Stories about those days. | Jamie Livingston: some photos of that day

The stories that people have about Jamie’s photos are a source of amazement. Some are of the “that’s me and we were doing this” type of stories from Jamie’s friends. Some are the “I never met Jamie but this was taken on my birthday and it means a lot to me. And some are just stunningly moving one of a kind stories.

Pretty cool… Jamie was snapping Polaroids and I was joining the US Army in Anchorage, Alaska, nearly 25yrs ago. I don’t even recall it being a Tuesday. Thanks for the reminder!

You asked me to tell you a story, so here it is. One day, a friend and I deciddd to go fishing, even though we hadn’t done it in a few years. On our first cast, my friend lost his hook, on the second one, I lost my Bobber. On the third one, my friend bobber hit the ground and shattered. The forth one found our lines tangled and the fifth one ended up being eaten by a fish. Instead of a sixth cast we went home and played a fishing game on the computer.
May God bless you all Andrew Hersey

You probably get this one a lot, but this was the day I was born. My mom used to tell me about this day and she would say that it was one of the calmest, greatest days of her life. I was born at 8:56 pm, entering the world to meet my mom and dad, one doctor and one nurse. My parents were in a rough patch of their relationship but this was something that brought them together, no fighting or arguing. It was a clear, cool night and luckily I was completely healthy and slept the whole night.
Now I can’t see much of this picture but it looks like calm and is fitting for how I spent the first day of my life.
I love what this website has done for Jamie, I imagine through his work that he was a great man.

This is my birthday. Ironically I love the water. I will either be playing in it like the kids or just soaking like Jaime, assuming those are his feet. This is an incredible way to watch the passage of time. Thank you for putting these up.

On this day last year I found out I had a brain lesion. I would go in for surgery a month later.

I’m sorry you’re gone Jamie.

From Kim on 10-24-97

I hope you’re doing o.k. Codie Petersen. I have gone through about the last 6 months of these pictures and I must say coming to this page is just heartbreaking you don’t want the pictures to end, his life to end. He was such a handsome man and I hope his wife is doing o.k.

I was born this year in July and 28 years later on this day I had brain surgery for a brain lesion which I at the time thought was a tumor but it was instead a cavernous malformation. Even though Jamie didn’t make it, I gauruntee having his friends there with him helped him more than you know. If he never got a chance to thank you I will for him.

I know at least how hard the surgery and news is to deal with and how much family and freinds being there for me made a difference.

So for Jamie with love, if he didn’t get to say it himself, Thanks for the love guys.

I’m sure this memorial would have made his heart melt.
