Jeffrey Daveau Larson

July 17, 1954 ~ February 17, 2018
Jeffrey Daveau Larson passed away on February 17, 2018 in Fargo of natural causes.
He was born in Fargo on July, 17, 1954 to Stan Larson and Joan (Daveau) Larson. He grew up in Fargo, graduated from South High and attended UND. He was currently employed by Bethany. Jeff had his life struggles, but worked very hard to overcome them. He became a local folk hero and went by the nick name of “vegan Jeff”. He had many friends among the musicians, recovery groups and was a member of the FM Vegan group. He was a very strong advocate of animal rights and protested any exploitation of animals. He was a very kind and gentle soul that gave and helped many people going through recovery. He will be dearly missed.
Jeff is survived by his sister, Jamie (Larson) Phillips, Pelican Lake, MN. He was preceded in death by his parents and grandparents, AJ and Marion Daveau and Earl and Viva Larson.
There will be a Celebration of Life held at 6:00 PM Wednesday, February, 28th at the Red Raven 916 Main Ave. Fargo. A vegan meal will be provided by Fargo Moorhead vegans and friends, please join us to share memories of Jeff’s amazing life.

I am so sorry to hear of Jeff passing. He was an amazing man with am amazing story. I will never forget what he freely gave to me in my program of recovery. Rest in peace my friend.
Jeff was a great soul and will be missed.
Rest easy, my friend. Your infectious smile, hugs and delicious food that you always brought to our FMVeg potlucks will be missed.
I met Jeff when I was a freshman at South, he was a junior (pretty sure he skipped a grade).
I was lucky enough to get to fill in for his regular varsity debate partner for the “Little National’s” tournament in St. Paul. I learned a lot from Jeff on that trip much of which i still carry with me each day.
Jeff is my family I still am not sure how I’m going to go on without him jane
So very sorry to hear of Jeff’s passing. I am so glad that I was able to spend some time with him in Seattle in 2010. He had come to my dad’s funeral in Seattle. My brother Steve and I were able to get reacquainted with him.
My thoughts go out to you Jamie. Love, your cousin. Kathryn
