Jeffrey Alan Cuenin was the second of four children born to Robert and Lorraine Cuenin in North Tonawanda, NY. He graduated from Sweet Home High School and began a long and successful career at Eastern Shaft & Manufacturing. When he wasn't working, Jeff was an adventurous athlete. He spent his down time riding dirt bikes, rollerblading, playing tennis and racquetball, water skiing, windsurfing, scuba diving, snowboarding and was even known to ride a unicycle. He loved to play poker and blackjack and had a deep appreciation for music, particularly vinyl records. Jeff's family grew when he had his daughters: Jessica, Amy, Heather, and Amber. He engaged his four girls in all his beloved activities, ensuring they knew how to play poker for pennies, shoot clay disks, properly scuba dive in a hot tub, sing every Beatles song, and master ping pong and darts. Jeff was an exceptionally fun dad who filled their time with treasured experiences and lasting memories, instilling in them the same love of adventure and fun that filled his life. In his later years, Jeff spent his time in Lancaster, NY and Melbourne, FL with his fiancé, Nancy Salzmann. Jeff and Nancy enjoyed biking, traveling, spending their weekends at the lake, visiting his father, and spending time with her children and grandchildren. They had a long and loving relationship that brought great joy to Jeff's life. Jeff is survived by his fiancé, Nancy Salzmann, his father, Robert Cuenin, his daughters, Jessica (Casey) Ewald, Amy Cuenin, Heather (Scott) Baxter, Amber (Zack) Imboden, and their nine children. He is also survived by his sister Wendy (Gary) Penke and their children Nicole, Tara, and Todd. Jeff is predeceased by his mother, Lorraine Cuenin, and sisters Kathy Cuenin and Susan Cuenin.
