Default Jeff Jones

Jeff Jones was one of our classmates that committed suicide 19 years ago this month. He was one of those classmates that tried to get others to laugh, he was very active in soccer, actually coached a little league team, was a talented writer, and a great guy. I no longer have any yearbooks but if anyone has one could you scan a picture of Jeff and place it in here?

I really miss him and it has been a long time since he has been gone, and it was such a tragic ending for someone who had so much going for them and would have gone far.

Jeff and I were friends for most of High School, he was a hilarious guy, and very intelligent. I lost track of him after High School, and am very saddened to hear the news.

Shanna, I have my Yearbook at home, and will scan up a pic as soon as I get back to Hawaii.

I remember Jeff a little bit. I wasn't friends with him but I do remember him from classes. I remember him as a really nice person and fun to talk to.

I am so sorry to hear that he passed away. I hope that he as found peace wherever he may be now.

I also have my yearbook and scanner handy. I need to scan a few other pictures in. If someone else hasn't beaten me to it, I will scan in his picture from the yearbook.

Me, Jeff, and Larry Johnson used to ride to lunch all the time in my El Camino. One time I bet Jeff I could eat an entire Cheeseburger in one bite, I pulled it off! He "introduced" me to the Femmes on those lunch rides...can't say I was a huge fan LOL!

Jeff was a really great guy. He always made me laugh and was just plain fun to be around. I lived about three houses down from him and was shocked and devastated when he committed suicide. It really was unexpected. After the funeral I visited the grave site a few times but it was just too sad to continue to go. I still think about him alot. Especially when I go to visit my Dad's grave because he isn't buried to far away.

It breaks my heart for his Mom and brother and what they went through. Healing takes a long, long time. I will always remember the fun times that we had and the great person he was.

Great pictures! Thanks for adding them.

Tracy
