JEFFREY FEDEN

With deep sadness we announce the passing of Jeffrey Ronald Feden, age 45 on August 14, 2025.

Jeff was born to Cheryl & Ronald Feden on November 12, 1979 in Thunder Bay, ON. Survived by his Mother Cheryl Feden, Sister Laura Hakala, Nephew Jordan Feden whom he nicknamed "Kiddo", Brother Randy Feden (Vanessa Mclaughlin, Cole Baxter), Aunt, Uncle Brenda & Allen Wilhelm, Uncle Robert Wilhelm, Cousin John (Jolene) Wilhelm & numerous cousins, friends and his faithful loving dog Max.

Jeff grew up in Gorham Township and was a Country Boy at heart. He attended Gorham & Ware Elementary School and Hillcrest High School. After graduation Jeff completed an Auto Mechanics Apprenticeship at Confederation College. Then joined the workforce at D&M Automotive, Narvi's Auto and most recently Pinewood Ford. Jeff was a well respected Mechanic and a hard worker. No job was too big or too small, he may not have liked some of the repairs that were sent his way but never complained.

Jeff loved the outdoors camping, fishing, quadding and snowmobiling. He had a smile and laugh that would light the room and will be sadly missed. He was passionate about music, from Ozzy Osbourne, Motorhead to Waylon Jennings and Hank Williams Jr.

Jeff would spend time with his Brother Randy and friends in Randy's garage listening to music and watching videos and having the odd beer. Recently Uncle Jeff spent time helping Jordan get his first truck ready for a safety, Uncle Jeff was a good mentor to Jordan and always said "either it's right or it's wrong, no junk leaves the shop".

Jeff had a special bond with his Cousin John Wilhelm, whom he grew up with. Cousin John would come out to the "Feden Farm" frequently during their childhood. There was always something to do, motorbiking, snowmobiling on the pond, pulling a tube around or making a skating rink.

Jeff was predeceased by his Father Ronald Feden, Grandfather Paul Feden, Grandmother Janet Feden, Grandfather Urho Wilhelm and Grandmother Anio Wihelm.

A Celebration of Life will be held for Jeff at 1395 Hazelwood Drive, September 6, 2025 starting at 1 pm.

In lieu of flowers donations can be to the Thunder Bay Humane Society.

Arrangements have been entrusted to Simpler Times Cremation Centre, 575 Central Avenue, Thunder Bay.
