Not sure what to say?

My parents were so enamored of Jeff and his Jupiter retreat that we would often impose on his hospitality on a Saturday night and Jeff would greet them with such good humor and warmth that I marveled that such a good-natured soul existed.

Heh Brother Jahn - this is your Brother Jahn from the other side of the Ocean - Mike from Berlin Germany ! We both worked for Siemens and met in Munich and Boca Raton - and in 1984 you invited me to your farm in Jupiter and last year in 2006 I had great days with you at the Great Luau and in the famous Blue Anchor. So you made all my trips to Florida allways a pleasure ! So even as we are not real brothers - only our last name is the same - even in Gemany Berlin you will be unforgettable -...

I’ve known Jeff for over 25 years. He means so many things to me that it is hard to put into words just how special and unique a person Jeff was. I first met Jeff at Siemens where he was a technical writer. Over the years we worked together on many projects and I thoroughly enjoyed working with him. He always excelled in his assignments with a calm intelligent demeanor, but never forgot the human side of the equation, poking just enough fun to relieve any tensions. More importantly he became...

I am proud to have known Jeff for over half of my life--In all that time I never recall him getting visibly mad, being rude or mean to
anyone or anything. His demeanor was always on an even keal-- His heart was the biggest part of him. We spent so many
fun days together--I remember when I decided to leave Boca to come to NC, he was sad and determined to help me change my mind--Even when he came to visit several times to NC, the possibility of us returning to FL was still an option in...

Memories were very important to Jeff. Whenever a colleague has an anniversary at work, he provides an organization chart from 1987, a phone list from 1994, or a company leaflet from 1982. He kept these things and really treasured them.
So when I remember Jeff, it is not just about the things we did together, but the memories that he shared with me.
At his home, he would bring out the old projector and show us wonderful home movies showing him and his brother Glenn as young boys...

I'll always remember Jeff as an easy going guy who had a wealth of technical information he was always eager to share. Outside of the office, my memories of him will always be that of a gracious host of innumerable social events. I'll miss you Jeff.

From Gary: Jeff was a great friend and colleague at work. He was always available for advise about call prossessing questions. He was non judgmental. From Gary and Mary: We enjoyed the great Luau that he founded. One of our social events of the year. Great people, great food, great drinks.
It's hard to forget his love for animals. Feral pigs and fancy chickens at Jupiter farms.
From Mary: One year I brought fried plantains as a side dish for the roasted pig. After the meal, there were a...

My dear friend Jeff,

I shall always miss you. I am still thinking of the many good times we had together, the gatherings at your Jupiter hacienda, the trips we took, the parties at my home and our collaboration on various projects at Siemens. My Mum will miss you too.

May you be forever inscribed in the Book of Life.

I had the privledge of working with Jeff for over 15 years. He was a great guy. He always had a nice word to say. Dana and I will miss him dearly.
