Jeff passed peacefully from an ongoing illness. His wife was by his side.

64 years old…born 1/22/1960 in Augusta, GA. where he grew up. He graduated from Augusta Area Technical School in 1984.

Jeff made friends easily and loved living in Bluffton. He moved to Bluffton in 2001. He worked in the Maintenance Field in a Supervisory position for many years at assorted Apartment complexes in Augusta. After moving to Bluffton, he worked at the Hilton Head Mall and later at the Sunspire Rehab. When he semi-retired he worked part-time at Enmarket and Panera Bread.

He met his wife in 2004 and married in 2005 at the Methodist Church in Bluffton. They enjoyed life in Bluffton for 18 years.

Some of his favorite things to do was camping with his wife and friends at a variety of campgrounds, socializing with friends at Katies and dancing. Sometimes he would take a drive to the May River for quiet time. He loved country music, especially George Strait and Don Williams.
