  1. Dear Pat and Family,
    So sorry to read of Jeff’s passing. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
    Ron & Mary

  2. Kip, Brenden and family,
    I’m so sorry to hear about the loss of your dad. I remember playing football in Chucks or your place and having you dad always taking the time to be nice to me. Even later on, he remembered who I was. I always liked and respected him. You guys are in my thoughts and prayers.
    Erik Skoog

  3. You are already missed by the Claudia Hecimovich. You always entertained us with your
    humor, songs, and wonderful comments that made for lovey company. It has been such a delight to have had you in our lives. Thank you, we are extremely grateful.

  4. So sorry to hear about Jeff. His passing brings back many memories of growing up next door. What comes to mind is how Jeff wanted to invoke that hockey tough guy demeanor, but down deep he was just a big fun loving kid with a heart of gold. He always wanted what was best for not only his family, but also his friends and neighbors. Lots of memories of hanging out down by the docks in the summer, and making skating rinks on the lake in the winter. Jeff also had an itch for fast boats and snowmobiles. One year he had some rocket of a sled that he asked for me to drag race out on the lake. I did so and came away scared as hell, but of course I couldn’t let Jeff onto my fear or he would have called me a sissy (you know, that hockey tough guy demeanor). I’ll miss Jeff. Hugs to everyone.

  5. Bro. Jeff will always be remembered for his unwavering passion for the children of the Philippines. No one could be with Jeff long without him lifting up their plight. He loved them! May his ministry continue to be contagious. Pastor David & his Forest Hills Church family
