I will miss Jeff. He was a wonderful person to work with. He always made me laugh especially when we got stuck on a JDE problem. He would say ok relax slow down we will get through it!!!! Even beyond work he was always so supportive. I do know how much he truly loved his son Justin and would always talk about how proud he was of him. Justin stay strong you and your family are in my prayers. Jeff you will truly be missed.

Jeff was the best cousin, friend, and neighbor I could have ever hoped for. He was my childhood hero, and he always made time for me. I have too many memories to count from hours of playing catch, tossing a football, shooting baskets, and hanging out with the coolest kid in town. Thank you for being so good to me, Jeff. I’ll see you again!

I was fortunate enough to work with Jeff for many years now in IT. He had a great way of making me laugh and helping me get through some challenging work situations. Such a great guy. Thoughts and prayers to his family.

When I think of Uncle Jeff, I think of the beach, and swimming pools! I think of Pink Floyd, backyard BBQs, and a cooler full of beers from all over the world. I think of him being a loyal father and friend. I think of all the times his address changed, and I had to keep updating my address book! I think about how we'd give him a hard time about writing letters to the airlines. I am so grateful for all the memories. You will be missed, and I hope you know how much you were loved. Praying for the peace, comfort, and hope only Jesus can give.
