Condolences & Memories (15 entries)

  • Jeff and I went to RRC together and I still remember all the laughs we had. Such a sweet guy, and he was so happy when he met Sarah. We hadn’t spoken since 2000 and I wondered what he was up to. It’s shocking and sad to learn we lost him 18 years ago. I wish we’d stayed in touch. I’m sorry for your loss, even after all these years. I wish I could have given my condolences sooner. But know that even though I hadn’t seen him in 23 years he still pops into my head now and then. - Posted by: Alan Simpson (Friend ) on: Nov 17, 2023

  • I just wanted to let Jeff's family know that I've never forgotten him and when I look at my boys I think of him often. I try and live my life every day hoping he'd be proud of me and wishing he was here with us today. I especially want to wish his son Matt the best and to let him know how important his dad was to everyone. I miss him terribly every day. - Posted by: Jeff Oshoway (Friend) on: Nov 21, 2017

  • 11 Years have gone by since your passing. It hasn't been the same without you. So many memories of us playing around and coming over to visit. I always loved driving down the back roads to your place, being filled with excitement and a smile on my face. Only if you could see me now I think we'd be closer than anything more than before. You had such a big influence to me, if it weren't for you I wouldn't know how great Star Wars was. This is probably the closest I'll get to sending you a letter. God I miss you Uncle, we all miss you especially your son Matty and it hard for us sometimes because he's a lot like you the walk, the talk, and attitude. Well I know one day we'll see each other again and will ever have the stories to tell you. Love you Uncle Jeff, sincerely your Nephew Brandon - Posted by: Bradon () on: Jan 19, 2016

  • Very saddened to hear of Jeff's passing. Jeff and I were very good friends in junior high and high school. We helped each other endure those difficult adolescent years. I have fond memories of the two of us biking to Skinners, hitting balls at the batting cages, playing arcades, sledding, bowling, playing pool, and going to the Garry Theatre together. We even got into a couple of "fender benders" together. A good listener and very kind friend with a good sense of humor. I am a better person for having known him. My condolences to the family. - Posted by: Ryan Cormack (Friend) on: Oct 26, 2005
