I remember walking by Jeff's computer and noticing a photo of a small child. Jeff told me that this was his grandson and described him as a "pistol". It was obvious that Jeff was so proud of him.
Jeff was a true asset to the airborne instrumentation section and will be greatly missed.

Msgt. Westbrook was the type of person you wanted to be around. He always welcomed you with a loving smile. I always looked forward to being greeted by him when we used to work together in the Air Force. He was a good man and I know his smile will be just the same when the day comes that I will see him again in Heaven with our Heavenly Father.
