So saddened to just now hear of Jeff’s passing. He was always kind to us, his younger sister Angie’s high school girlfriends. I’m certain there must have been times when he wished we would all go home so he could finally get some peace & quite. If so, he never showed it. I just always remember his beautiful welcoming smile.

Sandlot baseball at recess in public school, Sunday pick up football at Woodhaven Park, weekend card games at the house with the guys. Cottage getaways, a visit to Hilton Head and even the ski trip to Vermont in the blue Civic during a white out! All this bring back a flood of great memories of a true friend with the biggest smile and most infectious laugh of anyone I have ever known. We lost touch but make no mistake, you will be thought of often by many who knew you. I pray for your family I never had the opportunity to meet, and my thoughts are with all of you during this most difficult time. Rest easy Jeffrey.

I am saddened to hear of Jeff leaving us so soon. Jeff's mother Laurie and her family had also been a special part of my life. I will always remember Jeff wearing his cowboy hat and blasting Marshal Tucker tunes in the basement. Of course Harris was calmly watching t.v. in the adjacent room. These and other memories will last forever.

Sydney,

Your dad and I have known each other for what seems like ever. You wouldn't remember but we saw you when you were small and so beautiful.

Your dad was a fun guy, who loved golf just like we do and he will be sorely missed. Our thoughts and hopes for the future are with you.

I AM NOT THERE

Do not stand at my grave and weep;
I am not there. I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow.
I am the diamond glints on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
I am the gentle autumn's rain.
When you awaken in the morning's hush,
I am the swift uplifting rush
of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry;
I am not there, I did not die.
