We’re so sorry for your loss. Jeff spent a lot of time at our home in Hiawatha. Wherever Jeff was laughter & pranks we’re always a common occurrence. During the summer months Jeff & Beans would load up a group of kids & head to Kansas City for concerts. He was so proud to say he graduated from KU & we would all give him a hard time during football season because we were Kansas State fans. He would always say wait until basketball season & we’ll see who’s great. We were so happy when Leslie came into his life because she loved Jeff for the wonderful guy he was. He also loved being a dad. God blessed us with Jeff in our lives.

This is absolutely devastating news to hear, Jeff was a great guy - you could see how much he loved his family just through his social media posts. My thoughts and prayers go out to Leslie, Mikahl and Caran. But also to his mom and family - the loss of a child is so extremely hard, regardless of their age. I pray that Jesus lifts you up and comforts you all during this difficult time. He will be missed greatly.

Jeff was a great co-worker and friend. Always a incredible technical resource and fun to talk to because of his great sense of humor. My Deepest condolences to his family.

Doug Dailey Aug 02, 2023

Co-worker ,Lenexa ,Kansas

Jeff was someone I always looked forward to seeing at work. Always a positive person and gentle demeanor. He was a favorite by just about everyone, customers included. I saw him the last month at the office, and he shared some physical struggles, which they couldn't figure out the answer to, and was just hoping things would improve. Losing such a wonderful person like Jeff took the wind out of my sails. I used to work with Jeff all the way back to the mid-90s in support. He was a down system engineer, and I was an escalation engineer. I always knew if I had a tough question he would help as best he could or get me closer to an answer than I was. And when I was a manager in Regency Support and heard Jeff was working the case with one of my TAMs, that we had zero to worry about. He was just a wonderful person and the kind of person that could easily be a "best" friend. Missing him and praying for his family.

Thinking of Jeff as a colleague always reminds me of what a knowledgeable and yet a very pleasant person he was, the whole team loved working with him.

May his beautiful memories always give the family strength in these difficult times. Regards, Mukta

From Sportsbet Australia - One of Jeff's Customers. We’d like to pass or our most heartfelt condolences to his family, and to his HCL colleagues. We had a very close working relationship with Jeff, both on a personal and professional level. Collectively we have such admiration for him. We thoroughly enjoyed the regular collaboration with him and as such hold him in such high regard, as a great, decent, and very genuine person and a great family man. We’ve also had the pleasure of meeting members of his family a few times on our Zoom calls between the US and Australia, and had a great time laughing at some of the American and Australian cultural clichés and nuances. Our heart felt condolences he will be missed. From the team at Sportsbet
