He Graduated from Wheelersburg high school in Wheelersburg, Ohio. Jeremy also got his EMT certification and was a reserve for Ford County Fire and EMS. He worked for National Beef as a Red Hat in the Cooler Department. He was also a member of the NRA.

Jeremy had a big personality and an even bigger heart. He was fun, loving and caring. You could often find him riding his Harley, which was his first real love.
