Jeff was a graduate of University of Michigan (1995) and received his Master's from DePaul University (2001). His passion was his family. His weekends consisted of being on the baseball fields supporting Noah and soccer fields for Addie. He also loved being on the lake, having bonfires and drinking whiskey with his friends.
