    Judy, Jane and Shane,

    We were very sorry to hear about Jeffy. Rob worked for Jeff in the 80’s.
    He had a great sense of humor!
    We’ve been thinking about you all and pray for your comfort.
    Wouldn’t it be nice if the world could just stop for a while?

    Please accept our sympathies.
    Rob and Robin Bell

    Jeff and I were childhood friends and grew up three blocks from each other. We were good friends through high school and although we lost contact after high school I would try and see Jeff when I would return to Lawrence to visit my Mother. Jeff,I will miss you. My heartfelt condolences to the family.
