Jeffery loved country music and he often could be heard plucking the strings of his guitar along to his favorite tunes. He loved sports and was indeed competitive when engaging in his online fantasy leagues of any kind, but mostly baseball and football. He also enjoyed the same two sports when battling online video gamers. Spending time on the water, and along the shore of Lake Erie were favorite pastimes. He enjoyed coasting in his boat or casting a line to catch whatever might be biting that day.
Jeff often stated that his daughters were his most prized possession. He treasured the time he spent with them and loved them beyond measure. For the past few years, Jeff, had been employed as a car salesperson at Matick Chevrolet in Redford. He relished in this role and was most proud of his ability to help put a smile on other’s faces.
