Jermey was known for working hard and doing quality construction work. He began his own concrete business two years ago and had his sons working with him.
Becoming a grandfather was a special experience for Jermey. He didn’t expect to love becoming “Papa”. He had a special bond with his oldest granddaughter Emory.
