Jami Perez Obituary (1988 - 2026)

In Loving Memory of Jami Lyn Perez June 25, 1988 – March 27, 2026 Jami Lyn Perez, age 37, passed away on March 27, 2026. Born to Roger Perez and Cynthia Hartz, Jami lived a life full of authenticity, laughter, and deep connection with those around her. She was deeply loved by her dad, Roger, and stepmom, Tina. She is preceded in death by her brother, Zach Johnson. Jami was a beloved daughter, sister, niece, and a proud new aunt to Karson Vanderslice. She shared a special bond with her brother Tyler, who was her closest companion through life. Her cousin Ian was more like her big brother, always protecting each other. They fought like siblings but loved each other to the end of time. Her relationship with her mother, Cynthia, was one of both best friend and fiercest honesty—filled with love, laughter, and realness that defined their connection. Known for her silly spirit and vibrant personality, Jami brought joy wherever she went. She loved to create, write, and dance—especially with her cousins, siblings, and her mom—creating moments that will be cherished forever. Her authenticity made her unforgettable, and her ability to make friends was unmatched; she truly had more friends than she could count. Jami’s presence will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved her, but her spirit will live on in the laughter, memories, and love she shared so freely. Forever loved, never forgotten. We will celebrate Jami’s life on Sunday, April 19th, from noon to 4 pm at the Indian Center in Lincoln, NE.
