Hello my old friend Jeff,
its been awhile, but I still carry you in my memory . . . going to lunch at Birk's, meeting at the Embassy Suites for a quick beer and a chat, Diskcon and hitting Lina's in Milpitas. Thanks for spending time with me, I'll continue to carry it forward.

Your Wife, Julie Mack

June 10, 2024

It´s been 16 years since you left us. Our kids are all grown now and in their 20s. Daphne thrives in Philly and got a promotion at her summer job. Phoebe just graduated college with her bachelors. You have a college graduate! Philip is still in college studying statistics and economics and follows your lead. You would be cheering him on at his Ultimate Frisbee competitions. You would be so proud of all three of them and the humans that we created. They are wonderful people - and generous and kind. We think of you every day and love and miss you now and forever.

Dear Jeff,
it's been awhile, my old friend, but the memories are etched in my mind. Eating sushi, talking you into a beer after work, turning you on to Lina's in Milpitas (you became more of a regular than me!) and gaining 10 lbs. from it, running in to you at business functions and all the rest.

As always, thank you for showing me kindness and how to be kind, you always paid it forward.

Hi Jeff,
thanks for sharing your time with me. I remember the time we had lunch at Dave and Busters, getting in a little video game action before heading back to work. You are missed, but also REMEMBERED.

Thanks again, my old friend!

July 19, 2014

I miss you, Jeff. You were so great to your kids, you could see it in their eyes. Phoebe's eyes always sparkled when you called her, "Daddy's Little Girl."

I know that we will meet again, and until then, I cannot say goodbye. Because I do not believe in goodbyes. Goodbyes mean that I will never see you again, but I know that I will see you. So until that day, see you later.

Had your favorite dinner tonight, corned beef and cabbage, balloons on every chair, and your favorite dessert too, angel food cake. We shared stories around the table of good memories of you. Daphne shared of times at Dave & Busters, Phoebe shared of your time in San Francisco with her, and Philip shared your time at the SF Giants game and how you and he shared a giant chocolate chip cookie. I shared our first anniversary together at Auberge du Soleil in the Napa Valley. We miss you and will always hold you in our hearts. xo

In My Pocket

I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.

My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.

They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.

Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.

But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.

Eulogy delivered by Greg Finch at Darling & Fischer Mortuary, Campbell, CA on Saturday, June 14, 2008.

I met Jeff on June 7th, 1976. I had moved in across the street from his family. Jeff was always a planner. He and Jeff Skidmore thought that it would be easier to throw a tennis ball into my backyard and then ask to get it back then to just knock on the door and introduce themselves. After many failed attempts to actually get the ball into my backyard, I messed up their plan as they were mid toss as I walked out and met my new neighbor. Who would know at that time, we’d become lifelong friends.

Jeff and I hit it off immediately. There was a kinship that I can’t describe. Jeff and I always considered each other brothers. And like teenage brothers we had an occasional fight. I would chase Jeff into his house. Jeff was always quick to lock the door. He would stand at the window looking at me and then mouth back to me everything I was yelling at him. The more I yelled the more he moved his lips and laughed. The more he laughed, the angrier I would get. He would keep mocking me and laughing until I gave up. He always won because it was hard to stay mad at him.

Jeff always had that sinister, smug, smirk-filled, laugh. I think the creators of Dennis the Menace wish that they could have an actor that had that laugh. It was always a pleasure to hear it. The hardest I ever heard him laugh was when I was sitting innocently on the family room highback couch and their family cat; Scissors walked along the back of the couch and attacked my forehead without provocation. I think it was my startled reaction but he couldn’t stop laughing.

Jeff and I just had fun. Jeff always was the business man. During the oil crisis of 1979, when California was on gas restrictions, a line would form to the gas station. We sold toffee covered peanuts to the waiting motorist to help pay for our Yosemite YMCA camp. Even as adults we cherished the times we had growing up together.

Jeff and his family would move to Shingle Springs in the ninth grade but we stayed in-touch. And shortly after he graduated high school, Jeff came back down to visit me. As he started to leave that evening, my Mom asked that he wait until the morning to drive. He said sure and three months later my Mom noticed he still hadn’t left. Jeff started paying rent and lived with my family and me so that he could attend school and pursue his career. In 1987, Jeff and I would move out of the house to rent our own place. We lived together for the next couple of years.

It was during this time that I learned quite a bit about Jeff. Jeff loved to drive fast. He got this weird pleasure of watching me hit the passenger side imaginary brake as he constantly changed lanes, followed cars too closely and played an imaginary keyboard with both hands on the dashboard of his red Chevy Sprint while listening to his favorite music which was being played way too loud. There were many songs that he’d be playing the imaginary keyboard to and I’d tell him…”Dude, the song doesn’t have a keyboard.” He looked at me and laughed and kept playing the air keyboard.

Jeff loved listening to music. He also had no inhibitions about belting out the lyrics to his favorite songs. He was the William Hung of the 80’s. But he didn’t care because he was having fun.

In the late 80’s we introduced Julie and my wife Tonie into our lives. Things between us change. Not for the worse, they just change because of the time priorities associated with maintaining a family. We saw each other less but it was fine. Our conversations were never strained. Jeff and I could go a year without seeing each other and pick up where we left off. I could sit in a room with him and not worry about uncomfortable silence.

He wasn’t pretentious. Jeff liked material things, but not for him. We wanted the opportunity to share things with his family and friends. He was selfless. He loved planning parties for the Mack clan. He loved the neighborhood parties. Everyone was welcome. He loved to vacation with other friends and their families. He loved people. He was kind. I would venture to say that if you close your eyes and picture Jeff you will see a picture of him smiling.

Jeff is the only adolescent friend that I maintained into adulthood. I’m sure gonna miss him as will each and every one of you.

