"I am deeply saddened by Jaime's death. She was such a sweet tender soul who truly loved all her consumers. I wish I had followed thru with keeping in touch with her. We always said we "would meet for coffee & get a chance to chat". But, as usual in many cases, life gets in the way & our plans never materialized. Rest in Peace, Sweet Jaime...."

" My sincerest condolences to Mr. and Mrs. Kaiser, Jeff and family at this saddest time. I was one of the lucky people who got to know and love Jamie as she worked with us to help so many people at The ARC. I will miss her loving spirit, keen mind and million dollar smile. Jamie's courage was another part of this very special lady as was her quiet power to attract all of us to her. We will miss her but we will share beautiful memories of the princess who knew exactly how to care for others. Bob Roberts "

Her loss has been stunning and very painful. Her memories though are so very strong and her quiet power and ability to attract our attention is one of a kind! Many of us who shared our service for folks at The ARC here in Kingston will miss her loving heart. Her million dollar smile is now part of our shared history of this precious lady. Thank you to the Kaiser family for bringing her to us however briefly. We will miss her but will never forget her. Bob J. Roberts"
