Jeff was a custodian for the University of Virginia Academics for over twenty years and loved the people that he met throughout that chapter of his life. Prior to working with the University of Virginia, he would take care of his mother, Josephine, during her battle with cancer. Jeff had an enormous amount of love for his friends and family. He would make monthly calls to make sure everyone was doing okay and wanted to help anyone in need, and he made sure to see you laugh by singing, dancing, making jokes, and giving compliments. He loved animals and even had a rabbit and a frog outside his residence that he would feed and take care of. A memorial to celebrate Jeff’s life will be held at a later date.
