Her sudden departure has left an immense void in the lives of those who knew and loved her. Jamie was more than a neighbor, more than a friend—she was a true confidant and source of comfort to many. To those fortunate enough to cross her path, she was someone you could turn to in both joy and hardship.
She carried the rare gift of listening with empathy, celebrating others’ triumphs, and offering support through challenges. Those who knew Jamie knew they could trust her, confide in her, and rely on her unwavering loyalty.
A Life of Energy and Vision
Jamie’s impact on White River Junction was unmistakable. While many may have first met her through her work in food service, Jamie proved time and again that she was so much more than a job title.
She carried herself with brilliance, authenticity, and determination, always reminding others that behind every role lies a whole person with dreams, struggles, and talents.
Anyone who spent time in downtown White River Junction likely encountered Jamie’s warm presence. She poured her creativity and passion into the community, running the candy shop affectionately named after her daughter, Ava, and bringing joy to countless families and visitors.
Many also knew her for her lively personality behind the bar at The Filling Station, where her humor, energy, and warmth left lasting impressions. Jamie was also an entrepreneur and dreamer. She constantly sought new opportunities to build, create, and bring people together.
The last time many friends saw her, she was filled with excitement about a tea room she was planning in town. Her vision extended beyond serving food or drinks—she wanted to create experiences, places where people could gather, laugh, and connect. Her enthusiasm was contagious, and she had a way of drawing others into her dreams with hope and joy.
A Hustler and a Heart of Gold
Those close to Jamie often described her as a hustler, a risk-taker, and a fighter. She was never afraid of hard work and carried herself with determination even when faced with challenges.
Life was not always easy for her, but she pushed forward with ambition and a firehouse of energy. She loved brass tacks conversations, enjoyed discussing new ideas, and never shied away from pursuing her goals.
But beyond her drive and ambition, Jamie was deeply kind and profoundly human. She was someone who could be trusted, someone who cared deeply, and someone who always reached for better—not just for herself, but for those she loved. Her daughter Ava was the light of her life, and Jamie’s pride in being her mother was evident in every conversation.
