May God’s Peace be with your family. I am personally proud to have been able to call Jeff my nephew. Such a beautiful soul he is!
Oh sweet Mary, I know that your heart is broken at this time. You have been a devoted and loving mother/caregiver to Jeff for a long time. I pray that your faith provides you comfort and peace during this time, and in the days ahead. If everyone should be as blessed as Jeff was to have you for his mother. I am sending you loving warm hugs, Denise Bayer ( 1993 Mehlville High swimnastics class)

Sheri and I are so sorry! Jeff has been a part of our lives since he was about 2 years old. The world will be a poorer place without his presence, but Heaven is getting a “real winner”. We are always here for you Matt and Mary.
So sorry for your loss. Jeff was an inspiration. Keeping you in our thoughts and prayers.

I have such fond memories of directing a HEC (Handicapped Encounter Christ) retreat with Jeff. It was a baseball theme and he made sure everyone had their “walk up song” cued up to be played when them came up front.
Rest in power and peace, Jeff.
We at the Recreation Council of Greater St Louis are so sorry to learn of Jeffery’s passing. May you find peace in your memories of Jeffery.
