Not sure what to say?

Jeff and I went to the same camp in Wisconsin for a couple summers. Still, he called me when he was in town (Cincinnati) and we went out and played tennis and had lunch. He was a very good tennis player and wonderful guy. I remember thinking how thoughtful it was for him to reach out to me like that. It really saddened me to learn of his passing. I bought his charming children's book, about Hank Aaron, "Baseball Brothers," and reviewed on Amazon.

I still miss Jeff. He was one of my good buddies, in high school and beyond. Hope he has been resting in the peace that eluded him much of his adult lifetime. Love you Jeffrey

I first met Jeff at Stanford, where we played tennis and often partnered in doubles, although we both wondered if we'd seen each other at a junior tournament somewhere north of Chicago. We shared many times at Stanford trying to figure out what life might have in store for each of us (and everybody else!), enjoying every moment. When he visited me in California while promoting his beautifully crafted Hank Aaron children's book in the mid-70s, it was as if we'd never lost touch with each...

Doug Jacobs, what a nice idea to honor the memory of a wonderful guy. It has been since high school that I last saw Jeff. He is one of those people of whom I only have good memories. Jeff,you are the best, see you at the infinite reunion.

Jeff was one of my favorite patients at work, always a joy. I will miss him, and his family dearly. My prayers are with him and the Rubins.

My big brother's good friend, my childhood friend's first true love, my co-godparent for Charlie and Sam... truly a caring, gentle soul. I'll miss you, Jeffy, but at least I can still see your smile in my mind's eye.

Dear Jake: Talent and humility are a rare combination. You were a true leader without having to be a "steady rider."

Jeff will always be in my heart. He has been a treasured part of my life for 34 years and as much as I will miss him, he deserves to be at peace. My thoughts and prayers are with you, David, Elizabeth, Harley and Betty.
