The kid’s friends also called Jeff “Dad” and he loved them all.
The highlight of Jeff’s life was spending time with his grandkids. He loved attending Kayden’s football games and was so proud of them when they won the state championships. Jeff was a friend to all; his presence will be deeply missed.

“A limb has fallen from the family tree that says grieve not for me, remember the best times, the laughter, the song. The good life I lived while I was strong.”
