Jeff and I were classmates at Our Lady of Lourdes class of 1976 and my Mother just called me to tell me of Jeff's passing.
I am stunned to say the least!
My Mom was good friends with Mrs Krauszer and I'll never forget our 8th grade/Parents basketball game where after the game, Jeff, Mr Krauszer, my younger Sister, my Dad, and I went out to New Brunswick for pizza, beers for the Dad's and soda for us!
RIP Jeff and of course Mr and Mrs Krauszer.

Nancy, Tara Kurt, George and Debbie - As a childhood friend from so long ago, my deepest condolences on Jeff's passing.
As teenagers growing up in East Brunswick, we had a lot of fun playing tennis and hanging out. I rembmer Jeff as a really funny guy and a good all around person.
I remember it like it was yesterday Jeff, Chris Turner and I being at tennis camp up in Blairstown. For me, it helped a lot to have a friend like Jeff there to share the experience of sleepaway camp. Great memories.
Nancy - I know this journey has been so difficult, but know his suffering has ended and Jeff has eternal life.
And make sure Jeff's kids know he touched so many lives in a positive way.
He certainly did touch mine and I'll always be grateful for it.
God bless and keep you all.
RIP Jeff.

Dear Krauszer Family:
It was with heartfelt sadness that I read about Jeff's passing. I was fortunate to have known him while he was a student at St. Peter's High School. I coached Jeff on the freshmen basketball team and also had him in my History class. It was a pleasure to have known this fine young man as both a student and athlete. Please accept my sincere sympathy and condolences on your family's loss.

Dear Nancy
My heartfelt sympathy to you and your family. My name is Mary Ann (DeAmicis) McGowan & my parents lived at 114 Squan Beach Dr. I had a brain tumor in 1996 so I totally related to Jeff. Everytime, I went by your home & saw Jeff, I stopped to talk & tried to be encouraging. He was a wonderful person and so easy to talk to. He will be missed.

Dear Nancy, Tara C., George J. II, Kurt L. and Cousin Debbie: I am so sorry to hear about Jeff's passing. It truly touches me deeply and it is so hard to lose a family member. As kids, we all spent a lot of time celebrating together - setting woods on fire on the 4th, spending time at Grandmom Krauszer's house playing pinball, honoring family birthdays and anniversaries... Today, we must choose to celebrate Jeff's life on earth as well as rejoice with him as he embraces eternal life with his Savior! I am sorry that I am not there in person, but I am there with prayers for all our families to be able to find comfort and peace in God - the One Jeff served faithfully. Love you all. Barbara

Warm summer sun,
Shine kindly here,
Warm southern wind,
Blow softly here.

Lie light, lie light.
Good night, dear heart,
Good night, good night.
