I was fortunate to work occasionally with Jeff for a few years at Intouch. He always had a smile for me, and I could always count on him for help when I needed it. I’m so terribly sorry to hear of his passing. Wishing you all peace in what I imagine is an incredibly difficult time.
I was able to work with Jeff for several years and was lucky to call him a friend. Such an amazing guy. Keep riding that Harley forever. You will be missed… but we will meet again.
I didn’t work with Jeff for very long, but in the short time I did we became friends on Facebook, and it provides me great joy to know he had an amazing time traveling, exploring and being with friends/family.
I had the pleasure of working with Jeff over many years. I came to know him and his wife Teri. They lit up the room wherever they went. Jeff was a funny, charismatic, talented and loving guy. I’m blessed to have known him and learned from him. Rest in peace friend…you will be very missed….until we meet again.
Teri, my heart breaks for you – for all of you. I remember you leaving work for your first date with Jeff. What a happy event that turned out to be! Sending up prayers for you all.
Lynda and I are so sorry to hear of Jeff’s passing. He was such a classy guy and will be missed dearly. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and family.
Teri,
Jo and I are so sorry for you… i wish i had the chance to get to know Jeff better…
