JEFFREY CREECH Obituary

His life forever changed his family, friends and others who were part of 'Team Jeffrey'. He was a son, brother, uncle, nephew, friend, cousin, grandson and godfather. Jeffrey was an important part of their lives and will always be with them, no matter what, as he lives on in their hearts. He loved The Komets, basketball, football, NASCAR, (Jeff Gordon was his favorite driver), and anything Tim Allen. But most of all, he loved his family and friends. Surviving are his parents, James and Cathleen Creech of Spencerville; brothers, Justin Creech of Fort Wayne and Joshua Creech of Spencerville; sister, Nicole Creech (Andrew) Cassidy of Toledo, Ohio; nieces, Gracie and Cathleen Cassidy; grandfathers, William Erb of Spencerville and William Bland of Kentucky; and numerous aunts, uncles and cousins.
