Jeffrey Hertz

As always, Jeff, you are missed more than you can ever imagine.

So this is weird! I was talking about Jeff to some friends on the 9th of this month. I do this often because both he and Tammy had (have) such an influence on my life. I miss you my friend, and, by the way, the Celtics are rocking the house this year. I love you.

I still miss you, my friend! Never forgotten - NEVER.

I probably tell the story of how we met 5 times a year when the former Soviet Union comes up in conversation. Now, 33 years later, I can still see the wry smile when we first made contact. It is a timeless and enduring memory. I love you, Jeff.

I look at your picture at least once a week, my dear friend. I love the one where you are tipping your Laker's hat. I just want you to know that I still hate them as much as I love you, and that is a lot.

Jeff and I first met in Moscow (1987) while he was traveling with Tammy, and from that very first day we became life-long friends. Our most special times were those during which we talked about Emma, his pride and joy. Only those of us who know and love Jeff, including my daughter Courtney,understand what a devastating loss his passing is to our lives. My sincerest belated sympathy goes out to his family. I love you, Jeff.

I WOULD LIKE TO EXPRESS MY GRADITUDE FOR ALL THE LOVELY STORIES, PRAYER, AND THOUGHTS. YOUR SUPPORT HAS BEEN SUCH A POWERFUL FORCE IN HELPING WITH MY HEALING. JEFF AND I HAD SUCH A WONDERFUL LIFE TOGETHER AND I WILL TRUELY MISS MY LOVE. I CAN ONLY HOPE THAT HIS SPIRIT WILL BE WITH ALL OF US FOREVER. MAY YOU ALL HAVE PEACE IN YOUR HEARTS AND EMBRACE EVERYDAY, BECAUSE AS WE ALL KNOW LIFE CAN BE SHORT. FONDLY, MARY

Jeff was just a great and funny friend and was incredibly supportive when I decided to raise my daughter on my own. Jeff will be sorely missed and my heart goes out to his family and friends, Sue and Jennifer

Jeff and I first met in 1981 as juniors taking Petroleum Engineering at Stanford. It was a hot fall day in September, the first class of the semester. I think the class was something scintillating like Fluid Flow through Porous Rock Media … no wonder Jeff left the oil business behind for real estate and asset management!

Anyway, I looked across the room and saw this cocky young man with shaggy hair, a beard and a t-shirt emblazoned with the words “Sex Instructor – Waikiki...
