Thank you to all that attended Jeff’s funeral and reception. Tony Palmieri did a wonderful eulogy for Jeff and he cared for Jeff every Wednesday through the last couple months so I could keep working. I appreciated that so much, I will never forget Tony’s kindness for doing that. And thank you to Charlie Anderson for pulling other high school friends together that came to visit Jeff before he passed. We appreciated all the things posted and cards sent as well. Jeff was a proud THS Badger!
