Sincere condolences. Jeff was one of my all time favorites in every way as a young man and as a ball player. I will always remember him for his class both on and off the field and the great times we shared while I actually played with him in the Fall CBL Coaches League. Again, on behalf of my whole family my deepest regrets.
Sincerely,
Jack & Marlene Daly

Boyda Family,
The Entire Spedden family is deeply Saddened at your Loss.We all have wonderful Memories of "OUR" Children and the Great times we had together.But Nothing we can say will Fill your Void at this Time of Bereavement.I feel Compelled to Pass on a Message a Dear Friend left me!
"Miss Me,But Let Me GO!"
When I come to the End of the Road and the Sun has set on Me,I want no rites in a Gloom Filled Room,Why Cry for a soul set Free!Miss me a little, but not too Long,and not with your Head bowed low.Remember the Love that we Shared, MISS ME -BUT LET ME GO!
For this is a Journey that we all must take,And each most go alone.
It's all a Part of the Master's Plan,A Step on the road to Home.
When you are lonely and sick of Heart,Go to the Friends we Know.And Bury your sorrows in doing Good Deeds,
"MISS ME - But let me go".
The Preceeding was not easy to recall or write in this time of Saddness: OUR Families have Wonderful Memories of Jeff and we will Miss him very Much!

Jim and Family,

I'm deeply saddened to hear of Jeff's passing. He was a very mature and respectful young man from the time I met him and coached him at 13. He always had a smile on his face. Years later when I ran into him he was still the same old Jeff with the same old good guy smile. Heartfelt condolences on your loss.
