Jeffrey's Eulogy
How do you know what to say about the person that you loved and needed most in the world? There is so much to say but it is very difficult when you know the one thing you have to say is also the hardest thing you will ever say. How exactly do you say good-bye, I will miss you, I know I will never see you again?

It is important to me that everyone here today understands how much Jeffrey meant to me and why.

Ten years ago when I meant Jeff, I had no idea the...

September 8th was Jeffrey's birthday and 1 year since we bought our first house together. September 8, 2006 was one of the happiest days in our almost 10 years together. Jeffrey purchased the house of is dreams on his birthday. A 3 bedroom Victorian home, we did so much work to the house with family and friends help. We had so many conversations about what else we where going to do to the house, and the yard. Jeffrey loved to garden and watch the flowers start to bloom in our other house...

It's taken me some time to find the courage to attempt to write my thoughts about Jeff, about what he meant to me, but Jeff is in my thoughts everyday, I miss him more each day. We were the best of friends, Peg and Len; Gayle and Doug; Jim and I; and Joe and Jeff. That's our group of friends. We were a team, we were supposed to be forever. When I think about the future, I keep picturing Jeff being there to share our life. His smile, his laughter, his joy...I can't imagine a world without him...

WHEN SOMEONE YOU LOVE BECOMES A MEMORY,THE MEMORY BECOMES A TREASURE.

A HANDSOME GUY WITH A THOUSAND FRIENDS NONE OF WHOM HEARTS WILL EVER MEND.

JEFF WAS CHOSEN FOR A REASON,GOD HAD A PLAN,I WILL MISS JEFF FOR A MILLION REASONS HIS WISDOM,HIS ADVICE,OUR LONG TALKS,AND ESPICALLY HIS LAUGH.

IT WAS THE SADDEST DAY WHEN I GOT THE CALL ABOUT JEFF,BUT PLEASE REMEMBER IT WAS THE HAPPEIEST DAY FOR JEFF BECAUSE HE WAS GOING TO HEAVEN.

THANKS FOR ALL THOSE WONDERFUL MEMORIES...

I have been friends with Jeff for almost ten years and also,was his hairstylist. He was a genuine person. I always looked forward to seeing him and would try to mark the night off so we could catch up on things. He had an energy about him that was so wonderful that if you didn't know him you wanted too. He also had such confidence about himself that only people wished they could have in themselves. He will be greatly missed, but I can't help but smile when I think of him giving me the thumbs...

To Jeff's family and many friends. We will keep you and Jeff in our thoughts and prayers. Jeff will surely be missed by those who knew and loved him

Jeff and I have been friends for 25 years. From the beginning I called him Jeffy. He was a true and faithful friend that never let me down. He was always there for me and we shared many good times. I will treasure my memories of him, especially his laugh.

I know they say time heals, but I know my heart will always carry the loss of Jeffy.

My thoughts and prayers are with his family, especially Sally and Joe, the ones that knew him best.

I have literally known Jeff my whole life. I was lucky enough that he and my Mom were wonderful friends and I came to know him through their relationship. Jeff always said, he was responsible for my sense of style so I am grateful for that gift. He will be sadly missed. My prayers are with his family, and Jeffy will always be in my heart.
