Biography

Son of Ronald & Brenda.

Jeff was killed tragically in a freak accident, when a sinkhole opened up under his bedroom. His brother Jeremy tried to save him, but was unable to locate him.

The house was immediately deemed unlivable and was demolished, as were two houses next to it. The area is now a memorial to Jeffrey. The sinkhole reopened in 2015, and again in 2023.
