Christian Siriano was one of the many friends who gave Jeremy a last goodbye on social media.

 

"He was one of my muses"

"He was one of my muses and he always will be," the designer said on Instagram. "He inspired me and I will love him forever. I’m sending all my love to his family and friends who lost someone so special. I know we will meet again one day but right now I just want to hug him."

Jeremy tattooed: 'I Will Never Die'

As a painful coincidence of fate, one of Jeremy Ruehlemann's most visible tattoos was the following phrase: 'I Will Never Die.' And he probably won't, in the hearts and memories of his loved ones.
