On a volunteer trip to JAARS I was totally entertained by Jeff and Larry Thompson. Their light hearted bantering made me laugh for the whole trip. He was always happy and very kind.

Jeff was surely an angel on earth-one of the kindest, friendliest, and most caring people at church. Take comfort in knowing that now you have a special guardian angel to watch over you.
