Jamie attended Prescott and Hoover Elementary Schools and the Iowa Braille and Sight Saving School in Vinton. After school, he worked at Stonehill Care Center, first on an ARC crew and most recently directly for Stonehill in the laundry room for a grand total of 30 years. He was a happy-go-lucky person who was always helpful and enjoyed caring for his family and for others. He loved to listen to music of any genre, watch movies and especially enjoyed the 3 Stooges.
