Dear Jeff, what a heart you had for worship! I will never forget your rendition of "Ave Maria" at Grandma's funeral. Your voice was magnificent. As I met your many friends at your wake, I realized how full your life was: polkas, dancing, festivals, good food, (and the odd White Russian?) Play on. Love, Ronni

Jeffrey, you always greeted us with a smile when we came to visit. You were an important part of your church and the music department will not be the same without you. Our kids and grandkids have loved being in the Project Club and that was all because of you. Now you play for the angels. Love, Aunt Char

Jeffrey brought joy to everyone he met. He touched many, a true angel on earth. We´ll never forget the Bubik. Look after us down here, cousin.

When I arrived at Joanie's and Jeff came in, he always greeted me with " MY GOD!mother"

and a huge bear hug. He relayed stories of carnivals, dances, dinners, friends meeting for breakfast together. He found his way around the town on public transportation, day and night. He enjoyed a few visits here in Door County, and was on a float for the 4th of July Parade, dressed as Li berace, complete with piano and candelabra! We always remember his favorite xmas song at the holidays. "O, we're on our way with a great big sleigh, full of toys, choo choo trains and candy canes , for all you girls and boys. Jingle bells o jingle bells, ring your happy tune, Flying high up in the sky, Hi there, Mr. Moon!"

Now he is there. Love ya. Godmotta Phyl

I am sure that the polka music is playing in heaven now that you have arrived! You touched many lives while you were here on earth. You will be missed by all, but we know that your music plays on it all our hearts.
