I met Jeff at work a long time ago. We would talk, work, hunting, fishing and times past. Jean, he would always talk about you and his family. He would always call or text when he had your famous deserts, always putting a couple aside so I was sure to get some. Besides working together he was a good friend who will be greatly missed. You and your family are in our prayers.
