Not sure what to say?

We are so very sad to hear about Jeff. I have so fond memories of Jeff, but the one I will share is this one. Our son, Tim, had testicular cancer. I had one day to get papers to the State of Maryland so he would have health insurance coverage. Jeff jumped into action and had the papers delivered by Zoom in Baltimore. I will never forget that kind jester. Johanna and family, keep his memories close to your heart. I have lost your contact number. Please call me Jennifer Hough. 240-888-2125

I´m so sorry to hear this news. Jeff and I were in the same men´s dorm at Shepherd U., class of `73. I could ramble on about the good times. He was always a positive bright light in the room and we were all better people having known him. My prayers to his family for their loss.

This is very touching to read about my friend and fellow Shepherd grad. I know what the family must have been through as my wife has had a BMT forAML/MRC leukemia. She´s fortunately doing well. I will always remember the Homecoming Jeff came to with a daughter. He was walking steadily with a cane. My condolences and prayers for all the family and friends.

Jeffrey was a great guy in college. We were on the swim team together and he was a lot of fun

My Nana was a first cousin to Jeff's Grandfather, on his dad's side (Lew Glazer) .... Our family took several trips to the DC area to visit at Thanksgiving time in the 1950s .... I spent a week with them after graduating High School in 1969 - a memorable week where i got to see just how terrific an athlete and person that Jeff was.... I mourn his passing while admiring his courage and love of life! May his memory be a blessing for all who knew and loved him.

Jeffrey was a great competitor. I remember in junior high in Kensington we had a special wrestling night for parents and friends. I was scheduled to wrestle him and I don´t think I slept the entire week worrying about it. The night came and somehow we wrestled to a draw which for me was a great victory. He probably wasn´t as happy ! My greatest memory though was the smile and sense of humor he had.

Jeff was one of the most modest and good-natured guys I´ve ever known, which was especially remarkable considering what a naturally talented athlete he was-a three-letter man at our high school, if I recall correctly. My conversation with him and Johanna at our 40th reunion, where he recounted his accident and explained how he remained upbeat despite his terrible injuries, was one of those unforgettable encounters that truly change one´s perspective on life. I´m deeply sad that he´s gone, but...

Jeff was, once, my closest friend. His smile. His laugh. His generosity. His (amazing) athleticism. We played tons of tennis. I am certain that Jeff's wife (Johanna) and his kids...who,I was there when they were born, will smile, between tears, and know that Jeff was the darn person. In his absence, he leaves his smile & wonderful memories. RIPJG.
