Not sure what to say?

Reggy and Chessey I just learned of your loss and am heartbroken for you both. While I didn´t know Jeff well, I knew how much he cared and loved you both as evidenced by the love he gave cheering on and supporting Chessey and how he lit up being with you both. He was easy to talk to and always with a smile. Hugs and love to you both. Debbie Duvoisin

Among the mental health scene it is rare to see a professional who always has a smile and seems very energetic. Jeff would listen to a client when they had an issue. I´m aware of this happening apps four times. He never minimized someone´s perception no matter how unrealistic it might have been.

I went to school at Pullman with Jeff he was a wonderful guy and could play one great game of basketball. My Condolences to his family he will be missed by many.

Jeff Thomas was the rock of FBH.He successfully built a future for staff and clients and he was there for his employees.I have one opportunity to to know him and when I first met Jeff I immediately thought man, this guy will do what it takes to run FBH smoothly and I hope he would be the one that would take the agency for a ride. Staff and clients trusted him and he was a form of a saviour that came to build up agency that didn't a trusted person to help everyone..My condolences to his family...

Jeff was a decent human being of which there are far too few of in these times and now there is one less.

Jeff was always supportive and went out of his way to help staff succeed. He had a wonderful sense of humor, and I enjoyed the time that we had with him.

In loving memory of a wonderful person. We will love you and miss you always.

A true giant for Mental Health...working 10 yrs as the Director of Nursing Services at FBH with Jeff as CEO was an experience I will never forget..the dedication he had for the clients was second to none....my heart is sad......my sincere condolences to the family.

Jeff was one of my first Licensure Associates, worked briefly out of one of my first offices, and was a dear friend/colleague for years. So sad to hear of his early passing. He was the epitomy of a lovely and decent human being who has made a big contribution to our world...a short life, well lived. Condolences to family and friends. Love you, Jeff!
