Dear Jeff,

Our paths over the years have crossed back and forth sometimes frequently and sometimes, sigh, infrequently. The interesting thing though is that every time you walked back through my door it was a fun, hilarious, serious, laughable, cryable, momentus, ridiculous but ultimately and most importantly an utterly comfortable moment. It always seemed as if we had JUST spoken or seen one another no matter how much time had passed. I haven't met many people in my lifetime that I could say that about. I will be waiting for you to crack me up the next time we meet, get ready!



Love, Pam & Gary

Seldom are we fortunate enough to cross paths with someone as special as Jeff and the entire Mitchell family. My heart breaks for the loss of a one of a kind friend and for his family who will have to endure the sorrow. Peace to you my friend and keep smiling!

Jeff, You helped to make me feel at home when I moved to Inglemoor in the middle of my Jr. year. I have many fond memories of crazy fun that we had together. Although we didn't see each other often in the following years, we always seemed to take up right where we left off. You had a gift of making people feel loved and special. I will miss your laughter and sparkle.

The world has lost a great person in Jeffrey. He was a great friend of my family's and especially me. I remember in fourth grade when he helped me with a history project that required a model. Jeff was always there with his artistic advice. His ideas were always the best. He was always a great friend to talk about anything with. He will be greatly missed by not only me but by all of his friends and family. WE ALL LOVE YOU JEFF!!& WE WILL ALL MISS YOU!!

Jeff was like a brother to me - always there when our family needed something. I have a bowl made by you that I will always treasure. Your artwork was so original and your friendship so meaningful. You will be sorely missed by those who loved you.
