My Sincere Condolences goes out to his family and friends. And a special thank you to His Grandson Jefferson for taking care of him in his final days.
Jeff and I camped together a few summers on "His" mountain after the loss of his youngest son Darren. Darren and I were friends for many years before becoming my Brother-in-law.
It was a privilege to get to know Jeff a bit.
He always had a story to tell and loved hearing others stories around a campfire as well.
Before ever even knowing him or his son,I had spent many years growing up in the same area each summer and fall with my grandfather and grandmother who passed away when I was fairly young.
Jeff showed me place after place on adventures on that mountain and surrounding area where I hadn't been since I was 10-11 years old with my grandparents.
He brought many wonderful memories back out of the forgotten places in my mind and I am forever grateful for those few summers he and I shared together.
