Tammy and the Tiger brothers, I am so sorry for your loss. Out of all the people I have met over these many years, Jeff is one of my favorites. Every time I think of him I smile. I can easily think of a hundred things he said or did that make me laugh every time. Even though I have not been home in a long time, I am truly going to miss him. I can't imagine how much you will. God bless you and please God, bless Jeff.

Tammy, Monk and I are so very sorry for your loss. There are no words to ease your pain but I truly feel blessed to have known Jeff. He was a true gentleman and a wonderful loyal friend. We always enjoyed our times together. The tribute video brought back some memories of how Jeff looked when I first met him till recently. Jeff was a good man and it shows through how you and he raised two sons together. Levi and Jesse are gentlemen just like him. May God be with you and your boys.
