It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved, Jeffrey M Poole, who left us on October 30th, 2023. He was a devoted husband, an amazing uncle, loving son, and an exceptional brother.
Born on June 17th, 1970 in Long Beach, CA, Jeffrey was the second child of James Poole & Diane Bowlin. After moving to Arizona, he spent around 15 years working in the computer and technology field and was well respected for his hard work, dedication, and expertise. From there he was inspired to pursue his passion as a writer starting in the fantasy fiction sector and then into cozy mysteries with his favorite corgi sidekicks, Sherlock & Watson in the Corgi Case Files.
Jeffrey met the love of his life, Giliane, and they were married for 24 wonderful years. Jeffrey was a dedicated family man who cherished every moment spent with his loved ones and always putting his family's needs above his own.
Jeffrey had a love for travel and enjoyed watching movies in his free time. He was known for his subtle sarcasm, his kind heart, and his willingness to help others.
He is survived by his wife Giliane Poole, his mother, Diane Bowlin, his siblings, Jim Poole (wife Kim Poole), Jon Poole, and Keri Poole. Jeffrey also had 7 nephews and 4 nieces, along with many other family members and friends who will miss him dearly.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be made to your local ASPCA. Jeffrey will be deeply missed but never forgotten. Rest in peace.

I'm crushed. I have been devouring his books on my kindle of late while stuck in hospital waiting rooms for days on end and came to love them as a cherished distraction. I even see the mannerisms of my own corgi in his mystery series.
It was only when I reached out to social media that I discovered that we lost him right around the time that I found his work. How is it that I feel I've lost a friend I never even met?
May the cosmos be your playground.

I'll always remember our conversations about our fantasy stories and sharing our crazy ideas about our worlds. Your legacy will live on through your family and works. Miss you!

We really appreciated you and Jeff coming to our home and fixing our computer. We were so happy. Talk about it all the time. Probably 30 years ago. Sally and Harlan
