Jeff spent his last years working on the technical aspects of communications wireless network systems, and was licensed and certified by National Association as well as the Society of Broadcast Engineers to name a few. Jeff was an avid gun and knife collector and an outdoor enthusiast; he was an accomplished survivalist and believed in the “Be prepared” creed he learned as a Boy Scout.
