Jeffery Kouw Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
He is survived by his three daughters, Emmaline, Makayla, and Amelia, and his mother Donna Kouw.
Jeff was preceded in death by his father, Ron Kouw in 2008.
Jeff graduated from West Ottawa High School in 1990. He then attended Lake Superior State University for a year before continuing his education at Grand Valley State University. Jeff went on to serve in the United States Marine Corps. He was a proud veteran who held his military service close to his heart.
Jeff had a love for the outdoors and found joy in hunting, fishing, hiking, grilling and boating. But more than anything, his greatest joy came from being a father. He and his daughters shared many memories, especially during time spent at the family cottage.
Jeff is a member of the Community Reformed Church.
A graveside ceremony will be held at Fort Custer National Cemetery to honor his life and service.
