Jeffrey Lion

During the 20-plus years I have represented Lion businesses, Jeff always stood out as a brilliant thinker, warm but direct, serious but often with a mischievous look, non-lawyer but seriously educated himself on the legal issues at hand, always a step ahead of Lion's competitors, and a great client to work with. Through my legal work for Lion Jeff also became a friend. He loved his work--but above all else, he loved his family. He will surely be missed.

Jeff Lion was an amazing man who was blessed with a beautiful life and brought many along with him for the ride. He wouldn't give a "hand out" but was quick to offer a "hand up". You did not need to be wealthy or of a certain social status to be his friend. If he liked you, that was enough. My world will be bleaker without him. He was my mentor, my confidante, my cherished friend....my cousin Jeffrey. Till we meet again

Worked only a short time for Lion Raisin packing. Jeff was always smiling and has the eyes of his father. To young to pass!

Sending love and prayers to the Lion Family. Rest in peace Jeff. Diane Keurajian

Jeff was not trained in biology, but he was a fast study and his council was always valued. He was a dear friend and a true warrior against cancer. When he set his mind to something it always...

My deepest condolences, prayers and hugs to Ingrid and all the lion family. So many fond memories that will be cherished and never be forgotten. May you Rest In Peace - Jeff Auntie Julie McLaughlin and family
