Jeff and I were in the same homeroom for three years. Daily, he'd run up the bleachers to the top to sit while I sat at the bottom but always tried to say hi as he ran by. He was very nice and I remember him all these years later. Condolences.

Dear Patty & family:
My heart is sad today after reading of Jeff's sudden passing. I lost my son, Mike, the same way in 2016 and dealing with the suddeness is an added pain to bear.
Jeff was a good friend to my Lisa, and I never heard a bad word said about him. He was sooooo handsome, too.
Patty... Our lives and our children's lives have been intertwined since the late 60s. I'm sorry that our paths cross again in this sad way.

I have such fond memories of Jeff in our late teens and early twenties. He was always a good friend who could chase away any of my heartaches with just his smile. Such a wonderful guy.

Pat and family - we are saddened to hear of Jeff's passing. In another time, in a happier place, you and Jeff will meet again. May there be comfort knowing that someone as special as Jeff will never be forgotten. Those we love never truly leave us. There are things that death can not touch.

So sad to hear of Jeff's passing. We lived in the same neighborhood and our parents were friends when we were very young, so we spent time as littles.
Pat and Jim, so sorry you have to see a child pass. Never easy; so glad to know he is resting with Jesus in the throne room.
