I remember Jeff as a phenomenal artist at NUSC in New London, CT. He was so quick in his ability to generate a drawing or cartoon that encapsulated the moment. He is sorely missed in this all too serious day and age.

I'm so sorry to see this announcement. I had not seen Jeff since I was a small child until he came to my parents' funerals. It was good to connect again, however briefly. Our means of communicating since then had not worked, and now I see why. He will be missed by many I'm sure, including this "long-lost" cousin.

I worked for Jeff Owens from 1994 until he retired. He was a great friend and the best boss I ever had. Jeff had a way of putting people at ease and was one of the most entertaining individuals I have ever met. Most of the time it was like working in a sitcom because of the many laughs we shared. He will be sorely missed, and I extend my condolences to his family, but I know that wherever Jeff is, he is still making people laugh.
