With fond remembrace of Attila our comrade at the 470th you did us proud. your legacy intact as The Bridge of the Americas, still spans the Panama Canal. Good work buddy.

Dear Karen,
I was so sorry to hear about Jeff. Although we haven't been in touch in many years I knew you were happy with him and so I was saddened to hear of his death.

Jeff
You were good and kind to me and I will remember

Where are you, Jeff? You've gone, but I can still hear your marvelous voice! That laugh! You charmed everyone! We had so much in common. You even introduced me to the love of my life, my wife, at your place on Beacon Hill, up the street from our favorite store, Drugs and Spirits. You'll live on in my heart, Jeff. I miss you so much.

-Allen

When I was first introduced to Jeff, what I remember most about him, was how devoted he was to Karen. I knew that this would be a winning combination from the beginning, and it was a pleasure to watch their relationship grow over the years. Although I moved out of Chicago shortly after they wed, whenever I came in to visit, both of them always went out of their way to make my time with them feel special. I always appreciated Jeff's humor, and the way you could just hang out with him, and...

Dear Karen: Jeff will always be remembered with my love. He married Donna, my life-long best friend, back in the 70's. He introduced me to my husband, Allen, back in the early 80's. You and Jeff married in the mid/late 80's. Meeting you was a pleasure. I was happy for you both. My feelings were always open to Jeff. I found him to be truly unique, always a friend. I miss him and thank you for this opportunity to tribute Jeff's life.

I'm glad for the time he was my son-in-law!
