Worked with Jeff '87-'88 in Kingman Az. He was Mr. Camera man & I was Ms. Grip/ writer/ voice/whatever. We had some interesting assignments; he taught me so much...that smile, that sense of humor, that intensity. A very unique man & I'll not soon forget him. Hope you're havin' fun, Jeff

Thank you to those who have spoken well about my dad. If anyone has any stories with or about him, I would love to hear them. It's been 4 years since his passing but it still feels like yesterday
I did not know I could find this online.
