He was so loving and caring and we will always remember how concerned he was for Dylan with his diabetes diagnosis and how he gave him tips and wanted to help him even with everything he was dealing with.

I wish you my most sincere condolences Carol, Olivia, and Harrison. Jeff was not only my favorite boss during my 35 years as a hygienist but I am also proud to say was a dear friend. I know he will live on in your hearts and memories. It looks like you all have had so many wonderful times as a close family. In the photos the pride he has for his precious family shows so clearly in his eyes and smile! I love y'all and will continue my prayers for you as always.
