On the evening of February 14th, 2026, my best friend Nichole’s world was turned upside down when she suddenly lost her husband, Jeff - love of her life and dedicated father of their beautiful children. This unexpected loss has completely shattered their family, leaving them heartbroken and facing a future they never imagined having to navigate without him.

Jeff was an extraordinary human being, husband, father and a devoted son of God. He was an incredible friend to all, and I am blessed to consider him, Nichole and the kids family.

He loved his family so fiercely and wholeheartedly and was so strong in his faith. There was never a doubt that his greatest joy in life was being present for them. Everything Jeff did, he did with passion, dedication, and his whole heart. He gave 110% in every role he stepped into, and those who knew him felt the depth of his kindness, loyalty, and love.

As Nichole and their children begin the unimaginable journey of grieving and rebuilding their lives, they are surrounded by love and support - but the reality of the financial burdens ahead cannot be ignored. This fund has been created to help ease that weight so Nichole can focus on caring for her children and honoring Jeff’s memory without the added stress of immediate financial strain.

Any contribution, share, or prayer means more than words can express. Anything raised will assist in any needed funeral arrangements, and any incurred financial burdens the family may face as their lives start to adjust. Thank you for helping support this beautiful family during the most difficult time of their lives.

I do ask that we respect the family’s privacy at this time as they process this unimaginable loss.
