Oh Jeffy how I am going to miss you. I could not have asked for a more wonderful brother to grow up with, to play with, to hear your songs -- you were pure sunshine. No one can ever replace you, but you will live on in the hearts of those of us who loved you. That is a promise.

Dear Barbara:
I’m saddened to hear about Jeff’s passing. He was a wonderful boss and friend. Always happy and lighted up talking about you and his family. He will leave an empty place in my heart because of his sweet personality. He shared a couple of his songs with me which were wonderful. I know he will truly be watching over each n every one of you!

Dear Barbara,
We are so saddened by hearing of Jeff. He was such a wonderful person and great neighbor. We have many fond memories of living next door in Ravinia. Ravinia lost a great son. We will always remember how kind, sweet and devoted he was to you and the girls. You are in our thoughts and prayers.
