To this day I think of Jeff every time I get into my car. If it wasnt for him and his 1960 something Opel, I'd never know how to drive a standard transmission. Every so often during senior year Jeff, Mark Frankel and I would cut school (shhhh...don't tell anyone!) and drive out to South Park in Jeff's Opel. It was a 3 speed on the column. Having never driven a standard, Jeff in his sharing ways would say ...."it's time to learn." And did I ever. With me behind the wheel, we bounced, jerked and bucked all over South Park. I can never forget the voluminous laughter we shared during the process. I mean pee-in-the-pants kind of laughter. He was that kind of a giving guy. I have been driving a stick shift ever since.
Jeff stood out as being a truly "nice" person--a title not everyone in high school gets or deserves. He was so balanced--never seemed stressed, never too hurried for a chat, and genuinely careing. I hope his life after high school was happy. He surely deserved it.
Having just found this site, seeing those we lost in our class has been so sad. But Jeffrey was so friendly and nice. I knew him at Penn State, too. Always a lovely guy.

Although I had essentially no contact with Jeff after HS, I will always remember him as one of the gentlest souls I have ever known
