Jeff (John) and I were best of friends since 7th grade. He was loyal, funny and will be very sadly missed. We spent many good times together and even went to college together (Ken Frost, Dave O'connor and John Hilgert too). After that we remained as close as we could despite his moving to Florida about 30 years ago. Dave Strieff and I would go down to Fort Lauderdale and visit him, or Jeff would come up here from time to time. We always stayed in contact via phone or internet. He was a good soul, lots of laughs and a trusted friend all those years. I miss you buddy! Biemo
