To the family,
Jeff was our neighbor for over 18 years. He was certainly proud of Paige and those adorable grandsons.
It's going to be strange not seeing him out and about and having the occasional chat about our families.
Rest in peace dear neighbor.

"Through the eyes of a friend"
Carol, Gerald, Lawrence and Annette, Jeff's wishes for each of you were health, happiness and peace.
Paige, you were the "apple" of his eye.
Jeff could not wait to get home and spend time with his three "little men".
Pam, Eddie and Joey, Jeff was proud to be your brother, often speaking of your accomplishments.
Granny Lucy, while working with Jeff at Rebb often he would tell me what you had fixed him for supper and how he cherished time spent with you.
Other family members and friends, Jeff often spoke of those he saw at various places.
To the family and friends of Jeff, may God wrap His loving arms around each of you and bring peace to you.

"Through the eyes of a friend"
Carol, Gerald, Lawrence and Annette, Jeff's wishes for each of you were health,happiness and peace.
Paige, you were the "apple" of his eye.
Jeff was always excited to get home and spend time with his three "little men".
Pam, Eddie and Joey, Jeff was so proud to be your brother, often speaking of your accomplishments.
Granny Lucy,while working with Jeff at Rebb he would often tell me what you had fixed him for supper and how much he cherished time spent with you.
Other family members and friends,
often Jeff would speak of seeing you at
family gatherings or just running into
you at different places.
Being a friend and coworker of Jeff one thing I soon realized, Jeff was a perfectionist. Each thing had to be done in detail and to perfection.That being said; God created a perfect world, sin entered the world by mankind making it difficult for man to do all things in a perfect way. I am sure those who are perfectionist struggle with this each day.
To each family member and friend, may God wrap His loving arms around you bring peace to you at this time.
