Jeff's passing was a shock... He fished w me on the F/V Homeward in Bristol Bay. Jeff was beyond capable, he was a professional. I'll miss him on the boat. [email protected]

We are so sorry to learn of Jeff's passing and are equally sorry for your loss. Jeff was fun to know, a really great guy who often shared crab and scallops with us. He will be missed and left us far too soon.
