He loved working on countless projects in his garage and sitting in the sun on sunny days. On July 20th, 1974 he married his beloved wife, Louise, and this year they would have celebrated 47 years. After working in the plastic molding industry for so long, he decided to open his own business called "Polar Plastic Inc.". With the success of the company he was able to fulfill his long time dream of racing with his crew, son, Jeffrey and lifelong best friend, Jan Stein. Because of this, he was able to race at his favorite track, Watkins Glen. He bought his first Harley Davidson in 1996, at the age of 52, and later turned it into a trike. Jeff loved riding with friends, being part of charity rides including the Patriot Guard, and going on vacations with his son, Jeffrey. His last project was building a V8 Trike with his helping friend and neighbor, Bill Wallace. Jeff was a loving (great)Grandfather who spent warm days taking is great-grandchildren on rides on his scooter and putting a smile on all the neighbors' faces. He always made sure his house and heart were open to anyone in need.
