Jeff was a free spirit who spent time in many states including his home of Syracuse, NY, ultimately discovering a life that he loved in Vail. While there he spent time riding his E-bike, mountain bike, snowboard, and was always open to an adventure. Jeff is remembered as a laughing, loving, generous and compassionate soul by everyone whose life he touched. He made everyone around him feel like the most important person to him, because they truly were.
