I only met Jeremy once.  It was about three years ago, when I was collecting bats for my Ecology course.  You gave me a call one night, and I arrived with all my bat-catching gear.  And suddenly, Jeremy bounded onto the scene, wanting to help.  I gave him a net, which he proceeded to swish vigorously as he pranced around the basement.  His enthusiasm was infectious!  In fact, it has become one of my most memorable and enjoyable bat-catching experiences.  Clearly, Jeremy has touched so many lives in a similar way, and I am grateful I had that chance to meet him.  Thank you.
