Publish in a newspaper
During his childhood, Jeff could often be found at the Lake Hills Beaches and he loved riding his motorcycles and going to Laconia, NH. Jeff worked for A-Z Rentals in Westport and Bridgeport where he was employed for over twenty years. He had a talent for fixing anything and eventually started his own business, fixing small machines.
In addition to his mother, Jeff is survived by his two sisters and their families: Lynn (Michael) Sullivan and their son, Matt Cuccaro; Jill (Joseph) Almeida and their daughter Jessica (John) Dobyan and their daughter, Ella; his brother, James (Diane) Callahan, Jr. and their sons, John (Jessica) Callahan and James Callahan; and, his nephew, Michael (Jessica) Mentes and their children, Morgan, Ireland and Reagan. Jeffrey was predeceased by his father, James "Bruce" Callahan; and his sister, Susan Callahan.
Friends are invited to greet his family on Thursday, May 8, 2025 from 5-7 p.m. at the Shaughnessey Banks Funeral Home, 50 Reef Rd. in Fairfield. A private burial will be held at a later date.
Donations can be made in his memory in care of the funeral home.

I never knew a person as talented in the small engine depth, Jeff could take apart and put it back together blindfolded. You were always upbeat when we saw each other. R I P my friend

Today, I find myself reflecting on the moments we shared during our formative years, moments that have left an indelible mark on my heart. As youngsters, we embarked on adventures that built the foundation of our friendship, riding mini bikes, feeling unstoppable and free. Those days brimmed with laughter and youthful excitement, carved into my memory with a fondness that will always be remembered
Rebuilding that sailboat together was more than just a project; it was a journey that taught us patience and teamwork. Sailing on the lake, what a blast!
Even though the years have parted our paths and words have been few and far between, you have never been far from my thoughts. Life's journey often leads us in different directions, yet the bond we forged always lingered with me, prompting moments of reflection and curiosity about your ventures. What you may have been up to - I often wondered and hoped that wherever life took you, it brought you happiness and fulfillment.
Rest in peace Jeff and sail on brother
