Throughout his life he was a pastor at several different churches loving and caring for the children, youth and adults who attended. After he set down roots in West Carrollton, he received a job at MetLife as an insurance agent. While working at MetLife he was also offered a position as the senior pastor of Plattsburg United Church of Christ (UCC) preaching the word of God.

He accomplished a great deal of things throughout his life. At MetLife he was promoted all the way to trainer and taught his first full class. Bought his first house and raised three children. Jeffrey really enjoyed sports, primarily baseball and his favorite movie was "Field of Dreams". He was also a huge Disney fan, and his favorite character was Mickey Mouse. Jeffrey was a big dreamer and believed anything was possible especially for his kids. Now he is in Heaven in the presence of God, reunited with his dad playing a game of catch.
