I am so sorry to hear about his passing. I often thought about him. He was a terrific person who always made us laugh! May the love you shared carry you through.

I didn´t know Jeffrey, but by chance read his son´s sweet, captivating baseball-esque tribute to him, and just now his wife´s radiant offering. A life beautifully lived. We hound all be so lucky. My hat off to Mr. Karp and his family.
