I just came across Jeff’s obit—so sorry to hear of his passing. My connection with the family goes back to many happy memories at Clear Lake, Manitoba. Spent many years sharing wonderful memories of my family with Jack, Barb, Dana, Wayne and Jeff. They were a very special family. Thoughts are with the family.

From the late 80s to the mid 90s I worked with Jeff as partners for almost five years, first downtown and then out of the Fort Garry station. What I most admired about him were his leadership skills, work ethic, sense of justice and also his sense of humor. What I appreciated the most was his friendship. To say working with Jeff had an influence on me for the rest of my career would be an understatement. My wife and I send our sincere condolences to Scarlett and the rest of Jeff's family and all who loved him. He was truly one of a kind and will be greatly missed. Rest easy Jeffrey.

Jeff was on my shift many years ago. He was a hard working individual and he frequently volunteered to help others. He was a great storyteller and I always enjoyed his great sense of humour. He treated me with the utmost respect and provided great advice to me on many topics. I will miss him. Our condolences to his family and friends.

I had the distinct honour of working in the Vice Division at the same time as Jeff. He was an upbeat, positive and hard working person. I enjoyed speaking with Jeff and learned much from him. Jeff was the definition of a team player and was intensely professional in his work. I am proud to have known him. My sincerest condolences to Jeff's family on this tragic loss.

My condolences to the family on Jeff's passing. I remember him (and the others 'kids' too as they roamed the halls of SJCI.) - Posted by: Mr. D (Teacher) on: Jul 09, 2022

Jeff was a good friend and my partner in the drug unit of the Winnipeg Police. I have a saying that I refer to often “Police brotherhood is not a right, it is an honour earned by few”...... Jeff earned that !!! He was a tenacious drug investigator and had a work ethnic second to no one. I have many fond memories with Jeff as his friend and coworker. . some can be told and some can’t. An inspector in the drug unit at the time gave us a nickname.... “Rogue crew”.... not sure what his reason was for the nickname but Jeff and I embraced it.... Thanks for all the great memories Jeff..... Rest In Peace .... - Posted by: Dave Lysyk (Friend ) on: Jul 09, 2022
