Jeremy Javad DALRYMPLE
Born June 13, 1976 (an independent thinker). He died in a motorcycle accident June 18, 2001 on his Aunt Gloria's birthday and 5 days after his 25th birthday. Our hearts go out to all those involved in the accident. He leaves behind loving parents Aundrea Dalrymple, (Jeremy was truly blessed by his extraordinary Mom) and Michael (River) Rusich; grandparents Win and Mary Dalrymple and Ivan Rusich; uncle and aunt Greg and Paula Dalrymple; uncle and aunt Peter and Gloria Hohn; half-sister Quincy; cousins Erika, Colin, Bubba Dalrymple and Julia Hohn, 'the tribe' and many relatives and friends. The saying 'The good die young' is true in his case. He was such a good person, true and loyal to family and friends. A deep thinker and down to earth person, slim and tall with an active mind. He could make those who's life he touched feel good when he hunched his shoulders down to wrap his long arms around them in a big warm hug. He loved music, singing, and dancing. His passion was sound engineering at night. He worked as a carpenter for his uncle Greg. Jeremy had good conversations with his Aunt Paula. His uncle Dr. Peter Hohn took good care of his health and his Aunt Gloria was always there like a second mom. The lives he touched carry his love forward. A memorial gathering to celebrate his life Sat. June 23, 2001 3:00pm at Greg's Home, 229 PL NE, Redmond, WA. 98053, 425-868-0704. Those who wish, may plant a tree in Memory of Jeremy.
