Jeff,
Yet another year since your passing (11years). Your family & friends think & speak of you often. Your funny antidotes about life in general. I just spoke to a sister who´s brother witnessed the harpoon into ceiling speaker
(in classroom@school)
We all miss your wisdom on politics & knowledge of baseball.
The stories will be remembered long after I´m gone.
Love you, Diana

Jeff my true love I´m really missing you this year. It´s very hard for me to believe it´s now been TEN YEARS. My heart breaks when I think of you. You know how much I loved you because I told you all the time (you to me).
You would be so proud of our family. I look at pictures of you and still say goodnight to you.
Your wife who still loves you, Diana

Five years is almost impossible to be true. I've thought about you everyday in those long hours without you. You are thought and talked about by our kids and friends. I go past places we were together and think and miss you terribly.
You would be so proud of our kids today.
Our new granddaughters, Jeff flying for South West airlines, Mikes Catherine, Coles job this summer, Spencer and Drew getting so big , Aaron's promotion to director, Brandon's added responsiblity at work.
You should be here, in my way of thinking.
I know this is not to be now, but I can keep you near with that thought.
Though you are far away, I am with you

I hope that this is the same Jeffrey who once lived his early years in Ridgewood, New Jersey. We lived on Union Street down from the church on the corner. He was my only playmate, since everyone was retired. We played together all the time. My family moved away when I was 6 and lost contact with him. I recently looked at my mother's alumni book and read the Jeffrey retired from teaching. If this is the same friend that I shared my fond early years, I am so sorry that I he passed before I could meet him again. I am very sad for his family. He knew me as Dick Smith.

I had the privilege of student teaching under Mr. Mulder. He was a great mentor and example. I so appreciated all his help and the opportunities he gave me.

Mr. Mulder was my civics teacher at E.E. Fell. I always looked forward to his class because he was so honest with us. He made us question our beliefs, something I am grateful for to this day.

Mr mulder was one of my favorite teachers at HHS. Even after graduation I saw him often while I was working at Skips pharmacy. I'm so saddened to hear about his passing. Condolences to his family

As a former colleague of Jeff's at Holland Junior High School, I am so very, very sorry to learn that he has died. I will remember his love for his students and his dedication to his work. As I offer my sympathy to his family, I will always be grateful that he was a friend and colleague. Cynthia Baine De Maagd

Mr. Mulder was someone who had a profound impact on my life. He truly cared about his students and was a great teacher - both in and out of the classroom. Often we do not give our teachers the credit due them for helping to shape our lives - Mr. Mulder deserves much credit. I had the privilege of re-connecting with him (and meeting his wonderful wife) last November while both he and I were undergoing cancer treatment. I am so thankful now that our paths crossed again so many years later, and am deeply saddened that I will not have that opportunity again. The entire family has my deepest sympathy.

So sorry to hear about Mr. Mulder's passing. I had him for a teacher at E.E. Fell in the 75-76 school year. He had great hair and a unique walking gait, kind of a swagger. I really liked listening to his stories. My sympathies to his family at this difficult time.
