Jeffrey Wayne Hott

I went to Medical School with Jeff (Dr. Hott) starting in 1983 and as his obituary implies he was a treasured classmate and friend. So easy to talk to and humble regarding his intelligence. We were only in touch those 4 years (1983-1987) so I enjoyed reading about his accomplishments post medical school but am not surprised. He was special back then and went on to accomplish great things. Fair winds my friend!

I was so sorry to hear of Dr. Hott's passing. I also was so fortunate to have worked with him at IU/ USHW occupational health services. He was a wonderful , caring physician and a fun, interesting and down to earth person whom I feel honored to have called my friend. Sincere condolences to family members who surely cherish his memories with them. Miss you Jeff! I'm sure you're enjoying your heavenly green fields. Barbara Williams

I too had the pleasure of working with Dr. Hott at IU Occupational Health. Many times over the past few years I've thought of him with the hope that he was out working his farm and enjoying his life. I knew he would be if he could.There was never any doubt that that was his favorite place to be. As a physician he was so down to earth and such a joy to work with! Whether he was sharing knowledge or expertise or some of his home grown tomatoes he was just like part of your family. Rest in peace Dr. Hott...your worldly work is done but I'm sure God has plans for you.

We were so sad to hear of Jeff's passing, but know he's in a better place rejoicing among the angels with his King! Memories of the old neighborhood come flooding back - much simpler, and happier times hanging out, riding bikes and or course, the lake! Rest in the arms of The Father, Jeff and we'll see you on the other side! Sending prayers and hugs to the entire family and will certainly be "turning it up" in his memory!

He is seated at the right hand of our father. My condolences to the family. I had the honor and pleasure of working for Dr. Hott. I was one of many nurses that took pride working by his side. He touched my life and I'm forever grateful. I will miss you my mentor, my friend. Tracie Bell, RN

So sorry for your loss. Prayers for the family during this difficult time. I will be planting something in Jeff's memory today and "turning it up " in his honor afterwards. Hugs and love.

My condolences to the Hott family. My family, the Walt Wintin family were friends of the Hott family in Warren Twp. from 1962 until 1967. We were all involved with the Boy Scouts of America Troop and Cub Pack in the Pleasant Run School District during that time. My husband Walt and I and Roby were involved with the leadership, and my son David and Randy were Scouts during that time. Roby and Walt, Randy and David had some canoe adventures together. In 1967 we moved to Seymour, where I still live, and we lost touch. David and his family moved to New Pal around 1983 or 4, and David and his wife Carole taught at New Pal for several years. They still live there.

Sandy, I just read Jeff's obituary in the "IndyStar" and honor his devotion to medical research and patient care while hearing his depth of love for family. Not having personally known him when I worked at Wishard Hospital, I do fondly recall the Jefferson Jr. High years of friendship you and I had and I'm praying for you in this time of mourning his loss. But I'm rejoicing in the love and dedication you showed as his caregiver with your own medical expertise. May your memories of a shared love with Jeff sustain you and may you be comforted with a purpose: "Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our affliction, so that we may be able to comfort those who are in any affliction, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God. For as we share abundantly in Christ's sufferings, so through Christ we share abundantly in comfort too" (2 Cor. 1:3-5). Warmly and prayerfully, Carla (Cook)

Remembering Jeff, Had a lot of good times back "in the day". Lost contact over the years but I was very proud of his accomplishments, but most of the "Lake Gang" made good! After reading his obit. I was astonished but not all that surprised that his personal and career influence had become so prolific. Jeff was intelligent, conscientious and by far the best student among us! May God bless you Jeff and your loved ones in their time of grief; I am certain you will be missed. Travel well brother...Kevin and Sherie Miller, Greenfield

I worked with Dr. Hott for many years in occupational medicine. He was such a wonderful teacher to all of us as well as a great doctor to our patients. We were all blessed to have walked along side him if even for a moment in this earthly life. See you soon Doctor! God Bless.

Sandy, our love and prayers for you, Zed, Nash and family. Jeff was a truly exceptional friend. A competitor in all facet games and life. A good man. He is missed. May God provide peace for your heart.

Prayers and loving thoughts to this wonderful family.

We are thinking of the Hott family and praying for you.Tom will be planting something in memory of Jeff.
