Take care, buddy. I enjoyed all our chats. Until I went into your shop the first time, I had never before actually looked forward to taking my vehicles in to get work done.

I wish you the best in this tough time, Tina.

It is so hard to believe that you are gone....my favorite memory of you comes at a very young age for me, I think I was like ten or eleven. You (Jeff) brought home a mini bike for me. I loved it!! I remember coming home from school and couldn't wait to ride it....he kept it gassed up for me....sometimes Ricky would beat me to it, lol.....he was more than a brother, he was a friend. I love you so very much Jeff, and miss you more!

To My First Love,
"THANK YOU" for all the happy memories. "THANK YOU" for giving me two beautiful, strong, independent children. "THANK YOU" for making me the woman that I have become, because of our youth, expierences, growth, gains and loses. My heart aches and asks why?
My promise to you (and myself) is to continue on with the raising and guidance of our children. And to always tell our grand-children stories of what kind of man you were.
I love you and miss you deeply,

I do not know Jeffs family or many of his friends but I wanted to send my most heart felt sympathy to you all. I worked with Jeff from 1997-2000 at Lee Isuzu. He took me under his wing and taught me a lot about cars and life in general. Allthough I have not seen him in nearly 10 years, this is a devastating loss to me too. He was a good man and he will be missed allways.

A tragic loss. Still stunned that we're speaking in past tense about Jeff. Since the early '90s we were privileged to have him as our friend. He was always willing to go out of his way to help Kelly & I when our vehicles required his expertise. I remember a sign that hung at his garage that read:
Auto Repair Fee - $20 per hour, $25 if you watch, $50 if you ask questions & $200 if you messed it up trying to fix it yourself. We'll always have fond memories of you Jeff.

For all who have left this world in need of Your divine mercy, eternal rest grant unto them Lord & let perpetual light shine upon them. May Jeff's soul & the souls of all the faithful departed through the mercy of God rest in peace. Amen.

As a fellow mechanic, there aren't very many people I know that are great mechanics and honest. Jeff was just that and I noticed that every time I was around him, I learned something new. What a huge loss, in so many ways.
In any way I can help, I will. He would do it for us! He might be gone, but he will never be forgotten
