Jaime had a brilliant mind, was high-spirited, spontaneous, and had an outgoing personality, with a big heart who was always willing to help or support those in need. She was an activist for causes she believed in and always donated time or money to her causes, and to those of friends and family.

She loved swimming and swam with dolphins and manatees in Florida and Hawaii, took a cruise to Alaska, and loved spending time at the ocean with her family. She loved all things music, having been to hundreds of concerts with one of last shows being Willie Nelson’s 90th birthday. Jaime was a devoted “Burner” having attended Burning Man for many, many years, in Black Rock City where she met many lifelong friends whose friendships she loved and cherished.
