Not sure what to say?

Jeffrey was not only one of my best co workers, he was one of my best friends. I’ll never forget all of the long talks and laughs. Jeffrey had the best advice and was always there when I just needed someone to listen, it doesn’t matter what I was going through he always knew exactly what to say to make me smile. I am truly going to miss our friendship, Jeffrey was one of a kind, I will never forget you! ❤

Very surprised to hear of Jeff's passing, not surprising are the lovely comments attributed to his insight and character. Many of us are not long forgotten when we depart our station but our fond memory's of Jeff will always be fresh.

Jeff was the best co-worker and friend. He had such a big heart; was so friendly to everyone and had the best laugh. We shared music artists/genres with each other and we both loved to listen to Billy Strings. He liked to try to explain music theory to me and sometimes I even understood it. Whenever we were cleaning an area of the Museum together Jeff would hum along with his music. It was so nice to hear; calming and soothing. I'm glad I told him that and will really miss it. We discussed...

To say that I am devastated would be an understatement. Jeff was a friendly face I always looked forward to seeing when I walked the halls of The Henry Ford museum. I'd stop and chat with him every chance I could; he would give me updates on the book he was writing, and once showed me some of his drawings. He was sweet, intelligent, creative, and had a wonderful smile, and an infectious laugh. Jeff would always give me a wave when I spotted him, and a hug whenever I asked. The world feels...

Jeff was so quiet and dedication his work. May he be dancing in heaven with joy.

Jeff was also so kind. Waving and saying hello whenever we passed each other in the hallway. He will be missed and my heart goes out to his family and friends.

I always passed by Jeff on his usual route through the jewelry aisle. I would either wave or say hi. It feels very absent in our part of the museum now.

It's very hard for me to believe that Jeff and I will never cross paths at The Henry Ford again. Talking to him during my shifts was always a pleasure. What a funny, kind, sweet soul. You will be missed dearly. Rest easy.

I will miss Jeff's greetings when I walk down the hall of Henry Ford Museum. He was always friendly and kind - a familiar face I looked forward to seeing. My condolences to Jeff's family, friends and colleagues. He will be missed by all of us!
