Miss you terribly my friend! I know you are enjoying your much deserved eternal peace. I pray your family is doing well. I had to retire and am on SSDI due to the spread of cancer. SUCKS. Hanging in there as best as I can. Know that you are truly missed. You were a wonderful friend and a great team player. Until next year, Rest easy.

Not a day goes by that I don't think of you and Becky. Becky was my friend from work as well (you said you didn't know her) You both went to OSU to get your game plans for your cancers the same day, different times....and you both passed the same day, different times. Strange, right? I'm still battling my own. I had to go on SSDI....stage 3 and 4's are fast tracks, approved in a week. I often wonder how your wife and family are doing. I remember you saying that you all were very close and seeing that sparkle in your eyes as you spoke of them. It was so nice listening to all the adventures your family went on. You are missed by so many and never doubt people at work still talk of you...vendors as well. You left a legacy, for sure!

I miss you so much buddy! Work will never be the same without our bestest teammate ever!!! We think about you all the time. There is a huge void here. I'm so happy though that our paths crossed. To Jeff's family, know that I think of you guys often.

It is hard to express the peculiar sense of loss I feel for Jeffery's passing. After all we had only spoken over the phone as part of our work. But he was, in addition to be very competent and helpful, insightful and thoughtful. On many occasions I would hang up the phone and regret being in Utah because he seemed like a guy who would be a good and true friend. I just learned of your loss and can only say that I pray for God's attending grace during this time of mourning. For I have only a dim reflection of the quality of man y'all have loss. My deepest condolences.

My heartfelt condolences and prayers to Donna, family and friends. I knew Jeff from Hamilton Township School. He was always a delight to be around and always had a smile on his face. We all had fun in the HTHS Band. I always felt like we were brothers and sisters that were growing up together. When I would come into town and traveled down South High Street and passed the farm area, I always thought about Jeff.

To Jeff's Family: It is with a heavy heart I write. I am so sorry this was the outcome. It is a journey not won by many. Cancer is cruel. I will miss seeing Jeff's smiling face at the job. I had the honor of working with Jeff for quite a few years. He was the BEST! My favorite by far! His sense of humor, his knowledge, his willingness to help when needed, all wonderful qualities. One thing was clear, his love for his family. He loved each of you dearly and spoke highly of all. I will miss hearing the details of the family vacations. We were always anxiously awaiting him to return from the vacations to hear all the details. It was truly my honor to know him. I will never forget him. Heaven received a new angel, 2-11-19. An angel he is. Take care and take care of each other. Hugs to each of you.
