We lost a very good man. He touched our hearts and always knew how to make us smile. Even if you met Jeff for the first time he made you feel as if you knew him for years. He accepted everyone no matter what. Our deepest condolences go out to his family and friends as we understand how tough of a time this is for everyone and we are so sorry. He will be greatly missed by many and will never be forgotten. From relationship to friend he had our hearts and we will never let go of that. We know he is watching over us and that allows us to keep living each day forward. We cherish the time spent and memories created with Jeff and we will remember him forever. We love you Jeff and heaven is lucky to have you. You are safe now. We know eventually we will be together again, so it's not good bye, it's see you later!

Jeff's family and close friends,

We are deeply sorry for the loss of Jeffrey. He was an amazing individual that always knew how to make anyone have a better day. For people who met him for the first time felt as if they had known him for years. Jeff had an incredible personality and kind heart. We will always love him as our dear friend and he will be in our hearts forever. We miss him, our hearts ache, but Jeff's spirit will constantly surround us and that helps us live each day forward. We know you are protecting us and we thank you for the time spent with you. We love you, and thank you again for showing us the true meaning of how to love one another and enjoy life as best as you can.

My thoughts and prayers are with the Grimm family during this time. Jeff was an amazing guy, and like a big brother to me! I was also just at a movie with him the 22nd and can't believe he isn't coming back to give me one more big hug. The amount of comfort and happiness Jeff brought to me is unbelievable. I love you Jeffy :)

Jeff and Angie and Steven-my heart has ached; my thoughts & prayers have been focused on you, Jeff (Jr.) and his family & friends since Garett (Nikki's friend) asked me on Saturday morning to say a prayer for Jeff. I am distraught by Jeff's passing and yet I know I cannot imagine the grief you are experiencing. I can only hope and pray that you receive the comfort our Lord offers, that you have a large and strong support group of close family and friends to “carry” you through whatever you need, and that the memories of Jeff warm your heart and bring a smile to your face as they have for so many others he has touched in the brief time he was with us. Kara (Mortensen) will never forget their first “date” in 2nd grade – the picnic on top of the Heritage Park sled hill-so sweet! We may never understand “why” this happened, but know that God cherishes & loves you all – (Garett & Kara Mortensen's mother)
