Jeremy was a 12-year-old boy with learning disabilities in his teacher Doris Miller's second grade class. Doris found Jeremy frustrating to teach and believed he belonged in a special school. However, his parents did not want to remove him. During an Easter lesson, Doris gave each student an egg to bring back filled with something representing new life. Jeremy returned his empty, but was able to explain that Jesus' tomb was empty after his resurrection, surprising and deeply moving Doris. Jeremy later died, but 19 empty eggs were placed on his casket in tribute.
