Not sure what to say?

Aww Jeff, still thinking of you with love in my heart. You were such a sweet guy and I will always remember you fondly... Vicki Gentes

Dear Lott Family,
Jeff was a wonderful team mate in our New Leader Program last year. He was a consistent contributor to our success, always a bright spot, very positive, even when we were all the end of our ropes. He loved his family very much, and was so proud of you all. This tragedy is shared by all our Team, and his loss goes very deep. We send our best wishes and most sincere condolences to you all.

Gonna miss you Jeff, May God be with your family and watch over them while you are preparing a place for them yourself.

I just heard the news today about Jeff and am deeply saddened. I had contacted him shortly after the death of his friend Brad and received a nice email back from him. We hadn't spoken in many years and it was nice to catch up. I can't believe he too is now gone!
I have no doubt that Brad was waiting for him on the other side and that they are together again. God bless them both and their family and friends who are left behind. I will always remember Jeff fondly.

Jeff. I know many years went by since I last talked or have seen you, but you were a good friend in the early years of our lives. After High School, we went our seperate ways but forever I will call you friend. One day I will see you again. Till then, may you be in the grace of God. Your friend always. Jon Schmidt.

With deepest sympathy to the family. I vanpooled with Jeff to Arlington. He will be missed dearly.

Jeff, my greatest memories of ODU were the ones with you and Brad. You guys were the best. I can only hope that the two of you are up there smiling down on the rest of us and laughing for all enternity. I will never forget your laugh and smile, my friend.

"When you sail across the ocean waters
And you reach the other side safely
Could you smile a little smile for me?
Cause I'll be thinkin' about you"

Your smile and laughter will be missed by all. Sending my deepest sympathy to your beautiful family. I know you'll be protecting them from above. Peace, my friend.
