Jeffrey Foye Obituary

Jeffrey W. Foye

Newburgh, Ind.

Jeffrey W. Foye, age 58, of Newburgh, Indiana, died Monday, April 25, 2016, in Door County, Wisconsin.

Jeff was born November 11, 1957, in Cleveland, Ohio, to Charles W. and Johanna (Sluger) who preceded him in death. He grew up in Chardon, Ohio, until his family moved to Barrington, Illinois in 1972. He graduated, in 1976, from Barrington High School and in 1980, from the University of Evansville, with a Bachelor of Science degree in Finance where he was a member of Sigma Phi Epsilon fraternity. Affectionately known as "Skipper," he was devoted to Sig Ep and cherished his 40 year friendships with his close-knit group of brothers.

A beloved husband, father, brother, uncle and friend. Jeff's love and dedication to his family and friends will be greatly missed.

He is survived by his wife of 34 years, Cindy (Bland); two daughters, Courtney, of Louisville, Ky., and Caitlyn at Butler University, in Indianapolis; sister, Lisa Depies (Steve), of Phoenix, Ariz.; mother-in-law; sisters and brothers-in-law; one niece; four nephews; aunts; and cousins.

Jeff was a hard-working, dedicated family man. He loved his family and was a devoted father to his daughters who were the joy of his life. He was so proud of their accomplishments, and the way they lived their lives, with enthusiasm and passion for their interests and beliefs.

Those who knew Jeff know that the time he spent in Door County with family and a close group of friends were some of the happiest days of his life. He discovered his passion for Door County in high school while on family vacations with his best friend and later, best man at his wedding. Shortly after they were married, he introduced Cindy to the area, and thus began a shared passion and love for Door County that never stopped growing. Courtney and Caitlyn shared their parent's love of Door County and were already looking forward to their family trip this summer. He always had a cabin project he was working on, yet enjoyed the quiet and relaxing times on the deck overlooking Green Bay, and the peacefulness of a Door County Sunset. His family and friends are comforted knowing that he spent the last few hours of his life at his "Happy Place" opening the family cabin for the season.

Jeff was proud to have worked for the past 17 years as Senior V.P. Fixed Income Manager at Lynch & Associates in Newburgh, Indiana. He always felt a member of the Lynch family.

In honor of Jeff's life, A Celebration of Life Service will be held 4 p.m. Sunday, May 1, 2016, at Alexander Newburgh Chapel officiated by Alex Heister, Newburgh Young Life Area Director, with burial in Bethel Church Cemetery in Freelandville, Indiana, at a later date. Friends may visit 1 to 4 p.m. on Sunday at the funeral home.

Memorial contributions may be made to Young Life of Newburgh, 5088 S. Plaza Drive, Newburgh, IN 47630, or Young Life of Louisville, P.O. Box 5098, Louisville, KY 40255

Dear Cindy,
As I read UE Magazine I was shocked and saddened to see Jeff's name in the memorial section. We were in Nursing School together and I remember you and Jeff as you were planning your wedding. You and your girls have my heart felt condolences. I hope that whatever helps you heal, you will find it in abundance.
Sincerely, Julie (Reibel) Arafeh

I was very sorry to hear of Jeff's passing. Jeff was an extremely kind man, and a friend to everyone....even to a rookie portfolio manager 30+ years ago. I will never forget his patience and friendship during those early years at ONB. Although a family obligation prevents me from attending today's celebration of life for Jeff, please know that all of you are in my thoughts and prayers. He will be missed.

Cindy, Courtney and Caitlyn,

My husband, Matt and I offer deepest sympathy and prayers to you, Cindy, Courtney, Caitlyn, and to Jeff's other loved ones. We will miss a very special guy we were so blessed to know. When we saw Jeff in the "happy place" we share, Door County, and last year in Evansville, his face lit up with pride telling us about his beloved family.
