March 1965 - August 2026
Gone too soon. Jeff passed peacefully at his home surrounded by the whispering pines. His life was full of adventure to the end. Jeff had a gentle brilliance like no other. He could do, fix and build anything; lived his life at full speed embracing each new adventure. A Jeff of All Trades for sure! From scouting, mountain climbing, BMX racing, punk rock band guitarist, head chef, award winning ice sculptor, bike mechanic, auto mechanic, landscape artist, carpentry, home remodel restoration and long haul semi truck driver. Jeff built two homes from the ground up, sailed the ocean and local lakes and traveled the country. His quirky sense of humor stayed with him throughout. He never outgrew his love of trains, cars, cartoons and toys. Jeff photographed and saved the memorabilia of his life; he had a gentle sentimental heart. He loved the outdoors, the wildflowers in spring, sunsets and the stars. He is at peace now and hanging out with his dad and watching over us all. Forever in our hearts until we meet again.
