Sad news!
I'm glad I had a chance to talk to Jeff in recent months so we could we remember together some of the great times we shared with "Fisherman" John & the boys.

Your friends and fishin' buddys up in Fox Lake area will miss you.
We'll always have the memories!
My sincere condolences to the family.
Jeff, I bid you fair-winds and calm seas on your new journey.
Farewell my friend!

Jeff I will never forget our fishing trips to Hayward. You always had a funny story to tell and it was a great pleasure sharing a boat and good times. Sunny days and smooth seas my friend.
