Thinking of you Jeff. Connected with Ron & Howard a few weeks ago and brought back so many warm memories of you and your family. i use the all purpose pocket tool you designed all the time, always with a smile. You may be gone physically but you and your extended family live on in all of us. Valerie Ng (your 1st cousin, once removed :-))

It's been 3 years now. Not a day goes by that I don't think of you, miss you ... wishing you were somehow here again. But my life has been busy caring for our home and grandchildren. Rosie Fong was born to Michael and Katie October 2019. She's a beautiful happy, smart toddler now. Soon, we will all go to Fairy Tale Town to visit your memorial bench at The Crooked Mile, a place we enjoyed with our sons and their children many times.
Tomorrow is Thanksgiving. I'm thankful to have walked through life with you for 43 years. When I think of love, I think of you.

It's been a year today Jeff ... i miss you everyday.
I miss your company. Your friendship. Our conversation. Your wit. Your touch. Your handsome face. Your wonderful smile. Your love. I was so incredibly lucky to have found you in this world. You've left me with 3 loving sons, their wonderful wives and 5 grandchildren. Your newest grandson is named Anderson Jeffery Fong. Your family legacy continues to grow.
My Love, until our souls embrace again,
watch over me.

Jeff was a gentle and helpful man. I remember his office full of stacks of files and publications. Always filled with projects. Once I asked him for a particular document. Without missing a beat, he went to the right stack and pulled out the document. Funny thing was, he always knew where each document was. And he always had time to help a fellow worker, share a story or a smile. He will be sorely missed and remembered for a long time.

David and family,

I never met Jeffery, but seeing David interact with Anna, Alex and friends shows that he was raised by amazing people. My heart goes out to everyone, it is hard to lose someone dear to you regardless of if it is expected or unexpected. May the good memories help get everyone though the rough days ahead.
