I was at the Mobil down the street when I first met Mr. Carfi 4 months ago. He was the sweetest guy! He overheard me saying I was new to Rocky Hill, (moved from VA last year with my husband), and gave all sorts of encouragement to help my nerves.

Needless to say I was heartbroken when I heard from the Mobil cashier that he passed away. I had wondered why I didn't see him as usual when I'd come in for coffee, and thought I just missed him for the day.

Condolences to the family and his loved ones... I am only a stranger but even I know you've lost a truly good man.

I was so sad when I saw it in the local paper. Jeff was such a positive person. He always had time to talk to you and had a wisdom that comes from a person who has lived a full life. He is gone too soon.

Will always remember Jeff from the Carriage Crossing days, and what a creative, hard working, upbeat / positive person he was with a zest for life. Pool parties, bands, Blair Witch unit and the condo fire are all remembered like yesterday. Goodbye bro.
