Jeffrey D. Halbersma

Long gone, but never forgotten. Diana and Joe

Just a few lines to let you know how much you are missed by all of us. We are so sorry we miss your party that the gang threw for you. Unfortunately we were on the road as usual. Wendy keep in touch! Thanks for all the beautiful cards you mail us. And to know you also know Dave adn I's niece Merissa (lost Garrett last year to a drunk driver) makes us feel warm in our hearts that you were there for her and her family durring the time of these great losses. Shawn~ love ya man! You are an...

Brother Jeff, it's been a year since you left. How time flys. Thoughts of you and the good times we had in Petaluma will always remain in my memory. The partys at the Lakeville house were sure a blast. I sure am glad Charley had that pocker game just before you left. It had been TOO long since so many of the old gang were all together. As I raise a glass to your memory, I hope you are resting in the peace of God's love. May His Love spread to the rest of your family and friends and bring them...

Well Jeffrey I can't believe it's been a whole year that you've been absent from our lives. It's gone by so fast. One minute you were here gracing us with your larger than life presence and the next you were taken away so quickly. Life is very fragile, its true. Our lives are still moving forward and we are coping. For me though, there is a different feeling about it. It's hard to put into words exactly. We will always be a strong family and a close family but it's just not the same without...

Uncle Jeff, I wish you were here to see me in first grade. I hope you are happy up in heaven with God. Do you see our new computer? We bought a new game called Battlefield Vietnam. I wish you were here to watch me play Battlefield Vietnam because it is really fun. I bet you would have fun too?

Time is flying by....we all have good intentions...now that Winter approaches we can take a breath, pause, attend to the matters that should have been attended to. Our thoughts continue to be with you all through this sad year and we can only hope that time, itself, will give you even a small measure of comfort. Joe and I have our special memory of Jeff taking time to play a game of golf with us on our visit to Sebastopol, I am so sorry that I wasn't able to be a bigger part of your children...

Hi Jeff, You'll never guess who this is. Your oldest friend in the world. You had to have been about a year old. And I only five months younger. You'll never know how sad this all makes me. I know how hard it is to remember everyone you've ever known when the pain from the shock that a very special someone has gone to heaven first, before any of us. Because if you think about. How would Jeff be the person, the friend that he is, If he wasen't there to show us the ropes when we get there. Six...

Today marks the sixth month since you left us Jeffrey. Not a day goes by without you in my thoughts. Sometimes they are light and funny and I laugh thinking of something you did or said. Other days I am very saddened and the tears come. This is all part of the grieving process I am told, but that's no comfort to my heart that misses you so much. Mom called me this morning at 2:00 am. Her and Dad were on the boat under the clear night sky filled with stars and they were thinking of you Jeff....
