Jeff was liked and loved by a mass of people who are sad to lose him. He now rests in a better place until we are all rejoined in God's House. His was but a short life and he lived his young years to the fullest. He is and will be missed everyday by not only his entire family, but those of us who knew and loved him in friendship. His main goal in life was to just be liked and accepted by his peers and friends.

 
A Song to an Angel
4 Jeff 
from Jason

Never thought you would be gone
But when you were here you were never alone.
Always had me right by your side
Rain fell constantly the day you died.

Always was honest, you never lied
The rain must be tears from Cupid's eyes.
Mevertheless, I got you in my heart
And I'll never let that be torn apart.

And we were always the best of friends
It'll be the same when we meet again.
I'll never forget the times we shared
Even though you made me have bright orange hair.

Time passes by and as tears fall
It'll be me and you at God's last call.
Wish things could go back the way they were
But I guess some things just don't have a cure.

You always had my back, always stayed true
Without you here, I don't know what to do.
I know you're up there lookin' down
I can feel your arms around me right about now.

But don't worry cause I can make it through.
Just wrote to say that I LOVE YOU.


In God's loving arms