Many of us remember Jeff with a beer-We miss you!

Tom Mack

June 5, 2009

Eulogy delivered by Tom Mack at Darling & Fischer Mortuary, Campbell, CA on Saturday, June 14, 2008.

Good morning, my name is Tom. Most everyone calls me “Tom,” but to Jeff I was “Tommy” his little brother.

My big brother was confident, very sharp, accomplished, cocky, neurotic, obsessive, paranoid, stubborn, fun-loving, career and family focused. A father, brother, husband, son, friend. And an inspiration. After his family his great love was music. He loved; U2, INXS, Queen, all the 80’s rock. But, he kept up with the times; most recently I’ve received photos and video from him attending concerts with friends and with my brother Mike to see such bands as Def Leppard, Foreigner and the Foo Fighters. He was always sending photos of the latest events and concerts he had attended. We actually had sort of a game where we would send each other voicemails when we went to concerts. There would be no talking or message in the voicemail, just a recording of one of the songs. I remember getting a call on my cell phone in the middle of the night, wondering who would be calling me at that time? I’d check my phone in the morning and have a distorted, recording of the Scorpions singing “Still Loving You” over the noise of the crowd.

He attended many more concerts than I ever did. He always had the best seats. He has even been known to go to the same concert, like U2, two nights in a row.

Jeff loved to be in charge. He was always planning the next event. He loved to get together with people and was an incessant planner. Always planning ahead. He’d call me, as I am sure he would call some of you, with some idea like… “we should go to San Francisco for Dad’s birthday…” “We should get a bunch of RV’s together and go camping…” “we should have a surprise party for Mom’s 60th.” And, if he was able to get a little concurrence from the group, he would run with it. Planning all of the details. I’m not sure if my wife realizes, but he even helped me plan my wedding. Jeff was First Class all the way. Much to the dismay of those of us with lesser financial means. But, after the event, we would all agree that although it may have expensive it was a blast and something we would always remember. He was the kind of person who could always get you in the mood with a beer and cigar ready. He loved beer.

Jeff loved to show off and share his great successes with everyone. We all had to hear about his latest “toy” his vacations and his social events. But that was Jeff, and you expected that. Not really boasting. He would get excited about these things and in the process would make you excited about it, too.

Jeff was a giver. He gave GREAT gifts. In fact, he gave me this watch that I’m wearing. I always get compliments on it. While I was a poor college student, Jeff supplemented my beer fund by regularly sending me some money every month. In the Navy, whenever I went on 6 month, overseas deployments, Jeff was the one, by far, who sent me the most packages. That was his way of making you feel special; by having you share in his success. He loved to give.

We had our fights. But, they were always about family. Family was very important to him and he had very specific ideas on what the family should do. That was part of his controlling nature. If you didn’t see eye to eye with him that could get you in hot water, sometimes not speaking with you for extended periods of time. But, he would always come around sooner or later.

Jeff always looked out for me. I was his young protégé. And I always looked up to him. I wanted to be just like him. He was successful in the Silicon Valley technology sector. I have proudly told many friends and co-workers about the success of my big brother. Although I choose the Navy for my career, I always thought it would be cool to come work for Jeff someday when I got out of the military. We had sort of a competition going on when it came to higher-education. I think I beat him by a couple of months in getting my Bachelor’s Degree, but he beat me in getting his Master’s. In both cases, in his defense, he was holding down a day job and going to night classes to earn these degrees while I had the luxury of military scholarships and no other duties.

When my sister Kathy died 14 years ago, Jeff was the one who called and told me. He was the one who directed the family in the days afterward. In true character, he quickly took charge of the situation. When I learned of Jeff’s passing on Tuesday, for a moment, when you wonder what to do next, I actually thought about calling Jeff to find out what I should be doing. But, of course, I couldn’t. I thought to myself, what would Jeff do in this situation. And, it all was very clear. Drop everything, get on the next plane and fly out to San Jose. Fly out to be with family, offer support and to get support. That’s what Jeff would do. When crisis occurs, we all turn to family. Friends may come and go, but good friends and family are always there. I’ve always somewhat regretted that I didn’t speak at my sister’s funeral, and I did not want to let this happen again.

I will miss Jeff, but I think there are things we can learn from his example. Don’t be afraid to take charge. It’s okay to be proud of your accomplishments. Special events planned ahead are the best. And always put family and friends first.

Good bye, Jeff.
I love you and will miss you Big Brother.

Dear Julie,
Sorrow and sadness...there are no words to truly express how I feel about your loss. I was a classmate at Pepperdine with your beloved Jeff. I am sorry we never met in person as I feel through Jeff I knew you. Every time I was with Jeff he was quick to pull out a photo and proudly display his loving family. It was obvious he truly loved you Julie, and adored his children. This is not fair and truly only the good die young. I wish there was something I could do to relive your pain. Please know that he was loved by many and that many more around the world were proud to call him friend. His kind heart and genreous nature were a gift to the wide circle of people whose hearts he personally touched.
Prayers and Caring to you and yours...
Sincerely,
Tom Bolich

Julie,
I just learned of Jeff's passing and my heart goes out to you and your children. Jeff and I met professionally back in the early 90's and quickly developed a very strong friendship! We shared some great times from Singapore to California and I always enjoyed our time together. Jeff never failed to catch me up on how you and the kids were doing. I remember when you rented the motor home a few years ago and took that great family vacation! Jeff put together a full album of pictures from that trip and sent it to me online! He was so proud of the fun you all had and so proud of his family. It was fantastic to share his love of your family and always generated the biggest smile of his face when he would share what you all were doing! I will miss him dearly and forever keep all the great memories of his friendship near to my heart. My thoughts and prayers go out to you and all that knew and loved Jeff.
