I’d like to extend my deepest sympathy to the Boyer family. I first met Jeff when his family moved to Beaverdale & riding the school bus. The last time I saw Jeff was when he & his wife Julie attended our 25th high school class reunion. There’s a photo of him on our class FB page under the 25th reunion album. Rest easy Jeff.
I was so proud to call Jeff my friend we had many conversations and drank a few together I will always cherish the times he came down to fish and the times we spent around the fire cooking, miss you mister Jeff until we meet agaun
Sending much love to my Boyer Family.
Please accept our deepest condolences Ruth Ann and your entire beloved family.
Sending hugs and our prayers.
