Jeffrey Charles PughOctober 31, 1975- May 16, 2025
Saratoga Springs, NY – Jeffrey Charles Pugh passed away comfortably in the Saratoga Hospital ICU on Friday morning May 16, 2025. He was 49.
Best known for his compassion, kindness and humor; he never failed to put a smile on one’s face. His passions were a long open road ride on his Indian motorcycle and to buy, fix and resell cars and motorcycles. He loved wheeling and dealing and he held a special love of dogs.
After graduating from Saratoga High School, class of ‘93, Jeff went on to study mortuary science. His journey continued as private security at Jamesway, The Eddy Senior Living facility and eventually in the home of MaryLou Whitney. She adored Jeff as he did her.
Jeff started his own water testing business, Jeff Pugh LLC, as a NYS licensed Grade C water operator for public water distribution systems which he ran for almost 20 years and up to the time of his death. Jeff proudly serviced many area mobile home parks ensuring residents had safe water.
Jeff was predeceased by his father Paul Pugh Sr.; his uncle Fr. Neil Draves- Arpaia and his dearly loved “doggins” Dewd and Reggie.
He is survived by his mother Nadine Draves; brother Paul Pugh (Stacy); nephew Jordan and niece Julia; his sister Sarah Attanasio and niece Adelyn of Cobleskill.
This is Jeff’s message to all his family and friends:“I am at peace. I am free. I am where I need to be.We are all spiritual beings having a human experience.Thank you all for your love and kindness. Do not hold heavy hearts for me. Please celebrate my return to our true heavenly home.Eat, drink and be merry in memory of me. I will be with you in spirit. Look for the signs.Peace be with you.”Jeff
At his request, services will be private.
