He was a avid fan Michigan football. He loved hockey, his team was the Redwings and Lions football for NFL. He loved all his dogs; they were his fur babies. Jeff had a heart of gold and when he was able he would help anyone he could. His friends were like his family & he became uncle "Jeffro" to all their children. He worked for many years as a carpenter and as a manufacturing line worker. He was also a member of the Boy Scouts in his younger years.
