“In a world of givers and takers, Jeff was both. He loved to take in what life had to offer. He pursued life with passion and a grateful heart. He was also curious and intrigued about learning how things work in life. His appetite for learning would have him taking things apart so he would have a better understanding of the design and mechanics of the items. He was also a giver, a friend to anybody who needed one. He became like a 2nd dad to a youth that had lost his dad in his teen years so much so that this youth started calling Jeff “dad”. His motto in life was to be a beacon of light that God had instilled in him. I think that is why he loved lighthouses so much. They have a purpose but also add to the landscape of where they are built. A lighthouse is a navigational tool for sailors of the sea to warn of danger and guide one to safety but they also hold an attraction to ones who stay inland as well. Jeff lived life to the fullest that he could possibly live. He was a great son, husband and father who had many interests and hobbies to keep him busy and fulfilled; one of those interests was to become a writer. One of his dreams took 10 years to come to reality. In Jeff’s own words, “10 years means 7 years thinking about the story and 3 years writing.” The final edition of Foggy Point Light was totally different than what he had originally imagined it to be and he credits God for the story as it seemed to write itself. Jeff’s original intent for Foggy Point Light was to be one book but then as the story developed, Jeff knew it was destined to be a trilogy. I miss Jeff more than words could ever express but thankfully memories of the time we did have together will continue to keep him forever in my heart.”
Another one of Jeff’s passions was to sing and he enjoyed being a member of our church choir for years. Below is a video of Jeff singing with the UHBC Choir in 2004 for a Christmas Special. It is just one of many videos that we have of Jeff singing and I thought this might be a good Christmas card from Foggy Point Light in 2024. May each and every one of you be blessed as we ponder the real reason for the season which is Christ The Lord who came down to redeem mankind with the gift of Eternal Salvation. Merry Christmas!
If Jeff was still here, he would definitely encourage you to get to know Jesus through a relationship with Him as your Savior if you haven’t done that yet. There is nothing like experiencing the comfort and assurance of the Holy Spirit in your life especially at this time of year. Jesus lives and he is waiting for you to get to know Him.
