Jeff was passionate about many things in his life, cars, music, video games, wrestling, jewelry, and memorabilia are just a few; but his greatest passion from a young age was sports. From playing and watching, to later visiting as many stadiums and arenas as he could, sports have always been a huge focal point in Jeff’s life. In more recent years while traveling for work with his father, they enjoyed stopping at different venues to watch baseball, football, hockey, basketball or whatever team was in town that particular week.
A celebration of Jeff’s life will be held on Saturday, June 26, 2021 at 1:30 p.m. at Thomas McAfee Funeral Homes, Southeast.
Memorials may be made to FAVOR Greenville or to the Greenville Humane Society.
