Sept. 27, 1948 - July 29, 2023
AUBURN - Jeffrey Raymond Koon, 74, of Auburn, NY, passed away on July 29, 2023, at Auburn Community Hospital. Jeff was born in Auburn, NY on September 27, 1948, to Harry and Alice (Guyett) Koon in Auburn, NY.

He had stores in Auburn, Weedsport, Port Byron and Forestport. The Shanty Gaff in Weedsport was his most cherished venture.
Throughout his life, Jeff spent all his time between Auburn and Brantingham Lake and later, Ormond Beach. Jeff was happiest at the lake and spending time with all of the canine companions he had through the years.
Jeff is predeceased by his parents and several aunts, uncles, and cousins. He is survived by his brother, Francis (Laurie) Koon, of DeWitt, NY; his nieces: Kristin (Andrew) Ward and Jennifer Koon (Mark); his nephew, Andrew (Christa) Koon; and several cousins.
