Jeff was a great guy, I have wonderful memories of visiting him in Ship Harbour. Jeff was a gracious host whenever or where ever I called from; Jeff would always roll out the red carpet. Deep condolences to Margaret, Jennifer, Jody and Kimberly. Lots of Love Jamie Finlay - Posted by: Jamie B Finlay (Cousin) on: Apr 12, 2021

Our deepest sympathy for Iris and all of his family. So very sorry for your loss. Also condolences to Wendy and Marty Olson. I remember Jeff as a young boy as we grew up on the same street and sometimes babysat him and his siblings with my older sister Louise. Our prayers and thoughts are with you at this sad time. - Posted by: Marj Lavallee nee Harris (Neighbor in West Kildonan ) on: Aug 17, 2019
