Although I never knew Jeff before our panel had it’s first meeting, I came to respect his passion for his political beliefs. As anyone who has read this blog knows, Jeff and I had some spirited debates that were just that, debates. We spoke to the issues, each of us projecting our own beliefs. But our debates were never demeaning nor were they personal. I will miss those opportunities we would have had to debate the issues as they unfold in this presidential campaign. But this is not about politics.  It’s about Jeff’s passion for his country. His ability to clearly present his views and never wavering in his defense of them. In the short time I knew Jeff, I came to realize that this community, this state, this country needs more people like Jeff.

To Jeff’s family and friends, my condolenses.
