I am so heartbroken to hear of Jeff´s passing. He and I were known as the "W" boys at the Pi Kappa Alpha fraternity at Miami University. I will always remember Jeff as a very friendly, enthusiastic, good friend. I am grateful to have seen him in Vero Beach Florida several winters back. May you rest in peace, Jeff.

So sad that I stumbled on this obituary. At one time our family was close, but lost touch after so many of us left the greater Cleveland area. I am the youngest child and only daughter of Ed and Elvira (Coll) Wintersteller. My cousin Carl was loved and will be missed.
