I am saddened by Jeff's untimely death and my heart bleeds at the thought of your loss. It was only a few days ago that Carter and Scott were here for a visit and I asked about you and Jeff. I enjoyed working with him as my bank manager. I will keep all of you in my prayers.

Dear Mr and Mrs Coley, Freda, Liz, J, Tim, Lisa, Madeline,Amelia and Julian,
We just heard the news of Jeff's passing. We have been on vacation and were out of contact with family. We loved Jeff for being such a special friend to us and for taking care of us several times to make our lives so much better. He was and will always be considered a "southern gentleman", just like his Daddy and brother, to us. May God's love surround you today and over the coming weeks. We love you all...

I worked with Jeff many years ago at Griffin's 88. Jeff was such a kind and caring person. He treated everyone the same....I will remember him with a smile and the love he had for Freda that many years ago. My prayers are for the Lord to comfort your aching hearts.
