Not sure what to say?

Jeff, it's been almost 7 years now. Everything is still fresh in my mind. Just like it was yesterday. When something like that happens, you never get over it. If you can see how things are going on earth, you know how bad it is here. I never in my life thought I'd see things this awful, and it's everywhere, and not much can be done about it now. I just take one day at a time. I hope you're singing with the Angels. LY

Hi Sweetie, well, tomorrow it will be 5 years since you had to leave. It's like it just happened yesterday. I miss you just as much as I did then. Mom passed away last May 27th have you seen her? So It's REALLY lonely. We're under quarantine for a long time now, for a virus that hit just about everywhere. Have to wear a mask and gloves go to any store or a Doctor's office. This beats anything I've ever seen before in my life. So, I really miss your hugs right now. I think about you...

Jeff, in two days it will be four years that you will be gone, and nothing has changed. I love you with all my heart, and miss you every single day. I wish you could be here. Mom isn't doing well at all, and i'm The only one left to care for her. It's REALLY hard and I feel so alone all the time. I think about you so much and wish you were here to give me one of your BIG hugs! I miss you sweetheart!! Please watch over us and as I always wonder- can you see me? Your loving wife Dawn

Dear Jeff,

Well a lil bit has changed since then and i have made some meals. I thought about u every time I did and said I wish Jeff was here 2 see this. He would b so proud of me. U were an incredible guy and human being in general. I wish u were still here so we can have another Sears reunion. But I will see u again some day my friend. U...

I thought I had signed this guest book, but I don't see it. I'm so sorry for your loss, Dawn. I didn't know Jeff, but from the things I've read, he was a good, kind man who did his part to make the world a better place. I know you are struggling with this situation, as anyone would, and I want you to know I think of you often, every day, in fact, and pray that you will get through this. Things will never be the same, but I hope the pain decreases somewhere in the future. Prays for you.

I LOVE YOU! ANDI MISS YOU MORE EVERYDAY. "CAN YOU SEE ME?"

May you rest in peace. My deepest sympathies to the family. I will miss not seeing you at Giant.

To the entire Rex family,

Even though Jeff didn't work directly for me when I was a manager at Sears, he was one of my favorites. I had the honor of seeing him in hospital on Friday, two days before he passed. His spirit was like he was never sick. Besides having oxygen he looked so happy cause we had a little "Sears reunion" with 2 others. We laughed and laughed and had such a good time I never wanted the night to end. Jeff blew me away when he remembered that I don't cook. I left...

Dear Dawn,
Please accept my condolences. Jeff was quite a guy, and I always appreciated his email. Even though I didn't get to see him many times during this illness, I felt like I got to know him fairly well through his emails. God bless you.
