Not sure what to say?

Jeff has been in my life for many years, I always saw Betty and him at the market, and also another place where he helped those around him. He was a great guy, with great work ethic. Loved his time up north, when he could get it. I of course saw him mostly at the market and miss his mom and Jerry there. However, I went today, he was the only thing I thought about. It takes a few weeks to process loss. This is one young man who will be missed!

I learned today of Jeff's passing and want to offer a hug from the heart and express how grateful we are for him and his work. He was always a friendly face to my boys and I at the farmer's market and we LOVED the fruit (literally) of his labor. He will be missed. Dykstra farm's presence will be (is) missed at the farmer's market. God bless you, Betty and Family.

I would like to express my sympathy to Jeff’s mother, Betty. I got to know her at the market, and one time when making a hospice visit to a friend or relative of hers, she was there. I am so sorry, Betty! It was not very long ago that you lost your husband, and now your son too! That is a tremendous amount of grief all at the same time. May God hold you close, and give you comfort and peace! I miss your smiling face at the market! God bless. Jan

So sorry for your loss, Joe and Sherry, time will heal your .

Wish I could have been in Michigan. I will miss Jeff even though I did not get to see him often enough.

Betty,
We were sadden to read of Jeff's passing after he had fought so hard. We will be praying for you.
We always enjoyed stopping by your stand at Fulton Street to buy items and to let you know we were praying for Jeff and you.
