Jo'el,
I met Jeff once at our company Christmas party and could not help but like him. You two were so comfortable with each other, and everyone around could sense the love you two had was special. When we (everyone from work) heard what happened, the first thing several people said was how good he was to you. I can't imagine what you and the rest of the family is going through, but please know that I think of you often and my prayers are with you all. Please stay in touch.

Jo'el,
I am very sorry for your loss and hope the days ahead bring you comfort. I met you many years ago through your sister, Alyce. Alyce and I worked together at the credit union. Although I've lost touch with Alyce, I've thought about her many times over the years. Please let her know that I asked about her.
Wishing you peace, Diane (Peterson) Perry from Grand Blanc (formerly Flint), Michigan

Jeff, although we did not know each other well - we will always be TJ Spartans. I would run into you from time to time over the years since graduation and you were always friendly and funny. The joke will be between you and me - my habit of always calling you Larry - Rest in peace fellow Spartan and my condolences to your family - Sylvia Smith-Brown.

We cannot imagine the pain of heart you are all feeling, for even if we too have loss someone, the loss is not the same because every relationship is different. What we invested, the things shared, what we actually possessed in large part determines the true extent of our loss. And even with the wonderful hope we have- initially there is still such a range of emotions that can make it seem impossible to get thru another day. So though there are no words that can completely remove the heaviness of heart you must feel, we simply wanted to acknowledge your loss, to express our deep sympathy, to let you know that we are mindful of you in our thoughts and prayers.
Jo’el, like so many others, my mind is flooded with memories of Jeff; one in particular is a conversation I had with him about you. It warmed my heart then and does so even more today! I hope that your memories of him will eventually help to float some of the sorrow out of your hearts and that you will feel the sun on your faces again. May the God of tender mercies and all comfort “daily carry your load” as you endure this difficult trial.

Jeff was my my friend who i will truly miss. The news was and is
heartbreaking. He would always make me laugh with his dry wit.
And off-beat sense of humor. He will be missed. Such a tragic loss
for both family and friends.
Miss you Jeff, Dena Townsend

So sorry hear about your loss. I know God will bless you in a special way. He will give you comfort and peace. It is so hard to lose a love one. Just remember The Good Shepherd, You, Lord are my shepherd. I will never be in need.You let me rest in fields of green grass. You lead me to streams of peaceful waters, and you refresh my life. You are true to your name,and you lead me along the right path. I may walk thru valleys as dark as death,but I won't be afraid. You are with me, and your shepherd's rod makes me feel safe. You treated me to a feast, while my enemies watch You honor me as your guest, and you fill my cup until it overflows, Your kindness and love will always be with me each day of my life and I will live forever in your house, Lord.
May God Bless you and your family always.

Little Jeff was what we called him when my family and I moved to Denver (Oneida St). Jeff would come across the street to play with my little brother 'Jarvis'. Jeff was whitty in making people laugh with his jokes and some would be lame. Jeff enjoyed being with family especially those little ones in the family he was just a big teaser as well. He had a nick name for just about everyone, when we had our second child (Rachel) he would call her u-u and he called her that up until she became a grown beautiful women. Just a very funny guy! When you did not see Jeff for a while and you would see him you could always pick up from where you left off. Let's keep one another in our prayers and be of encouragement to each other. Jeff will be missed but of course not forgotten. Thank goodness for memories and let us all cherish those loving memories of Jeff.

Little Jeff was what we called him when my family and I moved to Denver. (on Oneida St.) Would come across the street and play with my little brother Jarvis, as he grew up his personality was such that you you could not get a word in edge wise until he finished explaining to you whatever he felt he need to explain and he made a whole lot of sense...he had a nick name for just about everybody..when we had our second child he called her u-u (Rachel) and he continued to call her that as she grew up as a grown women. Jeff was witty...he made you laugh with his jokes even though they would be a little lame. (smile) He enjoyed being and staying in contact with his family and he loved being with the little ones of the family...if whatever reason you did not see Jeff for a while and you would see him you can always pick up from where you left off. We are saddened as a family but our hearts will soften as we continue to be of encouragement to one another and keep each and everyone in our prayers to get through this. Jeff will be missed but of course not forgotten...thank goodness for the memories.

It is still hard to believe that my little brother is gone. One of my friends asked me to describe my brother and I'd have to say he was handsome (awww, those dimples), smart (always had his nose in a book, just like our mother), athletic (did you see those muscles), funny (always making us laugh) and my protector (my first chaparone). He truly loved life.
I will miss you! Gone but not forgotten.
