Jeremy Lee Knifley, 38, passed away unexpectedly on July 25, 2022. Jeremy was born in Gretna, Louisiana to the Scott Alan Johnson and Cecilia Jean Wille Knifley. Jeremy was a tower climber by trade and loved music, especially instrumental. Music was a place of peace, just as being in the sky on a tower where he took in the beauty of the land, sunrises and sunsets. He often referred to this experience as "his office view". He was an awesome cook, a self proclaimed computer geek, and a loving brother. His huge smile matched his child-like heart; a loving soul to everyone he met. His belief in God allowed him to see the good in all people and he was willing to sacrifice to help those in need. He had a larger than life personality, great sense of humor, and was forgiving to a fault. His mother often shared..."You will always be perfect to me"
