James M. Kiley, known to many as Jamie, passed away on September 17, 2026, at the age of 24.

Born on November 29, 2001, Jamie lived a life marked by curiosity, energy, and a genuine love for the world around him. He was a spirited and adventurous young man whose presence brought warmth and enthusiasm to those who knew him. He approached life with an open mind and a willingness to explore new places, new ideas, and new experiences, and he carried that outlook with him wherever he went.

In his free time, Jamie especially enjoyed traveling, learning and using new languages, and fishing.

He is survived by his sister, Caitlin (Dogukan Deniz) Kiley Deniz; grandmother, Jessie Kiley Mitchell; as well as other relatives and friends. He was preceded in death by his parents, Robin Troy and Stephen Hadley; grandfather, Eugene Kiley; grandmother, Jean Trow; grandfather, Robert Trow; and his uncle, Michael; along with his aunts, Shelly and Jody.

Though his time here was far too brief, Jamie’s life was filled with love, movement, and a spirit that touched many. Those who knew him will remember his adventurous soul, his bright presence, and the many ways he made life richer simply by being part of it. His memory will be treasured always.
