I have not seen Hoot for many years, but I do remember his face. We all use to hang out in our twenties. I was sorry to hear about him. Losing "close" friends or ones you have not seen in a long time still hurts.. God bless him and his family..

My Mom and Jeff were both at the same facility for several years. She and I loved Jeff very much. They ate their meals together everyday and he would help her and always tell me how she was doing.. He was a really nice and caring man. I thought of him often.. He will be missed..
