Im was very saddened to hear of the loss of a wonderful human being.Although I have to say It had been some time since i had the opportunity to have a heart to heart with what I concered to be a honest down to earth life living brother. Our last heavy conversation was some years ago. He had moved out of his house and his marriage.. he worked for years to try to restablish himself as the Great Happy Man everyone grew to love. He was helped greatly by his Brothers they loved him accepted him and never judged him…I can say that did bring back the happy go lucky dude we loved having around.D Day you will be missed. I must add I feel sorry for this Mother whom I knew he loved dearly a sister he mentioned someimtes in conversation his children and a certain someone from many years ago I never had the opportunity to meet. Hopefully his friends and family will read this and Smile knowing that we as his Brothers know exactly who and what made his life. Ride On Brother…. RIP D-DAY
We are still in shock! We will always remember that big beautiful smile and giving heart that he blessed us with. Our families have known each other for over twenty years so will miss him dearly and our hearts and prayers go out to his children who he loved so much. We loved Jeff and our love also extends to Midge and Kathy! We Love and Miss You, Jeff!
I thought of you today..But that Is nothing new..I thought about you yesterday ..And days before that too..I think of you in silence..I often speak your name..All I have are memories..And your picture In a frame..Your memory Is a keepsake with which I will never part..God has you In his keeping I have you in my Heart.
Dear Beloved Son, Not a day goes by that I don’t miss your face the sound of your booming voice or your wonderful bear hugs.

Dear beloved Son
I can’t believe that it will be your 50th birthday on the 12th. It will be the first birthday I will not be able to hold you and kiss your beautiful face. On this day in 1961 I was waiting for you to make your much anticapated
arrival. My heart has a hole that will never be filled until we meet again. Know that you live in my heart everyday. Until we meet again may the lord hold you in the palm of his hand Love Mom xoxo
Dear beloved Son
Dear Son, It will be your 50th birthday in 6 days and the first one in a half a century that I will not be able to hold you or kiss your beautiful face. This time in 1961 I was awaiting your much awaited arrival. There is a hole in my heart and soul that will only be filled when we meet again on the other side. Until then may God hold you in the palm of his hand.
Ilove you and miss you beyond words I love forever and always. Mom xoxo

Kathy, Jeffrey, Heather, or Chelsea,
This is Mark McMurtrey. I lived down the street from you all in Gloucester in the Stonehenge neighborhood. My deepest condolences. I am so sorry. Most of you may not remember me but I used to baby sit for your mom and dad sometimes. Chelsea, you were just a baby. Jeff, I taught you your abcs. We use to play Legend of Zelda together.
You all may not know but your dad had a huge impact/influence on me. Because of him I fell in love with Dodge, Mopar and of course Challengers. I just bought a new challenger today and I thought about you all so I looked you all up. I am deeply saddened about what I learned. I am so sorry. Not only did your father pass on his love for Challengers but because of his service to our county as a Sailor I joined the Marines. I cant express my sorrow enough. I am a little choked up.I looked up to him very much. Please feel free to contact me.
Mark McMurtrey
