To the Svir Family,

My name is Michele and I knew Jeff through the internet where we had a great friendship for two years. He was a wonderful man and cared deeply for his friends and family. I enjoyed his inquisitiveness about everything; he really wanted to know what was happening in your life and I really enjoyed that. He will be missed deeply.

My dearest nephew, may you remember all the wonderful memories and activities with your father that will stay with you for a lifetime. He will remain with you always in spirit, as I too know what it is like loosing a father in your life. To my beloved sister, unfortunately relationships, even long term ones, due end but those happy times and a wonderful son between you two will always be with you as well. James and family, my sincere prayers and thoughts to you all as you work through this dark chapter but a bright light will emerge as he too will always be a part of you where ever you go. Blessings upon you all and prayers to you all.

To James & Family and Jason:
Just saw the obituary and my deepest sympathy for your loss. Knew him as a kid and a nicer, loving more gently man you could never find. He's at peace now with his mom and dad.
