Deb, Roger, Judy and family - we grieve with you and trust that, in time, the pain will be replaced with the smiles & laughter of memories. From early high school until the words between us in his final days, the memories are just too many to list here; but, I know that Jeff indelibly marked my life. We shared many times of extreme importance, and laughed through the many times that mattered little. I will miss Jeff terribly; but I am comforted knowing that it really won't be too long before we're laughing together again.

Dear Browning Family,
I was deeply saddened to hear of Jeff's illness and passing. We had so many good times as teenagers playing football and cards together. I can remember playing cards at Jeff's house and his mom, Judy, would sit in and play with us. And "Grandma Deanie" was always there also. Living in the south now for the last 21 years, I hadn't seen Jeff in quite a while. But, about 8 years ago, I was in Columbus for an event. I told some other classmates that I wanted to go see Jeff. We went to the restaurant he was at that evening and he was singing also. We showed up and surprised the heck out of him. He was a great man, a great friend, and I'll miss him. Our thoughts and prayers are will your family as you go throught this difficult time.

Dear Browning Family,
I was so sorry to hear of Jeff's illness and the toll it had taken on him. I am deeply saddened to hear of his passing, too young. I remember first meeting Jeff and the couple of times I was able to sit with him at Fitz's. I never laughed so hard. Great sense of humor and quick wit! He'll be missed. My thoughts and prayers are with each of you during this difficult time.

When I heard about Jeff, the immediate image in my mind was of his warm and gentle smile...it was ALWAYS there. We'll see it again someday, somewhere else, and may that bring some measure of comfort to all whose hearts grieve with his passing from this Earth...May God Bless Jeff's family with peace, in time...

Dear Browning Family,
For those of us blessed to have grown up with Jeff, know that he was
quite a treasure. From his talents in the choir room, to his ability to show his Cardinal Pride on the football field or just the joy in being someone's friend, Jeff left a lasting impression on many. This Sunday is the 2006 Cardinal Football Banquet. A moment of silence will be held in Jeff's name. Know that I will do my very best to get that #74 jersey for you to have in Jeff's memory. God bless.

Dear Browning Family,
The loss of a husband, son, brother, nephew is almost too much to bear, especially one who was loved as much as Jeff. He is certainly remembered fondly in the Cassidy family. Our prayers are with you in this time of sadness.
Love,

Debra,Judy,Roger,Jason,Robin and family;
I am deeply sorry for your loss. I have such fond memories of Jeff and our high school days and beyond. Jeff was a wonderful person and friend, a true gentleman. Judy and Roger, you should be so proud of the job you did raising him. Now that I am a mother a can appreciate how difficult it is to raise good human beings, and you did a great job with Jeff. I have no doubt he was a wonderful husband and father as well.
May God Bless you all and help you through this difficult time.
All my love,

Debra, Roger, Judy, Jason, Robin and the entire Browning family; our deepest thoughts are with you at this difficult time. I found myself thinking of the passion and joy Jeff brought to all of our lives. Of the countless hours spent in your kitchen, the nights at the BFI, how overjoyed I was that Jeff came home to Ohio State, our fraternity days, and for every other time he was there for us with a smile and a laugh. I will always remember Dusty. God bless you all, Phil and Marcia Hugus
