Jeff has been a good friend since Jefferson Elementary through Fargo South and throughout my lifetime. He will be missed by his many friends and family.
I’ll miss you so much Jeff. I have lots of photos of us. ❤️ Paula Odegaard 💖
Rest peacefully my friend
I’ve known Jeff since we’re both Boy Scouts at St Anthony’sTroop 211. Rest in peace Jeff!
Dear Jeff,
I’ve been reflecting on our incredible adventures together, from our epic cross-country trips to the bright lights of Vegas and the majesty of the Hoover Dam. And who could forget the countless days we spent boating back home, soaking up the sun and enjoying every moment? These memories are etched in my heart, and I cherish them deeply. You’ll always hold a special place in my heart.
Love always and forever,
Liz Pilo
My condolences to the family. When losing a loved one it can be unbearable. In the Bible book of Isaiah 25:8 Jehovah God promises soon to “swallow up death forever.” He also promises to bring back those who have fallen asleep in death (Acts 24:15). In a little while longer this kind of pain will be a thing of the past (Revelations 21:4). May these scriptures bring you comfort in this difficult time (jw.org)
Jeff came to my lake house the first time really got to know him. I enjoyed his zest for life because he could always find something funny about most things. And, before leaving he insisted on sharpening all my knives!
Love ya, Marv
You will be so missed Jeff. There’s not a person on the planet who could light up a room like you. You made everybody feel special. Even when we didn’t talk for years, it felt like we’ve never been apart when we did. Rest in peace.
THANK YOU, JEFF, for making me part of the Loveland clan. I’ll always remember your laugh, especially when you were laughing at me. You did that…A LOT !!! Recalling the fish comments at Carol and Bob’s in Park Rapids and you having to excuse yourself from the table you were laughing so hard that you almost choked. Too, recalling so many memories of you and would want you to know, they all make me smile…and always will. Love you, forever, Broguy!
Spending time with Jenna and Jeff when we were children meant running, laughing, and having fun without a care in the world.
I will always remember your wonderful light Jeff. I feel blessed to have had that light in my life even if for such a short time.
Jeff you touched so many lives.
My Prayers to Jeff and his family and friends.
Happy Trails Jeff. Until we meet again.
