Jeff was a beloved Son, Brother, Uncle, and most of all- Friend. Jeff was born and raised in Anchorage, where he attended Chinook, Mears, and was a Dimond grad in 1978. He worked at the Honda of Anchorage and the Muni city sign shop.
On July the 17th 1982 he suffered a life changing head injury while racing in the state motocross. After his accident he lived with his parents, sister Shan and brother Gregg. One of his favorite things to do was to walk to his bank, pull out some money for a Snickers and a Pepsi at Carrs, and on to McDonald's for a burger.
Jeff was happy man who loved family and friends. His favorite dinner prayer was singing "Johnny Appleseed" which he added several Amens to the end. Jeff loved to ring the bell at Gloria Dei after service was done.
We had the pleasure of having him with us for 43 years after his crash. He was preceded in death by his parents, Dalia and Harold. He is survived by his sister Shan and brother-in-law Rob. His brother Clark and wife Mardi, and his twin brother Gregg and wife Tina.
He had 14 nephews and nieces.
There will be a celebration of life on August 8th at Kincaid Chalet from 5:30pm to 8:30 pm.
