It feels surreal knowing you’re really gone. I still have those “I really need my dad” moments but then realize you aren’t here to hug anymore or talk to. You really don’t realize what you had until it’s gone. We lived in the same house yet we would never say a word, and that eats me up inside. Even when you were dying, I was too afraid to come see you until it was too late. I never got to hear you say you love me or that you’re proud of me for the last time. You always knew how to make everyone around you laugh, you were kind, you were an amazing father. I wish you could have stayed a little longer to see me graduate, to see me get married, and to see me succeed. I hope you know how much I love you. I miss you so much, and I think about you every single day.

I fondly remember Jeff from USMA days. I just saw that Penn States quarterback has the same last name which prompted a search for Jeff.
So sorry to hear this news. May he rest in peace and rise in glory. May his family and friends know peace.

Jeff was an amazing individual. I also knew Jeff from Schering Plough as a member of that illustrious and amazing Midnight Shift Crew. Jeff was an outstanding leader and an true friend. We grew together as our careers at Schering flourished and he always made time to chat and mentor those around him. Gone way to soon and will miss him dearly!!!! Nothing but fantastic Memories. My family will always have the Allar family in our thoughts and prayers during these difficult times. Cheers Buddy

I'm at a loss for words. This is such sad news. I work with Jeff at Schering for many years and he was one of my favorite people. He was a great boss and friend. Always made me laugh.
My deepest condolences. He will be missed

This breaks my heart. One of the best guys I have met and had the pleasure to work with. I am still fishing in the Stratos today and now every trip going forward on that boat will be a tribute to you my friend.

I remember the day I worked for you, and I thought you didn't like me because from the time you came in you kept your door closed. To later find out you were keeping the secret of the site closing. What a day that was. I also remember you from Packaging on the midnight shift always full of joy and happiness and telling stories of the mischief his kids got into. I have so much great memories of you Jeff!!! Your family should be so proud of you. Wish you were able to come to the last reunion we had at SP, but you were ill and couldn't attend. Little did I know how ill you were. My heart breaks. RIP Jeff !!! A true GEM. May your family find healing.

This makes me extremely sad! My deepest condolences to Laura and the entire family. I know how much he loved his family. I just spoke to him a few months back.
He was one of my first managers at Schering -Plough on the midnight shift. More importantly, he was a great friend. We made so many memories together that I will never forget. His stature and silence would intimidate some at first, but they would then easily see his caring and generosity.
He will be deeply missed. Gone to soon. May he rest in peace 🙏

I knew Jeff from back in our Shering-Plough days. I remember him as a caring, common sense leader who had a personal connection with everyone. He knew when to laugh and when to play it straight but he couldn’t always hide is excellent sense of humor. God speed my friend.

I miss you, dad. There’s so much I wish I would have said to you during our goodbye. I want to go back and do it over. But even if I could, it probably still wouldn’t feel good enough. There’s no way to craft the perfect farewell to a father. There will always be something missed, something unsaid, something you wish you would have added, something not phrased quite right. It’s a work that will always need editing and revising because one last conversation with you could never be enough. I will forever remember you smiling and waving back at me as I left that day. My heart is broken. I love you.

The long gray line of us stretches, be though at peace.

I got to know Jeff a little bit outside of work after spending time with him playing in a charity softball tournament. I attach the team photo! I agree with Tony's description ... special and unique!
Gone too soon!
My condolences to his family!

I was so sorry to hear about Jeff's passing. He was such a good strong person. As a colleague he inspired as a leader with honesty and trust. He was very special and unique. I hope that as your grief lessens, that all the great memories you have will ease your loss.
