Sending my condolences and prayers to Jamie’s family during this difficult time. I am heart broken. I always looked forward to seeing Jamie when she would come into Houston. She always had such a comforting nature and always full of kind words, laughter- she just radiated with beauty inside and out. She was a great friend to many. I saw Jamie and her Mom last month and I could not speak enough kind words as I told them both she is truly a beautiful person and great friend to me. I never would have imagined it would be the last time I would see her or give her a hug. May Jamie rest in peace, never forgotten, that she is comforted in God’s arms.

Dearest Brown family, I met Jamie last year. We both shared the love for our cats and of promoting our area's local restaurants. I'll never forget how nice she was to me that day at Cotton Creek. I'm sad I won't get to see her smiling face around anymore. My heart goes out to all of Jamie's family, friends, and students. She truly was a kind-hearted person who enjoyed life.

It is never easy to lose our family and my heart hurts for you and your family, Meredith. I’m so sorry for your tragic loss and wish there was more that I could do. Love you lots, Robyn.

I still remember the first day I met Jamie when we took Old and Middle English together my Senior year at Lamar. I had no idea who to sit by, but knew I wanted to sit in the back. Not because I'm a slacker, but because I'm tall and hate to block the view of those behind me. Jamie was sitting in the back row as well, and something about her warm, inviting smile made me comfortable with her from day one. I'm so glad we stayed in touch, even if it was just through Facebook. Watching her accomplishments was amazing, and I'm glad she shared them with us. My heart aches that her bright spirit is no longer with us, and for all of the family she dearly loved that are left behind.

I met Jamie on Halloween a couple years ago. For the longest time she would call me Wonder Woman, because that is who I dressed as that night. Jamie was always a great friend to me. She came to my birthday party last year, and she was the only person to give me gifts besides my family and boyfriend. My parents told me later on that she told them how nice I was and how much she appreciated me as a friend. We shared many fun and silly times together, and when I was going through a rough time this past year, she was always a phone call away and would literally drop everything to be there for me. She was the best friend and listener anyone could ask for. We lost touch over the holidays and towards the beginning of this year, but I was lucky enough to see her one more time this past Sunday. I will always remember how kind and genuine she was. I couldn't have asked for a better friend, and she was truly one of a kind. I know her memory will live on in the hearts of all who were lucky enough to know her.

I will always forever remember the sound of Jamie’s boisterous laugh and her beautiful face; and how her eyes told you how she felt about something without her saying a word. My heart aches for her and I share the grief felt by her mother Kristi; and siblings, Meredith, Sarah, Caleb, and Nathan. She was taken from us much too soon. I know she is in heaven with Jesus and will have many cats like Cecil.

I met jamie when my kids and her brothers went to school together. From day 1 we were fast friends and forever kindred spirits. Her laugh and her smile were contagious, and i would choke from laughing with her about everything and nothing. We had our own jokes and shared our love of makeup, sushi and margaritas. She was my person. She will always be my yang. I love you jj.
