Not sure what to say?

We all lose people as we get older, Jeff's one of the ones that sticks around that I can't get out of my head, when he would laugh, everyone would laugh uncontrollably mostly, Jeff laughed mostly at himself, it's such a rare trait to have. We're all skateboarders oh, Jeff taught us that that makes all of us better than the majority of humanity walking the Earth. Thank God for him, thank God for us.

RIP Mothra, a true lose to the world and skateboarding.

Ciao Jeff rest easy, greetings from Sardinia(Italy),you gave me one more spark in my life to make me go forward when I was feeling lost, plain, and without inspiration, sometimes that's what we need, a soul and brother we never met that only with the eco of his words can change somebody else's life for the better, thanks a lot for everything,what you left in 51 years of your life many people will not be able to do so in their entire lives, rest easy true legend!!!Look after all of us from up...

May your family find peace and serenity. Your family has gained a guardian angel. Fly high and rip on

Such a hero. He lived a wild life, took his lumps and bruises, but never turned a blind eye to the lessons along the way. Loveletters will always be such a gift to all of skateboarding. I only wish he was around to keep it going. Grosso, vert daddy, spreader of history and stoke. Gonna miss you in this world man. Much love and respect to the family. Keep making your old man proud Goo!
