Chuck, Jeanie, Debbie and Tanya, So sorry to hear about Jeff passing. I will keep the family in my thoughts and prayers. Jeff had an amazing personality and loved to sing in his early years. Rest In Peace, my friend.
I love you so much Dad. I am going to miss you so much.
Im so thankful you were with us for 64 years. You have been the best brother anyone could ask for. You are the kindest, sweetest person I have ever known. Heaven has a real prize now! Love and miss you terribly, but will see you again someday
Jeff you left so soon I never got to say goodbye. I wanted to thank you for being the best brother in law and friend I could hope for. I take comfort in the fact I know youre with the rest of your family in heaven. God bless you bro and I will see you on the other side.
Jeff,you were the best brother I could ever ask for,when ever I needed you,you were there for me.I have many years of wonderful memories that I will keep for ever.It just seams too sudden and too soon that I had too let you go.I love you brother.I will see you again some day.
Jeff, no words can express the sadness I feel. I remember trips you and I would take to Kentucky to visit the family cemeteries and grandma Lizzie, aunt Reba, Bobby, Cathy and the rest of the family. I remember you bonding with Erika when she was a baby and as she got older you and papa Carl loved to aggravate her and she loved it, also. “Eddie ” “odie cat ” nicknames you gave her. You took her to get candy bars everytime you see her. When I had graduated high school and knew more than my parents (and found myself without a home ) you let me come live with you. You knew how to brighten any grave moment and see the positive in the worst of our times. And those are going to be some hard shoes to fill. Love you Jeff
Jeff I will really miss you cousin. You were always really good to me and although I was really young I can still remember my 1st convertible car ride was with you in the mg. We had the wind in our hair and the sun in our faces. I just remember looking over at you and thinking Jeff is the coolest cat in the world. And you were. Your whole life. I have nothing but great memories of you. From the time you, Jane and Kyle met us all on vacation at Daytona beach to the time you and Carl took me golfing. You were always one of the nicest, kindest yet fun to be around people I have ever known. My only regret that I didn’t reach out to you more. Time has a way of getting away from me I guess. Know worries though cause I know where you are and will eventually see you again. Love you cuz. Stay cool my friend
Jeff, I hope you know how missed you are by so many people. I’m going to miss your “Good Morning” texts! We were so blessed to have you as a brother, bro-in-law and uncle to our kids. You left a huge hole in our hearts but I find peace knowing you are with your King and I’ll see you again one day. Love you forever…
