Jeff was a simple man who had an easy-going personality and was adored by many. Jeff was very funny whether he was making jokes or telling stories of the past which he loved to do. He enjoyed attending basketball games in the area along with fishing, playing cards, hanging out with friends, and living life to the fullest. Jeff was all about fun, family, and friends. He lived his life for “today” because he believed that tomorrow is never promised and that you never know when it is your time to go.

He positively impacted our community in a variety of ways. He will be truly missed. Jeff will forever remain alive in our hearts. May his soul Rest in Peace in Heaven.
