THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS R WITH U MY FRIEND GOD BLESS U AND UR FAMILY
Kevin was an awesome husband, father, grandfather, brother, son, and a super duper cousin. He touched the hearts of all who knew him. There’s a great void in the Jeffries family now but truly Heaven’s gain. I can see him resting in the arms of Jesus with that big smile of his. Much love to all my family
I worked with Kevin for several years at Ron’s gas station when we were just kids. Even then I always thought of Kevin as a “family man”. I can still remember him in his truck with Josh standing in the middle between him and Tina. Although I had not seen him in years, I always thought of him when I would see his truck parked along 46 as I knew he was doing what he loved. Fishing along the river. He touched the lives of many. Please accept our condolences and know that you are in our prayers.
Kevin was a great guy. He has a smile that always made made you feel welcome.I pray for you andthe boys and the Grandkids. Tina my heart is heavy for you. God bless,Becky
I just want to say how sorry I am for your loss. I worked with Kevin at Aisin. Me and him laughed and joked together as he left work that night. Kevin was a great guy and we had a lot of fun at work together. I will miss seeing him at work and again Im very sorry for your loss.
