I knew Jeff when he lived on Brandywine Street. He was the salt of the earth and a fine human being. Our world is a little dimmer without him. So sorry for your loss. May his memory be for a blessing.

Jeff was a strong, smiling presence in high school- Cathedral ‘72. It is no surprise that he went on to have such a profound and transformational impact on housing in Philadelphia- a tremendous legacy. Rest in peace. Matt Finnegan Cathedral ‘72

For many years Jeff is someone that I've spoken with about things that I'm struggling with and excited about. I'm so lucky that he's been my friend. The poem below by Marge Piercy reminds me of him:
“To Be of Use”
The people I love the best
Jump into work head first
Without dallying in the shallows
And swim off with sure strokes almost out of sight.
They seem to become natives of that element,
The black sleek heads of seals
Bouncing like half-submerged balls.
I love people who harness themselves, an ox to a heavy cart,
Who pull like water buffalo, with massive patience,
Who strain in the mud and the muck to move things forward,
Who do what has to be done, again and again.
I want to be with people who submerge
In the task, who go into the fields to harvest
And work in a row and pass the bags along,
Who stand in the line and haul in their places,
Who are not parlor generals and field deserters
But move in a common rhythm
When the food must come in or the fire be put out.
The work of the world is common as mud.
Botched, it smears the hands, crumbles to dust.
But the thing worth doing well done
Has a shape that satisfies, clean and evident.
Greek amphoras for wine or oil,
Hopi vases that held corn, are put in museums
But you know they were made to be used.
The pitcher cries for water to carry
And a person for work that is real.
