A week ago I made mom's favorite Christmas cookies and remembered you.
Drew we made us your famous clam linguine and we remembered you.
Today Tom is grilling lamb chops and we remember you.
In the deep corner of my refrigerator I still have a jar of your chutney that you sent to me a week before you passed away. I remember you.
Thankful for the memories of cooking together in kitchens everywhere.
Always miss you at Christmas and always will.
Love you big brother.

I am deeply missing Jeff this year. When putting the lights on the tree, memories flooded in about traditions that we as a family cherished at Christmas.
Jeff was my best friend, my closest confidant, the person I would go to for comfort and direction.
He was funny, fun loving, never had a bad thing to say about anyone, looked at the good in people, and loved family.
He made every holiday special with his love of good food, great music, adventures, and traditions.
I love you Jeff and there is rarely a day that I am not reminded of how much I miss you in my life.

I too have been missing Jeff. You never know what impact a person is having on your life until they're no longer a part of it. Jeff was my mentor, friend and the closest thing I had to a dad - he was an awesome person and I feel so very blessed to have had the opportunity to have known him. I continue to pray for Jeff and his family that they all have been able to find peace.

For some reason, thoughts of my friend, Jeff, came to mind. He was witty, funny and great to work with. He retained our company to assist Farmers in corporate communications. My wife and I always looked forward to Marly's original drawing Christmas cards. Over the years, my prayers have been with Catherine, Marly and James. And I have thanked God that I was blessed to have known a very good man.

Everyday I miss my brother, he was my best buddy as far back as I can remember and an all around great guy!

I've been an agent for over 20 years and just wanted to say that I thought Mr Beyer was one of the good guys. He struck me as a very nice executive which sounds unlikely, but to me an easy call. I was sorry when he died and glad for an inclusive, kind person that must be missed so much. Sincerely, Bill Purcell @ Studio City, CA

It's been a while since Jeff's passing, but I still think of him often and miss him very much. It's strange how some people can make such a strong and lasting impression on your life. Jeff was one of those people. He was so bright, intelligent, charming, witty and compassionate. Sometimes we laughed together so hard that we cried. He was also brilliant at his work, of course, and had a wonderful ability to get to the core of an issue - and handle it with a deft touch. We all just loved to be around him. My heartfelt thoughts to Catherine and family.

I just recently heard about Jeff's passing and wanted to express my deepest sympathy. I worked at Farmers for six years, leaving in late 2000. But I remember Jeff as a terrific speaker and presenter, a gentleman, and always a consummate professional.

Please know that you are all in my prayers. I will miss Jeff dearly as he played such an important part in my life from the moment I first joined Farmers as an intern. I'd love Jeff to know just how influencial he was in my career and how appreciative I am of every opportunity he gave me. He will truly be missed.

My prayers go out to you and your family. Even with the peace that comes from faith, there remains the pure sorrow that comes from your love one no longer being there for you.
I knew Jeff as part of the Farmers Family, which for me started with my dad joining Farmers in 1956 (he was a District Manager for 43 years, deceased 2003)and me spending 35 years with Farmers.
It was always a pleasure to spend time talking with Jeff at our many conferences in LA, Presindents Council, the 75th Jubilee, Marty's retirement and all my visits to LA. Jeff was one of the most positive people I have ever meant. He believed in what he did and had passion for his work.
I am sorry I didn't have the pleasure to know much about his family, but I enjoyed reading about his involvement.
Having my husband die in 1997 and my father die in 2003, I can say that I am thankful for the memories I have because of my husband and father. May you hold on to all the good memories and as time passes, when your thoughts are are on Jeff, my wish is that it brings you smiles and good feelings.
God Bless you and your family

Mrs. Beyer and family,
Jeff was a vibrant supporter of the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children. We are very sorry for your loss. Jeff was passionate about missing and exploited children and very committed to helping them. Jeff, and the Farmers family, have been wonderful friends of NCMEC. I wanted to share with you that we are very sad to hear of his passing. Jeff had a rare quality of infusing our meetings with vision, leadership and hope. He often spoke of how much his children and his family were the reasons why he was so dedicated to helping NCMEC. My prayers are with you during this difficult time.

Letitia Stanley

Catherine and family - over the years there have been many people I've met in business - there are few that made such a sweet and lasting impression. Jeff always went out of his way to help me and always acted as though I was a long time friend even though I might have only see him once every year or so. You and Jeff both have always been kind and gracious to Kevin and I as if we had known you personally for years. The last time we saw you was in Niagara Falls in 2006 and I'm so glad we did. Jeff was a warm, compassionate and giving person and I will miss the opportunity to work with him - it was wonderful to know him and work with him. My prayers are lifted for you and your family each day.
Love, Letitia Stanley & family.

It was a pleasure working with Jeff during our years together at the I.I.I. His terrific personality and topnotch professionalism made him a great friend to all who knew and worked with him.

Words can not express the deep sadness we feel at the loss of such a great man. Catherine, I remember when we all went to see Paul McCartney, and Jeff and I were belting out "Hey Jude". I have always thought of him whenever I hear that song. I know that John speaks often of when he babysat your dog. He also has said there was not a more gifted speaker then Jeff Beyer. What a wonderful man with a beautiful soul and an even bigger heart. May God be with you, Marly, and James at this very difficult time. We love you very much.

