Jamie was truly the most genuine person I ever knew, a true friend. She was the type of person that everyone loved. She could meet a total stranger & make them feel like they’d known her for years. She was one of a kind & I miss her so much.I think about her everyday & when I walk into her room I still find myself thinking she’s therem. My condolences to her family & friends. There is a void in my heart because she had a very place in my heart…..
