Jereme Thomas Parks, born January 10, 1979 and went to sleep in death April 6, 2021, and he awaits the resurrection hope.
Revelations 21: 3-4.
Survivors are Thomas and Ruth, parents. Beloved aunts, Barbara and Judy, as well as Uncle Jackie, Aunt Joy and Aunt Francis; and many cousins.
He was preceded in death by grandparents, Matthew and Inez and George and Rhoda, as well as Aunt Lois and Uncle Bruce.
Those friends close to Jereme are a very special friend Tabby; as well as dear friends, Carol and Emily; Diane and Mike; Boo and Mike; Karly and Ruth. There are also many other friends who played an important role in Jereme's life.
Jereme had many interest such as computer technology, astronomy, science of all kinds, history, and natural medicine.
He loved people and believed that all people matter and that all people are fully equal. He loved animals and rescued quite a few.
Jereme bravely fought his cancer diagnosis for three years and four months.
He graduated from New System Schools and the American School as well as attended Woodrow Wilson Tech Center for computer training.
We thank Blue Ridge Cancer Center in Lexington and Dr. Maladia and staff as well as UVA for all their support of Jereme, and Medi Home Hospice and their team of Dr. Bostic, Rachel, Kristi, Natashsa, Tomeka, Jim B, and other kind and supportive staff.
Of special note, we wish to acknowledge Aunt Ellen and Mary Rosa for their contributions to Jereme's precious life.
As we all deal with the uncertainties of current world conditions, we have a hope for the promise from the true God of eternity, that this planet will survive and mankind will find peace and security for all people. That promise is found in Psalm 37, 9, 10, 11, and 29.
A date for a memorial service for Jereme will be announced at a later date due to COVID 19 safety concerns.
Finally again, we thank Tabby, Barbara, Judy, Diane, and Mike for their steady support, during this journey.
May our beloved son rest in peace with no pain until the resurrection.
Please direct any gifts to the American Cancer Society or Blue Ridge Cancer Center.
Coffman Funeral Home and Crematory, 230 Frontier Drive, Staunton is in charge of his arrangements.
