I want to sincerely thank the Hoffman Brothers and the entire Hoffman staff for all their support and generosity during this difficult time. Words cannot express how much it means to our family to know how much Jeff was loved by all. Jeff lived life to the fullest and I know he wouldn't want us to cry at his passing. He would want us to remember him as someone who brought light and laughter to our lives. He would want us to share good memories and smile. Thank you for the amazing tribute you shared in the Hartford Courant. Jeff would have been so proud.

Stunned to find out today about Jeff's passing. Had memorable times with him mostly during 1993-2001. Jeff had a big heart and will never forget the times we spent together; especially working with him, Amy, and Al at Aetna. Thanks for those times and am now happy you got to see the Sox win the WS twice. My prayers and deepest condolences. Love always, Brian.

Rita, I cant begin to tell you how sad my wife Donna and I were to learn this morning of Jeff's unexpected and untimely passing. We worked together at Axia Services, and the tribute by the Hoffman Group that appeared in today's Courant very accurately describes our former co-worker. Our hearts go out to you. Sincerest condolences to you and your family.

I've only known Jeff for five months, and
it was a pleasure working with him at Hoffman Auto.
Jeff was always making people laugh, and took care of all their technical issues.
He will be missed.
With deepest sympathy-

Dear Schmidt Family, I want to express my deepest condolences to all of you during this very difficult time. I didn't know Jeff very well but throughout the years, I did see him and his daughters during the holidays and I could easily tell just how proud he was of his girls. He was a good guy with a great sense of humor and he will be missed. Sincerely, Marie Trela
