Jeff is my brother and was an arrogant pain in my backside. He was smart, quick, loud and highly opinionated. He was a graceful dancer in his teens and 20’s and he knew his stuff where it came to nursing and medicine. We may not have connected in the last years but I miss him nonetheless.

Jeff was a kind, caring, funny, talented man. I was glad that he was a part of my life, & I miss knowing that he somewhere laughing, telling tales, singing, & generally enjoying life. He was a staunch friend to so many people in all walks of life – if you were a good person, he was there for you. He had faults, like we all do, but they seem inconsequential compared to the gifts that he shared with us all so generously. There are so many memories, I can’t put them all down. I hope that he is at peace.

Wow! It’s late October (30th), and it is purely circumstantial that I am just learning of Jeff’s passing. It’s unbelievable, as I hold so many fond memories of my friend. From 1998-2005, we spent much time together, as he walked with me through some difficult times. And I am better for it. Jeff was smart, and had a giving heart: we’ve exchanged many meaningful gifts. He was a good, talented nurse. And a gifted craftsman. During our time of sharing, he had one dog only – whom he loved so much. He held great compassion for disabled people, and it showed. Jeff was a fun, loving, faithful and caring friend, whom I will never-ever forget. I miss him so much. My heart is heavy and broken, having unexpectedly stumbled upon this sad news today. Heartfelt condolences to the Alden family.
