From the moment I heard about Jeff's condition I knew that I wanted to do something to help. Saying that I was sorry to hear the news, or that I hoped he got better fast just didn't feel "right".
He is a friend, a battle buddy, a mentor. I remember when we were training in Virginia that he was the one who helped me on the pop-up range (if you don't know what that is, it's where you are supposed to shoot all the green men that pop up at you randomly). His calm demeanor helped me laugh through it and quickly shake off the jitters. He's a real friend that will help you anytime you need it. No matter how hot it got in the desert, Jeff would always have a smile and a wave for you.
He's a Husband, a father, and a great Petty Officer.
Today I knew what I wanted to do, and with his permission, I am able to not only share his story, but hopefully help out in a big way. With all of YOUR support, we can make a difference for him and his family.
More to come in the next few days, so check back soon on how you can help!

Battle Buddies unite. Ashley let me know what I can do. Already talked to Jenny and she is distributing the website link as am I. Jeff you are on of the greats. We will all do anything we can to help and just let us know. Hang in there. You would be there for us so now we will be there for you.
ReplyDeleteBranden- The best thing to do is get as many people you know to visit the site and follow us. I am in contact with Jeff's wife and will be posting regular updates, and pictures as I receive them. Other than that, just keep Jeff and his family in your thoughts and prayers! :)

ReplyDeleteAshley thanks for getting the word out and let me know how I can help. I was really sad to hear the news about Jeff, so unbelievable. I have called others to let them know as well.

ReplyDeleteAshley, great job setting up the website. I know Jeff and his family really appreciate all of us helping out. I spoke to Jeff a few days ago and his prognosis is really good according to his doctors. And Jeff, whatever you need pal, just give me a call, we are here for you. BTW, I will mow your grass but cooking for you is out of the question, I have to draw the line somewhere, lol.......... Seriousley, let me know if you need anything at all.....Steve.
