Pittsfield, MA Saturday, May 24, 2014 Jamie will be missed at our "Bell" family get togethers here in Pittsfield. He spent several years in this area and became a friend to all and gave us advice on raising our dogs. He will not be forgotten.Fred Robertson
Ralston, NE Saturday, May 24, 2014 I just found out about Jamie's passing yesterday from one of his teammates on the debate team--Matt Beckwith. Matt, Kris Kuhlman, and I visited yesterday about what a great friend Jamie was to all of us. He loved being on the speech and debate team at Fremont High School and I will always think of him as one of the kindest, gentlest, and funniest people I have ever known. He also made the best blues compilation cassette tapes for us to listen to on drives to speech and debate tournaments. It is such a tragedy that Jamie is no longer with us, because all he ever did was love and care for all others, and he will be missed dearly.Ron and Connie Ward
