Builder of Dreams, Friendships and HomesIn the early morning hours on Saturday August 11, 2012 Jeff passed on peacefully after a very long debilitating illness. We will miss his great smile and wonderful presence in our life.Through his lifetime, it was his desire to be a perfectionist at anything he undertook to do. He developed great work skills starting at the age of eleven and was a successful and extremely talented man. There was nothing he could not figure out or solve. He acquired many wonderful and lasting friendships and truly loved each person.Throughout his life he continued to learn and improve his interests and abilities in the building business. He was respected highly in that field.He loved the outdoors. The beautiful mountains, lakes and streams. He was also fond of the great ocean and loved to take many beautiful pictures.One thing that was extra thrilling to him was riding the snowmobile when time allowed.He was a handsome, strong, caring, loving man who enjoyed life to the fullest until his illness.He was born to Glade M.
