I knew Jeff when I went to school at NIU back in the 90's. He had an amazing classic rock record collection on vinyl which he loved to sit back enjoy with a wine cooler on a saturday night. He loved his fish tanks and grilling steaks and potatoes. I remember him being a very hard worker. Most of all I remember him being a good friend and having a good spirit. Not a mean bone in his body! Cheers Jeff!

Jeff Gunther was my husband,Steve Voris's nephew and very dear to all of my family. He had a contagious laughter ,that set us all laughing. He was very talented in Gardening, Aquariums and any topic u wanted to discuss ,was a good conversationalist. Made great pizza and Spritz cookies to share with all of us on Christmas. Always happy to see us. Feel very sad, but glad to have known Jeff and have our memories.
