Sheila, you know how much we love you, and also loved Jeff. He was so silly and goofy, but that was who he was, and most of all my friend. He will be so missed by all that knew him and loved him, and we all did. Jeff loved his family so much, that was always what he talked about.It won't ever be the same at Phil's and Marcia's anymore. He was such a clown, can't be replaced,but will always be loved and my friend.

Tina, although I haven't seen you in many years I know how much you loved your dad. My heart breaks for you and your little ones. I know nobody will ever be able to replace your dad or the Grandpa he was. I pray that somehow the void will be filled with love once again.

As I heard the news my heart broke and still does. Reading these entries I've had tears running down my face. My heart goes out to you Sheila and all of Jeff's kids and grandbabies.
It wasn't long ago I was there at ya'lls house working on the bathroom with Arleda. We had a heck of a time wiring up the light in the bathroom, the wire kept getting shorter and shorter. Jeff and I had a laugh over that.
I'll allways keep the memory of eating stew with Jeff in the back yard and sitting out there talking about the old days when he was hanging out at the Tornado Shelter, a place every body went to play foosball.
He told me how he got to hang out with Led Zeppelin back in the day. (Too Cool)
My Prayers are with ya'll.
(PS.. if there's anything we can do, Sheila call us.) I'm working out of town but not far.

My sincere condolences to Sheila and Jeff's family.
Such a sad thing to find out. I really wish I would have found the time to revisit old times with him. MANY a good memory with him, and the rest of the gang. Jeff was truly one of the nicest guys I knew from way back then.
Prayers said, and again, my most sincere condolences!

As far back as I have had the priviledge of knowing Sheila and Jeff ... I can only recall how welcomed and loved they always made me and everyone else feel.
It is so hard for me to accept that a part of this loving couple is no longer with us.
I guess God needed someone to tend his Garden, and Barbeque at the Heavenly Dinners.
Jeff, you will be so missed.
Sheila, I have always treasured your friendship. and there are no words that can describe how my heart is breaking for you at this time.
I Love You,
Jacqueline

We are very sorry for your loss. Our thoughts and prayers are with the family. Although we had the honor of meeting Jeff only once, we instantly got the impression that he was a very nice person. We saw how much he loved Tina and his grandkids, and he even took the time to talk to us and express how very highly he thought of Lina, and had only wonderful things to say about her. We pray that God gives everyone the strength to cope with this tragedy. God Bless You all.

Dad,
I miss you so much. I can't believe you are gone, it's so hard to accept. I keep waiting for you to call and here your ring tone and I answer you greet me with some witty goofy hello.
Your Grandkids love and miss you, you were always the center of thier world. There will always be void that can never be filled. There was so much for you to see , so many more memories to make. I wish you could be here to watch Shae attend her first day of school, and Abigail's and Dakota's birthday. You had such a strong bond with your grandkids and it will forever live on.
I miss your jokes, your laughing, your smile. The way we would look foward to seeing you everyday. We are going to miss you pulling up in the front yard and the kids running out to greet you . I'm going to miss the times you would always come over for dinner, or our daily chats. I'm going to miss the way I would have a bad day and I called you just so you can listen, and I can't , we can't anymore, and I just can't accept that. Dad I NEED YOU , WE NEED YOU!
I ask that you always watch over us, and that were you are at, you have peace.
I will never forget you, and your memories will never be forgotton and i will think about you everyday for the rest if my life, and so will your grandkids.
Dad...I LOVE YOU...I just wish you knew how much everyone loved you .
Forever in Our Hearts
Your Daughter
