Jeff and I were friends and dive buddies back in the 80's when life was much simpler. This picture is one I took of Jeff while he and I were Dive Masters on the Vision for Truth Aquatics out of Santa Barbera. Rest in peace old friend.

Was saddened to hear that Jeff is no longer with us. He was my boss and friend and was in my wedding party. He always was a joy to be around. He will be missed by many and wish his family all the best.

I went to high school and UNC with Jeff. I never saw Jeff without Bob McGrane. They were inseparable during that time! Jeff always had that smile. Sorry for your loss.
