Melissa~
I'm so sorry to hear of your loss. I just received an email from Michelle Helms informing me that Jeff passed away.
I've been thinking of you a lot lately (before hearing this news) and would love to hear from you sometime.
May you find comfort in knowing Jeff's in heaven with Jesus watching over you, Noah, and Sydney.
I will keep you and your family in my prayers.

Missy,I was devistated when I heard the news today. I don't really attend formal gatherings.In fact I didn't attend my own Grandmother funeral on the 23rd because I can't handle loss that well. The only reason I'm sending this is because I can't get you out of my head. My heart aches for you.I know that he has been called home. We won't know why until we join him.
I just wanted to offer some support.I'm a great listener, and you need someone to talk to, but know what or how to say it, I'm pretty good at filling in the empty spaces. I know you don't know me that well. We met at the reunion. I probably spent more time talking to yo than any other individual there. I recognized you more than half the people in my own class. Call if there's anything I can do to help out. Even if it's just a break from your kids. It seams like you have a lot of family for that. Even a play date would help lighten the load,I have a 3 yr old that I'm home with all day. I'm not just offering to be polite,many people do, but I truely mean it. Annastasia ( Davies ) Kurszewski (414-259-1686. Call anytime, I'm up late!

To Jeff, who help me find the true meaning of why I am here on earth. Christ through Jeff, helped shape my life and mold me into God's man and helped me take risks for Christ. Jeff's dream will live on through me and the many other men that Jeff worked with. I know he will be holding the gates open for us when we get to heaven!

Jeffery is the newest star shining brightly in the heavens. His life was full with love and care for his fellow man. His Mother and Father (My Brother) can be justly proud of the countless lives he touched in such a very positive manner. God Bless You Jeffery and may your walk with our Lord be a never ending joy and may God's healing hand touch each of your Family's Hearts.
