I was quite young when my sister Mari married Jeff. But I always remember him as being a really nice guy with a great sense of humor. He would make us pizza at the Point Comfort, I loved being out there on Okauchee Lake. We never know why life's journey takes us in different directions, but if we are fortunate, a man like Jeff crosses our path and we are grateful for having known him. Jeff was one of those people that even if you didn't see him for many years, you still remembered his laugh and kindness. RIP Jeff, thanks for the memories, the love you showed my sister, and bringing my nephew into the world.

I remember Jeff as an extremely nice guy. When he married my sister Mari he married into a crazy (and large) family but he always treated us all like brothers and sisters.Only a guy as nice as Jeff would let his wife play a Jimi Hendrix song at their Jewish wedding.My prayers go out to his family.

Michael, being a certified cook, your dad taught me "when someone asks for a recipe, make sure you leave one ingredient out", something I still live by today. We hope someday soon to meet you once again.Sincerly..your Aunt Barbie
