I haven't been able to confirm this (His cell phone is shut off), but the details match. He's a really good guy and one of my favorite people here. Rest in peace brother.

I'm just sick. I have no words.
Jeff touched my heart, many times.
I just can't go here!!!
Oh my gosh.
Jeff?
But I didn't get to say all I wanted- I mean... Oh dang.
Sigh....

I sent him a note several years ago asking if I could get some hop starts since he is/was a hop mogul.

My son and I went over and got 4 variety of hops from him and I have been tinkering trying to get them to look like Jeffs fields.

Jeff invited us into his man cave. Filled with tons of model airplanes, big screen TV and lots of video games. One heck of a nice guy, he even gave my son a fishing game for the Wii.

I will miss his post :twocents: He was a very nice guy. RIP :flowered:

I remember that day, Roy. You and your son, Amp and I all got hop rhizomes from Jeff that day.

Sad news indeed. My thoughts go out to his family and friends - it always seems so much more difficult when there's still so much time left on the meter.

 

[Newbs]

That's just not supposed to happen. Blessing on him and his family. ray:ray:ray:

 

[fishbait]

Oh wow.........

Way too soon.

Jeff will be missed by more people that you could count.

RIP Brother ray:

I remember that day as well. Jeff was super nice and very helpful. Alas, the Mt. Hood didn't make it but the Cascade is still going. The fresh hop IPA will be just a little more bitter from this news.
