Hello, my name is Robert Niemeyer, I have been in the trades, HVAC, Plumbing and electrical most of my life. I have had the pleasure of meeting some incredible people over the years.

Almost 5 years ago, I met this young man wanting to get into the trades and he started in an electrical apprentice program but soon switched to plumbing apprentice. Jeronimo is now one of my lead plumbers.

Jeronimo met his incredible wife, Leslie, customer service manager and dispatcher at work. They’re awesome people for sure. Jeronimo & Leslie were blessed with little Jeronimo in May 2023, and like his parents, was born with an awesome personality.

Little J was born with quite a few complications which have made his life challenging, as well as his parents. He has spent many nights in the hospital and has needed 24-hour monitoring at home when he was allowed to be there, they have been incredible with doing this as young parents.

With great sadness and heartache Little Jeronimo had his first Christmas, but now has developed pneumonia, doctors say he will not likely make it to his first birthday, we hope and pray that this is not his time. Nothing can be put into words how this has affected their family, and his work family shares in the heartache.

We ask for any help, in the form of donations to help with medical, and living expenses, as you can imagine these add up over 7 months. Leslie had to leave work to care for Little J and Jeronimo has had to miss quite a few work days to drive them to the doctors, Little J can not be unattended.

So far in his small amount of time with us, Little J has left a huge impression on anyone blessed to be able to spend time with him. I was blessed with half a day with them in the ICU, where I was part of an incredible experience, trying to capture as much of him as we could with imprints and impressions, my heart will forever be changed by sharing in this incredible experience, with Little J, his mother Leslie and Jeronimo. Every child deserves that kind of love.
