A Good Day!

Jeff will be missed. I enjoyed fishing with the mellowist guy I know.

Ah, Jeff, old buddy. I've spent the past two days reliving all the old good times in my mind. From teenage buddies to growing into men together. Although distance caused us to lose touch, it never took away the affection I have for the old laid back, easy going guy who was always the glue that kept us all together, even when we were far apart. I only wish I would have called before it was too late. Save a seat on that future train that's coming for me someday. We'll play a little cribbage and...

Jeff and I worked together many years ago at Abbott Northwestern Hospital. I am so sorry to learn of his passing. He was a man of patience, respect and enjoyed a good laugh.

I was grateful to have known and worked with Jeff for the many years I've worked with him. God bless you.

Our thoughts & prayers are with you all during these difficult days. Jeff is in God's hands now.
Love, Jane, Sandy & Lilia
