Jeff had a quirky sense of humor, he enjoyed telling dad jokes to all who would listen. He was an avid fan of Star Wars, Star Trek, Mash, and old western shows. Jeff also enjoyed spending time riding his motorcycle and going target shooting; keeping his sharpshooter skills fine-tuned. Spending time with his family and extended family was important to him.
