You were a good friend, and always there if I needed. I don't know if there is any thing greater than a loyal friend.
Rest in peace and ride the sky.

Jaime was the best big brother ever. I could call and describe what my car was doing. He'd tell me what was wrong with it and a good estimate of the dealer cost to fix it. If it was something simple he'd tell me how to fix it over the phone.
My brother Jaime loved animals. He has 4-5 dogs that he found, or that found him. Animals know who likes them. If you are interested in adopting one of Jaime's dogs, please let us know.
Thank you for your kindness and friendship to my brother. God Bless you.

RIP my friend. You will be missed.

Jamie was a wonderful friend. He was always there with good advise and a helping hand. I'm sure we'll always think of him when the roar of a Harley is heard. RIP Jamie.
Martin and Susie Weckerly
