An amazing artist and always inventing and imagining. I knew Jeff from 4th grade through 12th grade, always sharing a love of art with him and many jokes. I think of him from time to time and know the world lost a true talent.Patricia Pennington
Jeff and I shared the same birthday. I remember in grade school we both had birthday parties the same day - the boys went to his house and the girls went to mine. I'm sorry to hear that he is gone.Connelly Stewart
I was heartbroken when I found-out Jeff had died. He was a good friend and I a kind-of thought I would marry him someday but that wasn't in the stars. I have some hilarious notes written to me in class by Jeff. He was talented, funny, and under-appreciated. Love you Jeff!Donna Thompson
I'll never forget Jeff doing somersaults down the front stairs by building 1. He was not only creative but a barrell of laughs.Lisa Hall (Miller)
I have a great profile picture I drew of Jeff in art class. Didn't know he was gone. Such a great talent and sweet soul.Jenny Harrison
I took German with Jeff and in German 3 there were only 9 students or something, we had a good time. We all made this crazy bulletin board with Jeff leading the way. It depicted a "German" guy wearing lederhosen standing on a mountain saying in German "Welcome to Germany". We changed the bulletin board every few months to fit the season and it really got crazier and crazier because the guy was always in lederhosen we only changed his hat. The guy was a Pilgrim and Santa Clause and we went so far as to put bunny ears and a cotton tail on him at Easter. I think we ended the year with the German guy in a mortar board with his lederhosen. Jeff was creative, intelligent, funny and fun, his wit and talent are a loss to all.Stanley Brian Smith
I have been thinking about this for sometime now, attempting to come up with something "profound". But at the end of the day, it boils down to simply this.Jeff was absolutely one of my best friends. He was taken from all of us prematurely and most unnecessarily, and I miss him. Simple as that!!
