Jeff was passionate about his family. Spending time together laughing. Sharing stories and good eats. He loved being with family in the outdoors, camping, fishing, cooking over an open fire. He was an avid home chef of his own creations, taking great pleasure when cooking for others. He loved getting together for coffee and pastries, catching up on everyone’s lives.
Jeff had a beautiful heart for others with the ability to connect to a variety of people and personalities. He would help a stranger in need, welcoming him as a friend. He always shared a good laugh along with words of encouragement.
Jeff’s career centered around road construction where he was an operator, supervisor and applications specialist. He focused his expertise in soil stabilization, customizing and creating equipment, and fine tuning established applications. Jeff made himself available to mentor those wanting to learn more. He was respected and loved by all of his work family, leaving an impression with his funny comments and incredible knowledge of his field. It’s even been said that The Lord called Jeff home early to redesign and build the gates of heaven!
As Jeff would often say, “Today is a good day to have a good day.” May it be so.

A true and selfless friend he was. A modest man and great mentor to me in my early carrier, who could teach with such patience and passion, that it always turned into fun. The short time it was between him falling ill and his passing should all remind us to spend as much time as possible with the people we love.
Dearest Jeff:
I will always remember your dad with a smile on his face and the deep love he had for all his children.
May perpetual light shine upon him .
All my love
Claudia
