Marb, can´t imagine losing someone you´ve known for what seems forever. Hope you´re maintaining. Think of you & JJ often. Eldred & I keep in contact & reminisce about our crazy fun times with you two. XO [email protected]

JJ could make me laugh until my sides ached. I was always greeted with a smile & wry quip. We went to IWU together and Marb was my best friend. Unfortunately our lives got busy and we didn´t keep in touch as much as I would have liked. I am deeply saddened by the news of him passing. I´m frustrated I can´t get ahold of Marb and if you read this Marb, please leave me your phone number on my Linked In account or email.
My heart goes out to you, Marb.
Love Jody Peterson Siegel aka Toad

I had the pleasure of working with Jeff on several projects during my 16 years with Sun Chemical. He was always at the ready to help. Absolutely loved and admired his wit and dry sense of humor. Such a brilliant mind and kind person lost far too soon. RIP.

I went to high school with Jeff. He was such a nice guy. Always friendly and kind. I’m happy to hear he had such a full life since then. Condolences to his wife and family.

I was fortunate enough to work with Jeff for the vast majority of his career with Sun. He was kind, smart, even-keeled, and so darn witty. He was the epitome of class and always the best technical mind in the room. A life far too short but well lived. Our thoughts and prayers are with you Marb.

We are so very sorry to hear about J.J. Though it’s been many years since our paths have crossed, we have such pleasant memories of our times together. May pleasant memories help you through this difficult time, Marb.

Jeff, you were one of a kind and will be missed by all of us! Thank you for all the memories that you have given our family- from the times you would take Michelle and John to Ghirardelli’s as kids and getting the big ice cream sundaes, and then having family dinners with you and Marb later on in life. We always had the best conversations when we were all together, filled with lots of laughter and smiles! You were more than just a best friend, you were family. We love you very much! Until we meet again (get those French Martini’s ready!). Love always, Ron and Cheryl Paulus, Michelle and Ryan Sabo, John and Nicole Paulus and Family.

Jeff, you will be missed! Thanks for the phone call with the job offer at Sun Chemical many years ago. Thanks for creating a great work environment to learn, thrive, and enjoy your "work family". I will always remember the heated debates on heatset formulation and strategy, your love of blueberries, the red BMW, your fun ties, the gray "power" desk at Clearing, the fun dinners with the technical teams and the suppliers, and your appreciation for all the finer things that life can offer. Wish you had a chance to enjoy more of them. Deepest condolences to Marb and the rest of your family.

Jeff was a great friend! We worked together for many years in a great team at a great company. He and his wife also build a relationship to my son and his wife. A great person! We will miss him.
We are grateful to know Jeff and Marb.

Jeff possessed probably the two most important qualities a boss can have: he trusted you, and he had your back. Rest in peace, Jeff.

I am honored to have known, and worked with Jeff for about 23 years. Jeff was truly a one of a kind individual. I never saw him get upset, or even bothered by anything. He was always in control and on an even keel. Jeff was fair, humble, smart, congenial and very grounded. Truly a great person. I am lucky to have crossed paths with him. RIP, my friend.
