Jeremy Roy Eldredge

In Loving Memory of JEREMY ROY ELDREDGE September 5, 1989 - Sunday, February 3, 2013 Jeremy Roy Eldredge, 23, passed away Sunday, February 3rd, 2013 in his home surrounded by his loving family. Jeremy was born to Kenny and Karie on September 5, 1989 in Twin Falls, Idaho. Jeremy graduated from Lighthouse Christian School in 2008, and was an incredibly gifted athlete. Jeremy excelled in football but his true passion was basketball. He was awarded All-Conference player in both sports. Jeremy continued on with Lighthouse football as an assistant coach. One of his favorite pastimes was going to the gym or working out with dad at home. Jeremy loved spending time with his sister and brothers and their families; he adored all of his nieces and nephews. Jeeping with his family brought the biggest smile to Jer's face, and oh what a smile he had. Jeremy was in an automobile accident in May of 2009 that nearly took his life. He suffered a major brain trauma and should not have survived. That is where "Jeremy's Journey" began. Many lives have been touched during his physical struggles during the last 3 1 /2 years. We as a family have been able to see through the lives of other people why Jeremy survived. Jeremy is survived by his parents Kenny and Karie; sister (and best friend) Lindsey (Chris) Collins; brothers Justin (Heather) Eldredge; Brandon (Randi) Eldredge; grandmas Barbara Kreft and Ann Eldredge; grandpa Allen Eldredge; uncles Kevin (Melodie)Kreft, Garren(Jeanne) Taylor, Jordan (Laverne) Eldredge, and aunts Jenny (John) Resch, Galene Taylor, Genell (Glenn) Mutter; nieces Camille and Camber Collins; and nephews Tristin, Tanner, Mayson, Brayden, Austyn, and Carson; as well as many cousins and so many dear friends. Jeremy was greeted in heaven by his grandpa Phil Kreft, grandma Gisela Eldredge, nephew Camden Collins, and niece Maycee Eldredge. We wish to give many thanks to Dr. Cole Johnson and caregivers at Riverridge Rehab facility and a special thank you to Travis, Sophie and Rick from St Luke's Hospice. For Jeremy's family the sun may never shine as bright, nor the grass seem quite as green; our lives have been so much richer for Jeremy having been in it. "And now these three remain; faith, hope and love, but the greatest is Love." 1 Corinthians 13:13 A celebration of Jeremy's life will be held Saturday, February 9th at 11:00am at Lighthouse Christian Fellowship in Twin Falls. In lieu of flowers, it would bless our family for donations to be made to The Jeremy Eldredge Memorial Scholarship Fund at Jeremy's alma mater, Lighthouse Christian School, 960 Eastland Drive Twin Falls, Idaho 83301.
