I have known Jeffrey for many years from Ukrop's and then Martin's. He was one of the kindest, friendliest, and most giving people I've ever known. He always looked out for everyone at Ukrop's/Martin's, whether it was employee or customer.
The news of his death comes as a great shock and we are all deeply saddened by his loss. Our thoughts and prayers are with Zina, Haley, Ian, his grandchildren and all family and friends. May God surround each of you with His loving arms and bring you the peace that surpasses all understanding.
