Happy 21st Birthday, Jamis!

Posted on Author Daclaren Categories Family, Interviews, News, Pictures, Social Media No Comments on Happy 21st Birthday, Jamis!

Today’s the big one for Jamis DeKay – he turns 21 years old today! Happy Birthday, Jamis! Although things are pretty crazy right now, we hope you have an awesome day, and we’re wishing you happiness, success, and good health in the upcoming year and beyond!

Here’s the collage I posted on Instagram – you can leave your birthday wishes for Jamis there (he follows our account), or you can post them here if you don’t have an IG account, and we’ll pass them along!

Happy 21st Birthday, Jamis!! 🎉 This is a big one, and although things are crazy right now, we hope you have an awesome day. Wishing you happiness, success, and good health in the upcoming year and beyond! As someone over twice your age (😳), my advice as you cross that weird, arbitrary line into adulthood is this: keep a bit of childlike wonder with you always. It can help you find hope, even in difficult times. You're never too old to make a wish when you see a falling star or laugh about getting caught in a downpour or grin like a madman when you hear a great new song for the first time. Much love and respect! ❤️ (Stay tuned for more…) . . . #jamisdekay #happybirthdayjamis #birthdaywishes #21 #blendcollage #timdekay #elisadekay #dannadekay #teamdekay (Photos courtesy of the DeKay family and Lisa Van Hecke.)

I’ll be sharing a few other photos and videos on our IG stories throughout the day, including this one, which is from exactly 10 years ago today – on Jamis’ 11th birthday!

Jamis will be starting his sophomore year at Yale (remotely) in the fall, and hopefully we’ll have Covid under control by spring so he can get back to playing baseball for the Bulldogs!

We just got the go-ahead from Tim himself to let everyone know that he’s now on Cameo!

For those who don’t know, Cameo is a service where you can get personalized video messages from celebrities. (For example, you can request a video for a friend’s birthday or other special occasion.)

The cost for a video from Tim is $45, and a portion of the proceeds will go to PATH (People Assisting The Homeless), an organization which is helping to end homelessness in California by building affordable housing and offering support services.

If anyone gets a video from Tim, and you want us to share it here on the site, please contact us using the contact form or through one of our social media accounts!

Tim on The Pack Podcast, Take 3

Posted on Author Daclaren Categories News, Stage, Voice Work 1 Comment on Tim on The Pack Podcast, Take 3

For the second week in a row, we have a new episode of The Pack Podcast that features Tim’s voice work! This one is “Valet” and also features Cedric Yarbrough, Milo Manheim, and Dayle Reyfel.

This one centers on Phil’s (Milo Manheim) crazy first night at a new job with an oblivious boss and a front row seat to the theatrics of a couple in a nearby apartment. No spoilers here, so that’s all I’m going to say. (Bonus: Tim’s character’s name is Peter.) Let us know what you thought of “Valet” in the comments below!
