Jeff hired me for my first real job out of college at York Steakhouse in the Natick mall. The standards he instilled in me served me well over the next 30 years in the hospitality industry. I will always be grateful for the confidence he showed in a cocky young college kid in 1976, God Bless.

It is sad to hear of Jeff's passing. He was a wonderful man and a mentor to me in my younger years growing up in the restaurant business with him at York Steak House. His willingness to give me a chance as a young man will never be forgotten. Even though over the years we lose touch with individuals we never lose the memories of times shared. Jeff was a mentor, friend, and an all around good guy. May his family be blessed in this most difficult time,

Jeff was a wonderful son inlaw and brother inlaw, we are so sorry he was taken from us so soon. I will never forget the many days we spent together while he was going through his treamants and the long talks we had together. He loved his family and friends and we can all share those wonderful memories.

Jeff was a loving and caring man who made you feel comfortable from the first minute that you met him. His generosity with family and friends is without question. Of his many great qualities I will remember his smile and his gusto for life, always on the go. May his family always keep their memories of him close and allow them to help each of them through their grief.
