To the Mix family and to the Scott family .. you all are in my every thought and prayers … so sorry for this tough loss ….. Christina I can only imagine the wonderful Mom you’ve been and are to your 4 girls … I regret I only remember Avery… I know our middle school years took us through some truly tough stuff … and I’ve always admired your strong Faith ….although our hearts are broken and grieving… I know your Faith will carry you through. Wish I could be there to support you and Honor what Jeremy meant to our lives through the years… I can’t even remember how many years it’s been … 22?! Or maybe more … probably more. Love & Prayers …. Thank you Jeremy for the impressions you’ve had on me and my Dad and my stepsister Emily who you helped her and a friend record some music a few years ago. You are missed! Wish I could be in St Joseph to lend support.

I knew Jeremy since May of 2024 and even though I only knew him for a short time we would talk to each other as if we knew each other for years. I worked closely with him on soundboard at Blueroof Church and he showed me many things on how to run it. He was such a blessing to me and for many on the Blueroof team. I pray for the Mix family that God will be near them during this time of loss.

For a decade of my life the Mixes and we pretty much raised our families together living side-by-side in one of those Kettering neighborhoods that Dayton is so famous for - the city of neighbors. What an awesome experience. Jeremy and Christina Scott Mix actually walked down to Avalon and talked us into buying the house next door to them across Schantz. Avery was tiny. Evelyn was not even here yet. I had just two kids then. Bridget was nine and Joey was a baby. Patrick didn't come until a year later. Christina and I seemed to be constantly pregnant there for a bit. We watched their family blossom with the four girls. I always said you are competing with my mom and dad for daughters. I was trying to explain to Jamie how close we all were. Jeremy had cookouts often, and he taught me the best S'mores recipe with Reese's Cups. Yum. I will only make those now. I picture him on his bike, as we were just constantly outside with our seven kids and the other neighbors. You should have seen the playhouse this man built for all these kids -- in this old, huge tree -- only an engineer could have created this, I tell ya. Jeremy was also a gifted musician. He had a business repairing instruments in downtown Dayton. He loved downtown Dayton. They planted a very cool Church downtown that had a coffee shop and awesome gym play area for kids. He was really such a cool guy. I think there was a recording studio at the music shop too. He had a band, and we put the stickers from them on all of our cars. ❤️ He literally was the type of man that neighbors named their son after. I was so close to the Mixes that I -- a 100 percent city girl -- fed their Chickens when they traveled. It was that kind of neighborhood -- one that my kids will talk about the rest of their lives full of friends, fun, and support through the good and the tough times. Jeremy was there for both always. And boy did I have both. He was the type of man who came to the hospital with his Bible in hand when his next door neighbor had massive surgery. He was a devout Christian, and being Catholic myself, we learned a lot from each other I like to think. Only the good...rest in peace Jeremy Mix. You were a wonderful neighbor for over a decade. Just last week Joey was saying how kind you were to him and how much he loved you and your family. I'm so sad. Too young. Way too young. I know if anyone is going to Heaven, it is Jeremy Mix. The man had undying faith. He adored his wife and kids like no other. He was one of a kind, and I am very blessed he touched my life. Rest in peace dear, dear friend.

I gave my life to Jesus in 2001 with the guidance of Pastor Rob Turner at Apex Community church. I went through 3 months of discipleship with Jeremy as my guide. He was the friendliest person I had ever met. He taught me so much about how to be a Christian and how to be a worshipper. He was a great leader and I feel lucky to have known him. May he rest in peace.
