Jeffrey Jindra Obituary

We all miss and love you very much!!You were truly a gift to all who had known you! You gave me the greatest and most precious gift of all.. Thank you we will never forget you until we meet again my love, my best friend, my Soul Mate! Love you for now,Love you for alway's, Love you forever our Jeffrey you'll be! aka Big Daddy!!

My Jeffrey....it is now a year since you were taken from me but the ache in my heart remains the same as it was felt when the policeman gave me the news on June 12 last year.

I wish I could go over the photos placed in an album you borrowed to duplicate those early years that are still so precious. Problem is that album was never returned when your possessions were partialy returned. Of all the things that were not returned, the two albums of visual memories were the most important. I hope where ever you are, Dad, both grandmas & grandpas and Goosely keep you company and that you all are in His comfort. I will always love you, our Jazz Baby

Mom

Well, Jeff, I guess I was right. You are gone and you are unbelievably missed. I can't believe you've been gone for one whole year already. We are having a small memorial service and will release your favorite balloons up into the air....hopefully you will be able to see them. The dogs will be there, too.
We love you, we miss you and we will see you again one day.
Rest in peace, my friend. It is well deserved. You were a good and faithful servant. And I will be forever grateful for the love snd caring you bestowed upon my family.
Love Forever,
Carol

Happy Birthday Jeffrey Joseph Jindra!!!

I was very sad when I heard the news about Jeff. He was a great guy. He was a good friend. He would do anything for anyone. My sympathy to Julie and Ryan.

Jeff was an awesome dude. He was a great guy to hang with. WE had a lot of good times together that won't be forgotten. I am sorry for Julie and Ryan's loss.

I had not seen Jeff for many years but knew him as a young man. He was kind, loving, easy going and devoted to my niece Julie and her son Ryan and was an important part of their lives. He will be missed but memories of him will last forever.

We were shocked and sadden to heard the news of Jeff's passing. My deepest sympathies go to the entire family. In spite of all Jeff was and still is a friend of mine and I will miss him. So will the rest of the Moe's

My husband and I were classmates of Jeff at Coloma High school. We just heard the news of his passing. My deepest sympathies to Scott and the entire family. My your happiest memories sustain you during your sadness.

Sincerely,
Donna Collins Baes

I was very shocked today to hear from a friend of Jeff's passing. I will never forget the times that I spent with Jeff when he and his family lived on the beach in Coloma. I think I spent nearly every day with him one summer and he was truly a good friend. I will always remember his smiling face and the good times that always followed him. I hated when he left after graduation and each time I drive on the road past the beach house I have always wondered how he was. I always regretted not staying in touch. My condolences to his family, Jeff will be missed by many.

My Sympathy to all who Jeff had touched. I am so sorry for Julie and Ryan. I was at Julie's house 18 and a half years ago when Jeff proposed to Julie. He took a Fortune Cookie and had that inside a Chicago bears Cup. The Fortune Cookie had a little piece of paper sticking out of it and It read will you marry me ? Then he placed the ring on her finger and she said "Yes". Then all the camera's started flashing! They were both so happy! Her entire family loved Jeff as did her friends. Then the day Julie and I went to watch Jeff and his friends play horseshoes , Jeff sat a tape player next to Julie and told her to hit play when he went back to play horseshoes. As she did there song came on . You were always surprising Julie with something to show your love which made you all the more special to her. He loved you Julie with every ounce of his soul and I am so sorry for your loss. I was always hoping I would have met someone like Jeff,So kind so sincere and so loving,always making people laugh. Jeff was truly an Angel. Jeff I am surely you will be missed by many!! Jeff you and Julie truly had a gift you had each other. Julie please contact me. If there is anything I can do let me know. The last time I saw you and Jeff was in May you were shopping for your son's gradution gift! God Bless you and time will heal your pain. Jeff rest in peace my friend.. We will all see you again. You will be missed by all you have touched!!

My deepest sympathy to Lillian, Frank,
Kathann, Scott, Steve and Ashley in the
loss of a son, brother and father.
My fondest memory of Jeff was when he
was best man at Scott and Carol's wedding in his black tux and blond hair
and how he rushed to his nephew Jason's
side when he fainted then teased him about it all night. Jeff you will be
missed and thank you for the good memories you left in our hearts. God
be with you.