At six months pregnant with my first child, I started a new job in the department Jeff led. He welcomed me with open arms and helped quell my terror of impending parenthood with stories of the great joy his own children and wife had brought him over the years.
In the very short time I had the honor of knowing him, Jeff shared many tales of inspiration and humor. His profound ability for putting people at ease and cutting through the nonsense was apparent from the start. The trust he inspired in his team was palpable, inspiring, and contagious.
When I spoke of my fear of labor, he spoke with pride of how his wife managed, at 9 months pregnant, to complete an important project and tie up every last bit without breaking a sweat-- before going into labor with perfect timing. He laughed about being rained on as he changed a tire on their car in the middle of the night because it would be quicker than getting a cab in the stormy Northwest.
His generosity of spirit inspired tears of joy in a colleague known for his stoicism. His candor and genuine interest in what folks had to say inspired trust in even those known for their skepticism. His graciousness was independent of tenure or title, and without even a remote veil of quid pro quo.
I am humbled to have met and known him, however briefly. He was, and will continue to be, an inspiration.
My heart goes out to his many friends and especially to his family.
Ben & Nancy Tucker

Dear Catherine, Marly, and James,
We cannot even begin to express the depth of our sadness at the tragic loss of Jeff. We both worked with him from the day he started with Farmers. He was always the consummate professional--calm in a crisis, witty and understated. He was an advocate for his employees and for Farmers. Jeff was a mentor to many within the organization, and drew no distinctions of salary grade or position--he treated everyone with unfailing courtesy and respect. Jeff's sense of humor was delightful and contagious.
We pray that you will draw strength and comfort from your many loving memories and from the love of family and friends.

Dear Catherine, Marly and James,
John Millen caught up with me in Atlanta to relay the tragic news of Jeff's loss. Leslie and I extend to you and all of your family our heartfelt condolences and wishes for comfort and strength in your grief.
Throughout the decades of our friendship and professional association, Jeff and I collaborated in many challenging tasks on behalf of the insurers who employed us. During the past couple of days, however, all of those once noteworthy professional accomplishments have been obscured by other memories -- mostly of the FUN we had, while doing our jobs as well as while engaged in nonremunerative endeavors. Wherever we were, and whatever we did, the place always rang with Jeff's charm and laughter. His wit was among the sharpest I have ever known, but never unkind. He carried himself with dignity and purpose, but had an "everyman" demeanor that endeared him to all.
Marly and James, in all of the years since I have seen you, I am sure you have grown to be as beautiful and talented as you were as children. I had the pleasure of enjoying many evenings at your parents' home, and none was complete until we'd payed with the dog (Kansas?), and until Marly and James had demonstrated their most recently acquired cultural, academic or athletic skills under the proud and loving gaze of their parents. It was a privilege to be able to share those times with you.
Catherine, after the insurance "community," as it now calls itself, and I parted paths, I made the regrettable mistake of not staying in touch with some good and valued friends. I wish I had done a better job with you and Jeff.
Many, many years ago when I recommended Jeff to Ed Mathews for his first job at Farmers, I did so by telling him, "Jeff is the brightest star in the III." His star shines now in the highest place of all.
God bless you.
Jim Snyder

Dear Catherine, Marly and James,
I was devastated when I heard of Jeff's passing and I send my heartfelt feelings of sadness as well as thoughts of peace to you.
Jeff was the most wonderful man I ever worked for. He had a way of bringing out the best in people.
The last time I saw him was on a Saturday in March 2007, when I was cleaning out my cubicle and he was cleaning out his office. I yelled, "Jeff," to him and he walked towards me, smiling, without hesitation. He saw a print on the wall behind me that was his brother's, he said, and he would have forgotten it if it weren't for me. We hugged, I gave him a kiss and wished him the best.
Jeff is a man who will be sorely missed by many, many people. He made a huge difference in his work life, his community and the United States, with his vision of a better future for all ethnicities.
I'm so terribly sorry for your loss and wish there was something I could do to make it easier. I hope my words help a little.
Sincerely,
Linda Lewis

Jeff was always friendly to all he met no matter where you were in the Farmers Family. I never saw Jeff that he did not go out of his way to say hi and ask how things were going in the field. As an agent I appreciate his work in helping to brand the Farmers name.
God be with you in your time of loss.

Catherine, you and Marly and James are in our thoughts and prayers. Those seven years I worked with Jeff in communications at Farmers still make me smile. Jeff made corporate life fun because of his intelligence, his charm, and, especially, his wit. As we lived through corporate takeovers, legislative attacks and natural and man-made disasters, Jeff's humor would allow us to transcend the mundane with irony, sarcasm and some well-placed practical jokes. As I travel the country consulting I constantly run into people who've known and appreciated Jeff. Let's all keep carrying these fond memories of a great person.
Diane Portantiere

To Catherine, Marly and James -- I am so sad over this loss. I worked with Jeff indirectly for the last 25 years or so and we became good friends. He was a special man and always talked about his family. Hey Jeff, Room 2616 at the Waldorf will never be the same. May you rest in peace.

Dear Catherine, Marly and James: We join you and your extended family in mourning the loss of Jeff. He was always there for the Natural History Museum--ready to find support for a travelling exhibit, helping with our publicity and communications efforts, leading the board in a strategic planning process, etc etc. He was warm and thoughtful and fun and easy to work with, and his efforts always came with such modesty that it was easy to lose sight of all his many contributions. We will remember his ever-present smile and easygoing manner as long as there is a Natural History Museum in LA. Sincerely, Paul and Heather
