In true Jeff fashion, a grand celebration of Jeff’s life will be held on Friday 3rd January at The Street Church, 9 Hania Street, Mt Victoria, Wellington at 11:00am, followed by a burial at Awa Tapu Cemetery at 3:00pm and afterwards a celebratory get-together at Jeff’s family home.
Let’s honour Jeff with the most epic send off, celebrating his life the way he would have wanted, with love, laughter, and unforgettable memories. Though it will be hard to live up to someone as extraordinary as him, we will celebrate him in the biggest, most heartfelt way we can.
In Jeff’s words, “be joyful to get joyful”.
