    Thinking of the Hall family during this very diffuclt time. My first memory of Jamie is as a little boy standing with his brother Rusty on the other side of the fence between our yards. They were always together; his family was the best to our family. I didn’t know Jamie as a grown man personally, but always heard about him through my brother. Just this past summer Perry came for a visit and got a call that the cows from the Ag Dept had escaped. It was Jamie that rounded them back up. I know that the entire community will miss him. You have been in my prayers and thoughts.

    My love and prayers to my oldest lifelong friend, Blaire and to their beautiful children who will grow up a little too fast from this experience. May their hearts be healed by the love of friends and family and God, and may they feel comfort from Jamie’s memories. He was a dear man, a good father and good husband. May God bless you all…

    I write this to a father, who has been like a brother to me all of my life, who has lost his child way too young. My heart goes out to him and the extended family. Maybe the reason Jamie cramed so much living into so short a life, was in some way he felt he had to. He did so much to leave the community and state a better place when he left it. In time to come may his family remember beautiful memories and dwell on those. God gives us memories that we might have roses in December. James Earl I love you and weep for all of you. Be brave for Jamie’s kids. He would want and expect that.

    My prayers and thoughts go out to Blair and the rest of Jamie’s family. Jamie was a member of class V of the Wedgworth Leadership Program and that is where we became friends. Jamie has friends in Ag all over the state and our hearts ache over his passing. I am very sorry for your loss, Eric Hopkins

    Jan and James Earl, my heart goes out to you. I know that until you face the loss of your child, you can only imagine what parents go through when they lose a child. It has to be the hardest thing to ever have to face. I want you both to know that you are in my thoughts and prayers. I pray that the Lord will give you the strength that you need during this most heartbreaking time of your entire life. Be strong, and hold on to your faith in God. He will always be there.

    To Jamie’s entire family. The entire community has lost one of the finest young men we have ever known. My two sons, Chad and Brad, along with our daughter-in-law Kay considered Jamie such a special friend. I know God is the only comfort you have right now but please know that we have all considered him a special friend and outstanding young man and shall miss him in our community. We are as close as the telephone if you see a need during this tragic time.

    I am so sorry to hear about Jamie’s death. He was an excellent student when I taught him. I never remember having to correct him. That shows that he had good parents and a great upbringing.

    Jan and James Earl, I am remembering you in my prayers and thoughts. May the good Lord help you and yours through this trying time. I know that he will live on through those grandchildre. May God bless you all.
