What a terrific human being who stepped up to help the helpless and their families. Countless children and parents were comforted by this soldier of humanity and kindness. If only we had more people like you, who always made me want to open my heart and mind to the suffering and sick; you brightened us even with your smile and I will carry on in your memory.

May you be at peace, free from suffering. May all those who loved you recognize that the depth of their suffering is the measure of the connection you shared. May each person in whom you have planted seeds of compassion, generosity, and kindness nurture those seeds to full flowering in their lives and in the lives of those whom they touch.

Jeff, you were a “Guardian Angel” to the kids at the Ronald McDonald House. You lit up the house with your love and never-ending compassion. I was in awe as you shared your acts of kindness and heartfelt concern and commitment with the kids and their families. You were an inspiration and a true role model for all of us whose lives you touched; we were blessed to know you.
I am heartbroken, but I will always remember the fun we had playing golf, and more importantly, I will remember your selfless and immeasurable charitable acts of kindness. Heaven just got a one in a Billion Angel.
Jeff's pain is gone, and now it is our turn to deal with the sorrow.

"Fallen"
Rest now my fallen brother
Lay soft your suffering back
Rest well and forever
Your memory shall not lack
Rest your tired hands
Wipe clean your weary brow
Rest with St. Florian
Your spirit now endowed
Rest here your breaking heart
We know you gave your all
Rest easy, you've done your part
You've answered your last call
Rest knowing that in god we sought
Oh lord, watch over another who just fell
Rest assured your troubled thought
As we ring the final bell.

Jef,
I remember when it was just you and me and the girls in the Trolley Barn. Both artists, passionate about mosaics and sharing our knowledge on the art form. Whether we were borrowing tools from each other or sharing our latest project ideas, we were fellow artists, neighbors and friends. Neither I nor the girls will forget you and all that you accomplished. Your spirit lives on and your endeavors are testimony to your courage and truth. Your army marches on!
