Not sure what to say?

It doesn't seem possible that you've been gone six years! Boy, what you'd have to say about the country these days! You SAID the Trump years were going to be interesting... Missing you, today and always, until I see you on the other side! Heaven is JUST big enough to hold you!

All day long I thought of you. A cold front was moving in, so I was outside taking pictures of the flowering items to catch a glimpse of what it looked like in case it freezes tonight. I kept thinking of you, looking at the clouds and knowing you are now in your heavenly home. I miss you, old and dear friend. I heard you twice in songs on the radio. I passed a car that looked just like yours on the road. We've five Baltimore Orioles this year (the bird, silly). If I told you that, I thought,...

Yesterday was such a melancholy day, old friend. Miss you often, and still find myself wondering what you'd have to say about so many things. I'd love to buy you breakfast and pick your brain, see your smile and hear your laugh. Miss you.

I am just a fan of Jeff's, of his beautiful voice and his group, the Shades of Grey.

I will miss you my friend! Always good for a joke and a happy man.

One of my favorite Acapella Choir members at BCCHS. Jeff had a wonderful heart and I will miss his wonderful smile. Rest in Peace, my friend

Lowell: I've never met you or your brother, Jeff; however, I wanted to take the time to express my sincere condolences to you. I always tell my "hubby" that you were my email buddy for awhile, and that I enjoyed our correspondence!! (By the way, my account got hacked and taken over during that time, and I was never able to use it again!!). May the memories of your brother sustain you. I'm also very sorry to hear of your mother's passing, some time ago. I hope this messages...

My deepest condolences and prayers go out to friends and family. I will miss our conversations not just from when we were on the sidelines but in passing as well. Coach will be greatly missed more than words can say.
