Jeffery Scott Courtier

I had the privilege of being taught by Mr. Courtier for 3 years of drama and 2 years of English. He was one of my favorite teachers of all time. We laughed a lot in his class, but we also learned a lot. I will forever treasure the memories I have of him...

My heart-felt sympathies to you and your families! Wow, I just can't believe he isn't here anymore! What a man of integrity, honor, wisdom, and compassion! I learned a lot from him! A truly inspired Bishop as well -- my Bishop! He will live forever in my heart and mind! I so very sorry that I wasn't able to be at the funeral! We love you all! God bless!

Rest in Peace Mr. Courtier. I had the honor to learn from you for 4 short years. Thank you.

I am eternally grateful to Jeff Courtier for the many lessons he taught my daughter Jacey. It was an honor and privilege to teach with Jeff, and a true gift to have him as my daughter's teacher. If teaching was the only thing Jeff ever did (and we know it wasn't) it will be the greatest thing he ever did. He will live on forever through his many students. Thank you, thank you for sharing him with us.

Our deepest sympathy to the Courtier family. It was an honor and pleasant experience to serve with Brother Courtier in the Mountain Shadows Ward. Jeff was alwaya concerned about the well-being of others

I worked at WPHS with Jeff for 6 years & found him to be a dedicated professional, but more important to me than that, he was an inspiring teacher for my sons Seth & Josh Bate. Blessings & gratitude, Jeff.

My name is Larry Knott, Jeff was my teacher in Woodland Park High school. School was easy for me and I had good grades. Then I met Mr. Courtier. Within a couple of weeks in his class I was getting C's and D's on some of my papers. I compared them with others in my class, and mine were better than the others getting A's. I asked Jeff why he didn't like me. He said he did like me but I had a talent for writing and he was grading me on the effort I was applying,and that I could do much better....

Jeff Courtier was many things, mentor, teacher, actor and motivator. He was my homeroom/English teacher freshman year and drama and forensics coach for all four years. He had a gift to bring out the best in his students, helping those who thought they were too shy to excel in drama or forensics to become actors and speakers. I know that my ability to communicate was greatly formed by this wonderful man, for that I will be forever grateful. Every time I step behind a podium to moderate a...
