Dear Lynn and lovely daughters,
Dan and I had the pleasure of meeting you and Jeff one evening several years ago while dining at Buckley's. Our daughter, Brittany introduced us to you both. We felt we already knew you and Jeff as Brittany raved about you and the friendship you and Brit had developed over the years.
We offer our deepest condolences to all of you in such a loss for you all. Our prayers are with you.

Lynn, I´m so sorry for you and your girls. I remember Jeff as not only incredibly fun, but a genuinely kind and caring person. It was only his second year in the business when I met you guys. I can´t imagine your sadness right now, but hopefully your memories together and also hearing the way everyone thought so highly of him will make your heart rest a little easier. Sending you much love, Melissa (Blood) Fahs

Lynn, Kirsten and Karta I am so sorry for your loss. Jeff was an amazing person. He had a heart of gold. He is the major reason Mark and I started our own business. His guidance and support were invaluable. He will be greatly missed.
