Jeff earned many awards during his service, including Army Achievement Medals, National Defense Service Medals, Army Good Conduct Medals, and Overseas Service Ribbons. He was a loving father, grandfather and husband — a true family man. To know him, was to instantly love his goofy ways. He always had a big ole’ grin glued to his face. Jeff loved fishing, gardening, tinkering with metals, animals, volcanoes, and being outdoors. He loved laughing and telling jokes, but also giving history lessons to his kids and grandkids. Most of all, he loved taking care and providing for his family.
