Jeremy V. Bergen

Jeremy V. Bergen, 42, of Boonville, passed away unexpectedly on Friday, September 13, 2013, at his home. Jeremy Von Bergen was born November 30, 1970 in Odessa, Texas, the son of Verlyn D. Bergen and Karen S. Martens. He came to Boonville from Phoenix, Ariz., about 17 years ago. He had worked for Nordyne for most of that time. Jeremy enjoyed the outdoors, as was obvious by the well kept yard at his home. Jeremy lived for his son, Aden. They were best friends and were very close as a father-son team who spent many hours of fun competing with video games and other activities. He had a special bond with his dog, Bear, who was well trained and protective of the family. He is survived by his parents of Jefferson City, Mo.; his son Aden of the home; and by his sister, Vonda Davis (Bob) of Holts Summit, Mo. Jeremy was preceded in death by his long time companion, Robin Hagen, in March of this year. Funeral services for Jeremy will be held at Davis Funeral Chapel at 11:00 a.m. on Tuesday, September 17, with Rev. Mel Eaton officiating. Visitation will be for one hour prior to the service from 10:00 a.m. until service time. Burial will take place at a later date in Walnut Grove Cemetery. Memorials are suggested to the Aden Bergen Savings Account. Friends may register online at: www.davisfuneralchapelboonville.com
