To Jeff's family, I am so sorry for your loss. He had more lives to touch, and his time here was cut short. Most people can remember their childhood playmates, and I have the happiest memories with him!! As my children play outside, I often think of our little crew growing up on Orchard Avenue in Portage.
Sending prayers to your family.

Happy childhood memories with Jeff..:)
