Hello,
I am a stranger. I am not sure if you will receive this, but I had to send it, hoping that you will. I had the privilege of meeting Jeff at a bookstore in Bedford, in 2008. He saw me looking at various business books and we started a conversation. He said something along the lines of “Let me guess, you are a woman trying to work in a man’s world”. We talked for some time and then he offered me a couple of books to read. He was such an enlightened human, so kind, so thoughtful, so generous. I was just going through some things and came across these books, some 12 years later. I decided to check the internet for his whereabouts with the intention of returning these books, which I should have done so many years ago. I am sorry that I didn’t return these and I wanted to reach out to tell you, his family, about the impact that he had on a strangers life, in a bookstore, so many years ago. I am so very sorry for your loss. Kate.

My sympathies to the family for the loss of Jeffrey. Having its toll, are ‘unforeseen occurrences’ or accidents. (Ecclesiastes 9:11) But there is a hope in the Bible of the resurrection that “the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs (in God’s memory) will hear his voice.” (John 5:28) Please accept these thoughts.

I had the privelege of getting to know Mac ,which is how he was introduced to me through our mutual friend Phil Corning. He was such a great sport as we walked the Bedford waterfront path on many evenings last summer and kept me entertained with his vast knowledge on so many topics. He will be missed. My sympathies to his family.

Anne, I am so sorry that you are grieving the loss of your son. For a mother it must be the most devastating sense of grief. Words of sympathy do not seem adequate at a time like this. Thinking of you and yours as you deal with the sorrow of losing your much loved Jeffrey.

Dear Anne, Brian and Pam, we are so sorry to hear about Jeff’s death. We understand that no words will take away the pain you are feeling right now, but our thoughts are with you. We wanted you all to know that both Karla and myself have such fantastic memories of Jeff, he was always so kind to us. He had such a big personality, positive energy and a great sense of humor. I still laugh out loud thinking of the fun we had with Jeff on many of our golf trips. He touched a lot of people in very positive ways! Sadly it had been so long since we last saw Jeff, but we have wonderful memories that will forever stay with us.
Karla and Andrew

I would like to say how sorry I am to hear of Jeff’s death. I taught Jeff at C.P. Allen High School, and it was such a pleasure to know him. I have been a tour guide at Ambassatours since my retirement. I didn’t realize that he worked there as well and I was delighted to see him and talk and joke with him whenever we saw each other. We often talked about the days at CPA. Please know that he will always be remembered in my thoughts and prayers. God bless you all.

My deepest sympathy to Jeff’s family.
Having worked with him as a coordinator and him a guide, was one of my most colourful and entertaining experiences at the waterfront.
If I wanted him to be the guide on the next bus, I could never find him, if I asked him not to talk politics or health insurance with our American guest, he would, and, if I asked him to stop talking when the tour ended , he won’t. The bus,as it returned, would be in a total uproar of laughter or hand clapping. He always received pleasant comments. God, he was good at entertaining ! He will be missed by all ! ..May he rest in Peace.

Oh Anne I just read this and I’m so sorry to hear it! What a terrible shock it must be. He always seemed so personable and interested in people. I can’t help but wonder how about differently his life would have been if not for that terrible bike accident. You were always such a wonderful mother and I know you did everything possible to help him whenever you could. I can’t possibly imagine how you must feel – the death of a child must be so painful. It must help to have Pamela and Brian and their families at a time like this. My thoughts are certainly with you and I’ll see you on Thursday.
