Welcome

This foundation was started in 2006 by those of us who were honored to know Jeff.

Jeff embodied the characteristics that we all strive for: Honesty, Integrity, Conviction, and Diligence.

Jeff passed away in September 2005 at the age of 35 from Glioblastoma Multiform, leaving his wife Stephanie and two young sons (Asher 2 mo and Skylar 23 mo at the time) behind. We started this foundation to not only remember Jeff for his greatness, but also to allow Jeff's generosity of spirit to continue to work through us.

Our current initiatives are to promote academic excellence through scholarships and to further cancer research through direct funding of critical research projects.
