Jamie Hanson

Jaime could carry on a conversation with anybody. From the mailman to someone who worked on Wall Street. This would also be everyone in between. I think that is where I fit in. I lived on the other side of him in Cross Plains. We would talk in the afternoons frequently. He had a wide variety of topics, especially when it came to music. He knew quite alot on that subject. I had mentioned that someone sang Ava Maria at my Mothers funeral. He immediately directed me to one of his favorite singer/ group. That would be Chris Cornell from Soundgarden. He said it was an awesome rendition of the song. He was right and to this day, I think of him on that sunny day when Sloane was playing in her sandbox and we had a great conversation. I hope he finds the peace he tried to find in this world. May his soul continue to be a bright light. As John Lennon sang, "We All shine on, like the moon, sun, and stars". Robin Kroetz

Knowing Jamie for about 27 years was a true gift for me. I’ve had really only two best friends in my life and he was one of them! Unfortunately my other one ( Steve Connery) was taken away after a motorcycle accident about 15 years ago so it’s extra hard to have lost both of them! We had so much fun together and made each other laugh and goofed off a lot at the cable company which was one of the reasons I stayed on that job so long! We both got each other through so many BS days there! It was so hard and I lost all my fun times when he left the job. Anyhow he will be missed sooo much and he will never leave my memory!! Love ya Corn!!!

Hope the next world is calmer and you have peace. May Chris Cornell know you.
