Jeff was one of a kind, a true friend with a great heart and genuine caring nature. Jeff's laugh and smile were one of a kind and could make anyone enjoy the moment and live. I have great memories of Jeff, riding mountain bikes (even though he was always faster and better), the Fullerton loop, Mexico, drinking beers and cracking jokes. Jeff had a magnetic personality which is incredibly rare...he was one of the funnest people to be around and I'll never forget the great times and countless memories. The fact he has so many friends speaks volumes about his character, personality and spirit. He impacted my life and I am forever grateful for the time we had together. No doubt..I'll see you again brother.
