Jeffery Ratz

Dear Ted and Dianne, Jeff will always be fondly remembered. His strength and determination were to be admired. We pray the love of God surround you during your difficult times. Our hearts go out to you and your family.

Dear Dianne and Ted: you both continue to be much in my thoughts and prayers. May you sense the peace of The Comforter and know he holds you close during these sad and difficult days.

Michele, my deepest condolences for the loss of your brother. I remember you told me about his illness and how you took good care of him. Try to be strong and just know that he is in a better place right now. Take care of yourself.

Dear Mr. and Mrs. Ratz, I extend to you my condolences at this time of the loss of your son Jeff. I will always remember him from his days at Bloorview Childrens' Hospital when I was the Head Nurse on his unit. He was always so laid back, gentle and kind and he never was involved in the many altercations of the other young men there who were so angry at life in general. I continued to know Jeff via my role at Muscular Dystrophy Canada. I will never forget Jeff.

Aunt Dianne, Uncle Ted, Michelle and Mike.
I want to commend you on a uplifting service that you helped provide everyone one with. I read the bio that Michelle did for Jeff, it certainly brought back alot of fond memories of Jeff. I was most honoured to carry Jeff at the funeral thank you very much. I know that where ever Jeff is now he is surrounded by people that love him and is in a good place. Always remember it is never good bye but until we meet again.

Although we never had the pleasure of meeting Jeff, we feel as though we knew him through the wonderful stories his mom and dad have shared with us over the years. He surely was a strong, deeply spiritual young man, and your love and pride shone from your eyes whenever you mentioned his name. Ted and Dianne, you are two very special people, and Rick and I are richer for having the privilege to be your friends. We are so sorry that we can't be there with you, but please know that you and your family are in our thoughts and prayers. God bless. With our love, Marge & Rick Landry

In loving memory.

We had the privilege of meeting Jeff in his home. He made us very welcome and we had a good time, gathered with his family. He has touched our lives in a very unique way, and we are the richer for the encounter. Our sincere condolences for your loss, Ted & Dianne, Michele & Mike. Jeff belonged to a very special family. God bless you all. With our love, Keith & Sally Waterson

I have watched you all as a family for many years. Your unconditional love for each other, the opportunities you have had to share your joys and heart aches with each other , family and friends, have taught me personally, and I know others too, to enjoy life no matter what. To be content with who you are, and never judge a book by its cover. Jeff will always inspire me to live life, with every breath I have, with the tenacity he had. My deepest heartfelt sorrow for you all Ted, Di, Michelle, and Mike. God be your Peace and Comfort.. Love Anna Marie Page.

My sincere condolences to Aunt Dianne, Uncle Ted, Michele & Mike. I send this candle in loving memory of Jeff. Love Janet
