Hi honey, it seems like these anniversaries get harder and harder. 7 years is a long time to miss someone, talk to someone, hold someone. If only I could have one more of all of those. Most days life goes on, but there are some days where missing you consumes me. I am still so angry our story was cut short. I do find solace in the memories I have. You truly made me laugh every day. I really miss that and I miss you. I love you Jeff, give hugs to everyone and tell the girls that momma loves and misses them too.

My work person (Lisa) and Jacob the rest of jeffs family but especially lisa my heart is breaking for you I cannot say the right words or figure out how to fix this for you though I would give anything if I could.. We've had many discussions about oour better halves and feel they are very similar in their ways never did I think jeff would meet the fate he did and no longer be by your side I am still in disbelief ...I pray for you to find some peace and strength through this unimaginable difficult time I will be there for you in any way possible that I can be I know you won't ask but my heart and thoughts are with you and your family....:( my deepest sympathies...xo

My dear Jeffrey, I cannot begin to put into words what I want to say. I can't believe your gone. You are such an important part of my life. I don't know what to do. My strength has left me. My life without you here is never going to be the same. I love you so much. RIP babe.
