Jeremy M. Brennen, 42, of Dresden, Ohio died Thursday evening, February 25, 2021 at his home
after a courageous battle with cancer.

Michael Brennen and was a 1996 graduate of Tri-Valley High School. He received his associate

Jeremy was extremely active in the community and Protestant by faith. In his youth, he was a
long-time member of 4-H, active in the Dresden United Methodist Church Youth Group and in
the TVHS German Club. Jeremy was a wonderful, but reluctant piano player. As an adult and
proud dad, he helped coach youth baseball, basketball, and was the “Commissioner” for Tri-
Valley Youth flag football. He was an avid sports fan, and loved going on family vacations.
