I am so sorry to hear of Jeff's passing. Jeff and I often walked home from middle school together. He was a remarkably patient, smart, and decent kid. Many times he could have used his much larger size to teach me a well-deserved lesson, but Jeff extended mercy every single time. Partway home from school one winter day, I decided to start a fight with Jeff for some forgotten reason. Jeff pushed away a punch to his chest, leaned back, and looked down at me with an informative glance identical to his picture in the obituary (except both of us had more hair on top back then). From that moment on, I was as polite to Jeff as he always had been to me.