I know that Jeff's passing will not only leave a void in mine and the rest of his family's life, but also in the hearts of all that knew him. Thank you dear brother-in-law for all the good times we shared. I will miss you

I already miss you a great deal Jeff, I'll always remember all the good you did for me and all the people you came in contact with.
your brother,

My sympathy to Julie and Ryan for you both have suffered a tremendous loss. Jeff took such good care of both of you. There was nothing he wouldn't do for you both. He is lucky to have had you guys in your life. You will be missed Jeff

I wish to thank all of Jeff's siblings & friends who I know would have prefered they did not have to write about Jeff but would have looked forward to visiting him again. This special place in my heart for my son will forever be happy that he was mine and his Dad's.
God'd love and peace to your soul, our 'Jazz Baby'

My brother and my friend,

How I miss you so much.....your smile, your infectious laugh, your jokes that I heard a million times, the fun we had growing up, the places we went, the stories we shared the list and memories are so many. You placed your finger print on all you met and you will always be remembered. You will come up during converstations, thoughts through out the day, during holidays and in dreams. I wish I could tell you one more time how much you meant to me and others and how much I loved you as my brother and my friend, but I am sure you knew and with that I draw comfort. My heart is heavy with sorrow, but will grow in love as I remember you. I will now treasure the last time we saw each other for our 50th birthday surprise and the time we shared in Sedona as you seemed so calm and relaxed. You made us a beautiful stained glass Kokopelli and each time I look at it, it will remind me of you. As the sun shines though the glass, casting shadows in the room, I will think of how you shined in the hearts of all you touched. Our paths will cross again in the realm of our Heavenly Father and your soul is now at peace. I miss you...until we meet again.

I Love You,
Your only sister

We are so sad about Jeff dying. We have great fishing memories of him, especially him kissing a fish! I am so grateful that I got to spend a week in AZ with him and family. Jeff would and did anything for anyone, no questions asked. His smile and joy for life encourging all. So sorry for Lillian and Kathann's loss. Enjoy memories with love and smiles.

I have known Jeff all of my life and i am very sorry for his loss. Jeff was a great guy who was fun to be around. I will always regret not going fishing with Jeff this year. I will miss ya buddy.
Rest in peace Jeff

I have known Jeff for about 20 years. There are many things I could say about Jeff but one of his best qualities that I loved most about him was his calm, patient personality. He was a very kind and generous person. He would do anything for anybody. I was so grateful for the way he took care of Julie and Ryan. He will truly be missed in so many ways. Love you Jeff!

Ive known Jeff since i was born. He was a great guy to be around. He did everything for my aunt and cousin and i'm thankful for that. His loss was a shock to everyone and will take a lifetime to get over. I will miss him.

So sorry for Jeff's loss. We were golfing buddies and had great times together. We had our ups and downs, but always wound up back in each other's lives. His passing was too great of a shock. It's going to take a long time to get over this one.
I'm just very grateful that he loved Julie and Ryan...that's what mattered the most...to me.
So, rest in peace, dear friend...we're here to hold up your end now.

Knew Jeff for about 15 years, great guy to be around. Took care of my sister really well, He would come over her place and take care of her. He was a good friend to be around. Loved the Cubs and I would watch it with him sometimes. Will miss him

Our condolences to Lillian and all of Jeff's family. His smile, stories, and friendly personality will be missed by all who knew him. I couldn't help but smile when he was around and am so sorry for the hole his absence will make in his family's lives. I, too, hope to see him again one day.

My deepest sympathy is sent to Lillian and all of Jeffery's family.
I didn't know Jeffery personally but heard many great things about him and know he will be missed by all.
REST IN PEACE JEFFERY.

Jeff was my cousin. Although we had not seen one another in 30 years we had the wonderful opportunity to catch up this past March. I am grateful for that weekend. I will cherish his laugh and the stories he shared. I will most cherish the hike the group of us took in Red Rock. My thanks are many for that weekend.

Jeff was my brother-in-law, my brother and my friend. I will miss his warm smile, his contagious laugh and his corny sense of humor. Jeff had a way to light up the room when he entered and no one was a stranger to Jeff as he made everyone feel at ease. I will surround myself in the days to come with great memories of Jeff, especially the memories that make me laugh. I will miss him in this life, but I know that I will see him again someday.

I got to know Jeff when I became Jeff's mailman on Penn Rd.. For the past 3 1/2 years Jeff would come out to get the mail and we would chat. I really enjoy talking to people on my route. Jeff was one of those people that I looked forward to seeing. We always had something to share with each other. He often in hot weather would greet me with a cold glass of water. I was shocked when a friend of mine told me of Jeff's passing. Please know that I have nothing but good memories of Jeff. He was a very caring person. I will miss him.

Its just a few days have past since we had lunch with Jeff, his Mom, and Mana. It is hard to comprehend he is gone. We will miss him dearly.Carol and I send our heartfelt condolences to all the family.
Frank & Carolee Michalek

Be Still

Be still like the grass on a melancholy summer day
Be still like desert shrub.

Be calm and you will hear your loved one speak, in the stillness, in the calm, their love resounds.

If you are still this promise I make, you will hear the voice of your loved one helping you along your way.
