Great friends, bowler on occasion, a peer in a couple places of employment, and the love of his guitar.
Jeff enjoyed everyone he met and was able to start a conversation with anyone!
Just one of the nicest guys I have ever met. I will always miss the craziness in him and the many memories that were shared with him and his friends.
