a group like no other

Jeremy is able to do what many can only dream of--that is taking a passion and making it a career.  Not only is he fortunate enough to be able to play music for a living, he's blessed to have some very ardent supporters.

Although Jeremy's dad, Mark, worked a long day at the paper mill the day of this show, he came to see Jeremy as soon as he got off.  An ardent supporter and proud parent.
Donnie Paul (Jeremy's Papaw) and J.D. (Donnie Paul's lifelong friend) had been awake before the sun rose, but the late showtime did not deter them from coming out to the concert.  They are dedicated in their support of their favorite drummer.
Not pictured here is Robert Earl, Donnie Paul's dear friend and fellow coffee drinker; because he arrived before the gates opened and had not yet met up with the group, he didn't make the photo-op.  He is the very definition of an enthusiastic supporter!

These men meet every single morning at Donnie Paul's to drink coffee and shoot the breeze, and I'm sure the morning after a concert is the most lively as Donnie Paul, Robert Earl, and J.D. give the rest of their coffee drinking pals the play by play of the night before ;).

When we're home, Jeremy usually finds himself present at these early morning visits--laughing at stories of times past and soaking up the wisdom offered from the men he respects so much.  He is most definitely blessed simply by knowing them.
