To all the Winters. Jeff was my roommate most of the time he went to APU. We also attended First United Methodist in Anchorage and worked with the high school youth group at the church. Jeff was the most accepting, giving, and welcoming person I ever knew. He always was willing to lend a hand and never had a bad word to say about anyone. On top of being a great guy and roommate, he took care of my dogs anytime I traveled and the dogs seem to think he was as much an owner as I was. We stayed in touch over the years, shared a laugh, listened to each other, shared joys and sorrows, and always ended with a God Bless.Wishing you peace and comfort during this difficult time.Mark, Cheryl and Joseph Anderson

Peggy, Jennifer, family and friends. Eugene and I express our sincere sympathy in such an impactful loss of a son, a big brother, a trust worthy friend. My heart can't seem to fathom I will never be able to speak with him again. But there is One who can and will on my behalf. I take solace in that fact. Praying grace for you all in this journey to face the issues at hand with courage, boldness and strength. May you receive heavenly perspectives and peace that passes all understanding, Jeff would want this for you.

Dearest Peggy,
We were saddened to hear of Jeff passing. Very sudden! So young!
We didn't have the opportunity to know Jeff well, the last time I talked to him was at Louise and Jim's wedding (you know how long ago that was!). He and I talked about his attending college in AK. I see that he had made a wonderful life with you and, his wife, and children. If you need anything at all and we can help, give us a call.
All our love
Carol Thompson-Medina and Vincent

To Jeffs wife and kids...Peggy (always known as Mrs. Winters to me) and Jennifer, I am grieving with you. I have very fond memories of Jeff. I knew him when his dad was pastor at Hollywood Hills United Methodist Church. I posted some memories on my Facebook page along with a picture I stole from Jennifer s page. I would gladly accept a friend request if you would like to read it. I'm praying for you during this difficult time.
Love
