On Tuesday, August 5th 2025, or dear friend Jeff Ciolk passed away unexpectedly, leaving behind a heartbroken family and a community who loved him deeply. Jeff was known by so many and for so many things. A few things that come to mind are his bright smile, his infectious laughter, his kind sweet heart, a generosity that knew no bounds, the way he loved on all of us so easily, and let's not forget his love of Cher. His sudden passing has left an emotional void that words can't describe.

Along with the grief, his husband John, and their family are now having to deal withthe overwhelming expenses that go along with such a sudden passing. During this time, we want to lift some of that financial burden so his family can focus on honoring Jeff's life and supporting one another through this loss.

Any donation, no matter the amount, will help ease this hardship and show John and their family just how much Jeff meant to us. If you're unable to give financially, your prayers, kind words, and sharing of this fundraiser are equally appreciated.

Let's come together to honor Jeff's memory, support his loved ones, and remind them they are NOT alone in this journey.

Thank you for your compassion and generosity,

Bina and The Flat River Family
