This blog is a work in progress, and will be updated as time goes on. At the moment, pictures cannot be viewed in the photo album below (Jeff Starred photos). That album is now blank. For now, please see all pictures thru the Shutterfly link. *** [updated July 2011]

We send Jeffrey our love and smiles.

Warm thoughts and memories from Jeffrey's friends and family can be found in the comments of this post. Some of these were given at Jeffrey's eulogy. Currently, comments are from Mark Olenik, Jim & Marie Seckers, Nick Lombardo, and Kathy (& Jeff) Kamps:

Do you believe?

At the gravesite, it was a beautiful summer day in Cleveland
80 degrees with vivid blue skies and faint patches of clouds.
No rain since the morning of the day before.

After the ceremony, white doves were sent up into the sky, ...
it was then that we all noticed, incredibly, a small rainbow
within a cloud overhead.

We were all amazed, and gladdened by the sight.
Hard not to wonder..... Good tidings sent from above?

from a sympathy card

"Like a leaf dropped upon water...
the ripples of your loved one's life
spread on and on
to touch the lives of others."

Jeffrey touched many people in a quiet,
gentle way. We will never know how many,
but I know that for me and those that I saw,
they liked that soft touch of his,
because he touched you with carefulness,
humility and without pretense.

You have always been an Indians fan through thick and thin. Thick and thin and for years it has been thin.

Yet, we have had our heroes.

One of Jeffrey's absolute favorites was Herb Score, ... as sportscaster, he was the voice of the Cleveland Indians. Herb had a uniquely gravelly voice and a heart-felt delivery of the game. Jeffrey never got tired of listening to Herb, no matter how many innings the game took!

*Herb Score, LHP (1955-59) AL Rookie of the Year (16-10, 2.85 ERA) in 1955 went 20-9, 2.53 ERA in '56. Two-time All-Star fanned 547 in first 512 innings before being hit in the eye by a batted ball in '57. Retired in '62 with 55-46 mark and spent 34 years as Tribe broadcaster.

"To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate beauty, to find the best in others; to leave the world a little better; whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is the meaning of success."

-Ralph Waldo Emerson

Jeff,
It seems to me that you don't really care where you are taken on vacation as long as you have Monika at your side. That has always made it easy for us.
You enjoy the people more than the events.
Here we are at the Daniel Stowe botannical garden in Gaston Co.
I have always admired your unwavering dedication to your friends and loved ones. You are soft-spoken and many times seem pleased at the opportunity to fix a problem, like finding an electrical problem in my panel box - thanks.
