Flashback Friday Post: April 4th 2026

Remembering & honoring Jeff’s memory at this year’s RARSfest which happens every FIRST Saturday in April. Jeff liked to go to any hamfests he could find but this one became a tradition once he found out about it. We would always go and stay in a hotel overnight so he could be there at the State Fairgrounds at the Jim Graham building bright & early. This year’s event was held on Jeff’s birthday so TJ & I thought this would be a perfect way to honor him on this special day. In the past, it was a family affair. Jeff & his dad would go explore the world of Amateur Radio while TJ & I explored hotels that TJ hadn’t featured on his elevator YouTube Channel then afterwards we all would find a good place to eat before heading home. TJ & I decided to just drive up for the day instead of staying in a hotel the night before as we were OK not getting there right as the doors open. We did make a plan that we would honor our tradition of exploring hotels which we found 4 of those to film for his YT Channel. The day brought back so many memories of the times we had gone to other hamfests with Jeff. It was also fun to make the new memories with TJ. Back in 2021 Jeff’s birthday had fallen on Easter Weekend and we had gone to an aviation museum and covered bridge before finding a nice place to eat over in Chapel Hill. TJ had the idea that would be a great place to eat supper on the way home from the RARSfest so that is just what we did. We hope you enjoy the videos and photos from our trip honoring the past while pressing on & traveling the road of Life.

Some of the videos from RARSfest this year that we took. More can be found on Foggy Point Light’s YT Channel at https://www.youtube.com/@foggypointlight/shorts

The above photos are from Stoney River Steakhouse taken this year on April 4th 2026 but we are also including a Flashback Video from 2021 of our family’s outing in April celebrating Our Risen Savior Jesus Christ over Easter Weekend plus celebrating Jeff’s birthday.

As always we want to remind the readers of this blog post that this life is not all there is. We have eternal hope of being reunited with our loved ones who had accepted God’s Redemption Plan before they left this world. You can have that same hope and if you would like to find out more about developing a relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ, please visit http://www.peacewithgod.net

Remembering & Honoring Jeff’s Legacy as an Author

Jeff has been gone from this earth for a little over 2 years & 8 months. His family & friends still recall fond memories of him and miss him dearly. Shortly after Jeff’s entrance into Heaven in 2022, his classmates from high school helped contribute to having a Tribute Paver Stone installed at one of the favorite places and ministry that Jeff loved to visit and support in Charlotte, NC. The Paver Stone honors the legacy of Jeff’s first novel “Foggy Point Light” which is Volume One in the FPL Trilogy. It is located on the pathway in front of the 1927 Graham Homeplace at the Billy Graham Library. Jeff would be pleased because this was a gift of love from dear friends and family plus the paver stone program helps the BGEA in their mission to promote the Gospel of Jesus Christ who Jeff accepted as his personal Lord and Savior. Below is a picture of the Tribute Paver Stone. Special thanks to Roger for taking this photo and sending it to us and the many friends of Jeff who contributed to this Paver Stone.

Honoring Jeff’s Legacy as an Author Continues with a Flight Path Brick for Volume Two in the FPL Trilogy “Ripples: Return to Foggy Point Light” Installed in May 2024 at the Newly Opened Sullenberger Aviation Museum in Charlotte, NC.

Jeff would be thrilled with this brick located on the Flight Path at SAM because he loved everything about aviation and the brick program helps the museum promote educational and fun aspects of the world of aviation. The museum was known as the Carolinas Aviation Museum which closed in 2019 and has just recently this year reopened in a new larger location at the Charlotte Douglas International Airport along with a new name honoring the pilot of “The Miracle on the Hudson” plane, Captain Chesley “Sully” Sullenberger. Jeff was looking forward to the museum reopening so Julie and TJ (Jeff’s wife & son) decided it would be a fitting tribute to his memory in supporting the museum that was dear to Jeff’s heart and also to continue to honor Jeff’s Legacy as an author of his second novel “Ripples Return to Foggy Point Light” Volume Two of the FPL Trilogy.

Both Volumes of the FPL Trilogy are available in paperbacks which can be purchased through Amazon, Books A Million, Barnes & Noble. They are also available in Kindle, Nook & iBooks platforms.

Below are the links to videos on the Foggy Point Light’s YouTube Channel showcasing the above bricks at the BGL and SAM.

If Jeff was still here, he would definitely encourage you to get to know Jesus through a relationship with Him as your Savior. Then you can experience the comfort and assurance of the Holy Spirit in your life as well. Jesus lives and he is waiting for you to get to know Him.
