Jayme grew up in Dyersville, Iowa. He attended Western Dubuque High School and went to UNI for 1 year before returning home to work at the family business, Wholesale Meats and Processing. In 2009, he and Dawn purchased the locker from his parents. Jayme was an avid Hawkeye fan, often comparing the first football game of the season to the feeling of a kid on Christmas morning. His infectious smile and vibrant personality brightened the world of everyone who knew him. He fiercely loved Dawn and the boys and was also an amazing son, brother, uncle, and friend.

Jayme is survived by his wife, Dawn; sons: Landon and Cohen; his mom, Lois Bries; siblings: Pamela (Peter) Durin, Kurt Bries; parent-in-laws, Dale and Jody Domeyer; siblings-in-law: Todd (Tina) Domeyer, Shawna Domeyer, Doug Domeyer, Tony (Sami) Domeyer; and 12 nieces and nephews.
