Jeff contacted me via Facebook in January of 2010 and I'm so pleased he did. Lots of memories from the old Norwood days. We only managed to talk on the phone a few times when I was visiting Toronto as the timing never worked to get together. I didn't realize he was sick and he didn't say anything. I feel lucky to have had that connection but would sure have tried harder to get together. Our last chat was in May of that year. He posted a photo I sent him from high school and he got kidded by his son about it. Glad I got to share that photo with him and the family.

There are so many stories and great memories I have of Jeff. He was a true friend all through high school and did me the great honour of being my best man at my wedding to Bev in 1986. I have only now learned of his passing and my deepest sympathies go out to Irm and his family. Rest well good friend. Rick Barker - Posted by: Rick Barker (Friend) on: Nov 01, 2012
