Jeffrey Paul Rajchel
December 14, 1964 - October 5, 2025
Jeffrey Paul Rajchel, of Carnegie, PA, passed away peacefully on October 5, 2025, after a long and courageous battle with health issues. He was surrounded by his loved ones in his final moments. Jeffrey was the beloved son of the late Harriet Rajchel. He is survived by his children and their mother, Denise Rajchel; his daughters Jennifer Marshall (wife of Christopher Marshall) and Katelyn Craig (wife of Jeremy Craig); and his cherished grandchildren: Hayden Marshall, Grayson Marshall, Meika Craig, Maverick Craig, and Teo Craig. He is also survived by his brother James Rajchel and sister Linda Rajchel. He leaves behind his beloved dog, Duke, who was his best buddy. A passionate and talented chef, Jeffrey was one of the three founding owners of the Rockefeller's Grille in Kennedy Township - a place where his legacy carries on through the work of his daughter, Jennifer. His tenacious personality, creativity, and dedication to his craft touched many lives in the community.
Jeffrey found joy in the simple things - fishing, playing cards, and spending time with his grandchildren and family. He will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved him.
Family and friends are invited to celebrate Jeffrey's life at Rockefeller's Grille, 1833 McKees Rocks Rd., Kennedy Twp., PA 15136 on Monday, October 13th, 2025, from 2 - 6 PM where memories, laughter, and love will be shared in his honor.
