I had the opportunity to work with Jeff several camping seasons at Pioneer Scout Reservation in the early 1980's. I have many fond memories of Jeff cruising around PSR on ATV's or a pick-up truck bringing materials out to the campsites. I'm saddened to hear of his passing. He will be missed by all those that he touched.

Dear Dreier Family,

I am so sorry to hear of Jeff's passing. He left us far too soon. Some of my fondest memories are of those wonderful days of our youth at Miakonda and Pioneer. Jeff, Dave and the Dreier Family will always be a part of those grand places, as much as the trees and campfires. Jeff was a blessing and a good friend. Peace to those he leaves behind. You are all in my thoughts and prayers.

Friends always,
Chuck Spitler

To the Dreier Family,
Jeff and I worked together briefly at Avaya. We often spoke about our children, being old dads the both of us. He was an honest and hard working gentleman in my eyes and the eyes of his peers. I'm glad we got a chance to speak a few times after I left Avaya. He is someone I'll always remember fondly.

Our condolences and deepest sympathy,

Bob, Carolyn, Danny and Kevin Miller,

I would like to convey my deepest sympathy to the Dreier family. I worked with Jeff at Avaya in the Cleveland office. Often times I was sent to Toledo to help Jeff or he came to Cleveland to work with me. Jeff could always make me laugh with his dry sense of humor. I could always depend on Jeff to help me out of a bind with his knowledge and expertise. Jeff always talked about his family and I could tell what a devoted father he was. He was so proud of his children!! I will miss him.

My thoughts and prayers are with you. Jeff is going to be missed by many. Billy is going to miss "hangin out with him." Diane don't forget to lean on your friends. I am available 24/7. I am just not usually a morning person, but I can be "just for you." You are such a strong woman. Matthew and Heidi, your dad loved you so much and was so proud of you. He would have done anything for you. Time will heal and you have lots of great memories to hold on to. You have lots of family and friends who want to help you through this tough time. It doesn't mean you are weak if you ask for things or lean on those who want to help. Everything happens for a reason. God only knows what could have happened in the future. Jeff will never have to suffer any pain. God has a way of challenging us to make us stronger. You all will be much stronger as time goes on. My heart aches for you. I love all of you. Hang in there. I am here for you.

Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you. Jeff was such a great guy and Billy will miss "hangin out with him". Diane you are such a strong person but don't forget all your friends that you can count on. I am available 24/7. I am just not a morning person but I can be "just for you". Matthew and Heidi, your dad loved you so much and was so proud of you. He would do anything for you. Time will heal and you have lots of memories to hold on to. Take advantage of all the family and friends who want to help you through this tough time. Don't be afraid to ask for anything. It doesn't make weak. Everything happens for a reason. God only knows what could have happened in the future and just think, Jeff will never have to suffer any pain. God has a way of challenging us to strengthen us and ALL of you will be even stronger as time goes on. My heart aches for you and hope I can help you. I love all of you. Hang in there.
