Jeremiah was born January 19, 2002 in Claremore and was raised in Chelsea where he attended school. He loved playing football with his brothers, fishing for anything that would bite, and deer hunting with his dad. Jeremiah spent countless hours welding with his dad and he loved traveling in the big rig from state to state with his grandfather, also known as “Pops.” He was also known to be quite a momma’s boy, always spending time with his mother at the end of each day. Jeremiah loved singing with his mother. Music was a very special part of their relationship.
Jeremiah had an infectious smile and a goofy wit about his personality. He was very outgoing, always striving to make other people happy. Jeremiah loved to play pranks on his Uncle Paul, often forgetting to tell him it was a prank! He worked daily with his Uncle Tuck training in the arts of Muay Thai and Kickboxing. Jeremiah was looking forward to his first fight at the age of six-teen. Uncle Tuck and Uncle Jon Ross were Jeremiah’s idols.
