Obituary

Jeffrey, 49 passed away after a brief illness on November 12, 2014 with family by his side.

He was born in Malden, Mass. (he jokingly thought he was adopted because he was the only child not born in Melrose). He grew up and went to school in Wakefield, Mass and moved to New Hampshire.

Jeff was a generous fun loving guy who enjoyed fishing, animals, music, playing cards and board games with family and friends. He would do just about anything to make someone laugh. Jeff had so many antics, one favorite that comes to mind is a line from the movie Mrs. Doubtfire "Work with me!". He always had us in stitches.

He loved cars, especially his beloved Z28, Red and Black, chain link steering wheel with T-Tops. That was the love in his life until he met Joanne (Mary) and had a beautiful daughter Jessica. She was everything to him. Then he had his twin boys John and Joshua, he loved his family so much. He loved taking his family driving on long rides (ask Jess, Alan, the boys & Staci about the long rides & they will have plenty of stories) along with camping in New Hampshire. The Kancamagus Highway was his favorite. Then he had a granddaughter, Skylee, the apple of his eye as they say. He would even jump through the sprinkler with her. Can you picture him? He would do anything for her.

He was lovingly known by family and friends as Music Man and also Mr.Extreme (which was tattooed in Chinese on the back of his neck). He was known to his New Hampshire friends as "Big Jeff". He would do anything for his family and friends. He always said, "Happy today, Sad tomorrow" and that was how he lived his life.

Immediate family gathered on November 15th, 2014 at Kowloon's for a Memorial Dinner to celebrate Jeff's life.

We all will miss him deeply and will remember him forever.
