I was truely heartbroken to hear of Jeff's passing. My prayers and thoughts are with Jeff's family and friends alike. He was a part of my family at one time when we married and remained so even after the divorce. He was always a great guy and always had a smile on his face. He was loved so much by anyone that knew him and will be missed by all. He still remains a part of the family by heart. Rest in peace. Until we meet again my friend......Kathy Hilton Hendricks

Jeff was one of the first people we met after moving back to Oxford. Such a warm and friendly person. A "teddy bear" of a guy. He will be missed. Much sympathy to his mom and family.

Jeff was such a genuine good person and a great friend. He never met a stranger and would do anything for you. He will be truly missed! We know, come November, he will be sitting on that tailgate with his Daddy in Heaven listening to those blueticks and hanging out with his Uncle Nelson. Rest in Peace, Jeff!

Prayers for Jeff and his family...Every single time I would see Jeff he would always have a smile on his face. Seeing him would brighten my day because he would always say something nice to me and ask me how me and my family were doing. Saw him numerous times at Country Store and would meet him on Hwy 96...we would always throw our hands up with a smile. RIP Jeff...I will miss you!
