Jeremy, it has been a year today. I miss you so much. I thought this would get easier but it has not. I think about all that you are missing and it just breaks my heart. You should be here making me laugh and giving me the big bear hugs that you used to give me. Or you should be here asking for money to go out. God how I miss you. Just remember that we love and miss you very much.

Betty Cox

Jeremy it has been almost a year since we lost you. There is not a day that goes by that you are not in our thoughts. Now you have your grandmother up there with you and that does give me a little peace of mind knowing that you are there with each other. I just want you to know that we miss you more than anything in the world.
Love you, Mom

Rick, I know this is a voice from the past, but I read in the Elizabethtown paper about your loss and just wanted you to know that there are prayers going up for you and your family from Hodgenville, Kentucky. I can't imagine what you must be going through. As a mother of three, this would be my worst nightmare. Take care.

Rick, Betty, and Chris,
We have also known about this guestbook and have been unable to sign. We absolutely loved Jeremy. Hannah was telling a friend a story about him just last week. He had such a kind and tender heart and we will miss him greatly. We are so sorry we weren't able to make the service but hope to come soon to share in your grief and hopefully offer some comfort. Until then we pray that God comforts and strengthens each of you as you go through this most difficult time. We love and miss each of you and will be in touch soon.
Mitch, Jennifer, Zach and Hannah

Mr. & Mrs. Cox,
I'm so sorry to hear about the loss you have experienced. I know that I have not had the opportunity to talk to you two lately, and i'm so sorry. Also, I know that I had not talked to Jeremy lately either. I think the last time I saw him was in Jan. or Feb. And after that we lost touch. I offer my deepest sympathy for the loss you two have suffered. I'm so sorry again. If you ever need anything, you can always call!

If you ever need anything I am here for you.

Dear Betty and Rick,

Mine and Christopher’s loss is so small compared to yours, but please know that Christopher and I really did love Jeremy and we will forever miss him. Jeremy was Christopher’s best friend for better or for worse. As I sit here crying it is hard to believe that I will never hear Jeremy tell me “I’ll be good Momma” as he and Christopher are walking out the door. What I would give to be able to call you one more time at 2:30 in the morning to tell you our boys have gotten themselves in trouble again. It all seems so silly now. I pray to God to watch over and protect Jeremy. I know that one day we will all be able to see his smile again. I know he is in heaven looking down on all of us. You have my sympathy for the loss of your beautiful son. I can not even imagine the depths of the pain in your hearts. Please know that I am here and will be here if you ever need to talk.
