In Loving Memory of Jeff
Jeff lived life to the fullest, embracing his motto, “Just Do It,” which he proudly displayed on the license plate of his always-impressive vehicles: J5TDO1T.
At just 49 years old, Jeff leaves behind a lifetime of memories and friendships. He loved his close-knit neighborhood in Frontier, North Dakota, where neighbors became friends and friends became family. It was there that he met the love of his life, Lisa, and her dog, Sky, who quickly became Jeff’s inseparable companion. Jeff and Sky were a familiar sight, enjoying their daily golf cart rides to the neighborhood parks.
Jeff believed in working hard and playing harder. Whether it was the excitement of Las Vegas, the laid-back charm of Key West, spending time at Brainerd International Raceway, enjoying a day on the golf course, or simply being surrounded by the people he loved, Jeff knew how to make the most of every moment.
Jeff’s life was far too short, but he lived it on his own terms, with a big heart, great friendships, and a spirit that will never be forgotten.
Just Do It — the Jeff way.

Unfortunately I didn’t see much of Jeff over the years, but I heard a lot about him. And whoever wrote his obit certainly captured his spirit and how he lived his live. I’ll always cherish the huge hug he gave me before leaving the annual Hagen gathering in August in Brainerd.
