Shortly after he began his career as an apprentice lineman for IBEW Local 1249, attaining the status and honor of Journeyman Lineman. Risking his life to provide a bright future for his loving family. A proud member of the IBEW local 1249, a brotherhood strong and proud of the service and work they do for people everywhere. Known and loved for his infectious smile and sense of humor, Jeremy enjoyed countless outdoor activities and anything with a fast motor. Snowmobiling, dirt bikes, hunting, fishing, and boating were just some of things that Jeremy cherished in his life. And above all, the most cherished in his life, was the time spent with his young children showing them his affection to no end.
