Jeffrey's obituary

Jeff was a well-beloved husband, father, brother, son, and physician. He passed peacefully in Mercy Hospital of Folsom where he previously served as Chief of Staff while maintaining his own private medical practice for more than 25 years. 

Jeff grew up in Studio City, CA and spent most of his young life in southern California before completing his medical education at Strich School of Medicine at Loyola University Chicago. He then returned to California to complete his training at the UC Davis Medical Center where he met and fell in love with his future wife, Cari. Their bond was unbreakable; they were a team in every sense of the word. After completing his residency, he and Cari settled in El Dorado Hills and were blessed with two sons, around whom their lives revolved. Jeff spent time in school classrooms, went on class trips,  and watched his boys skateboard and play soccer.  Temple Kol Shalom was a big part of their lives and Jeff spent many years coordinating and teaching Sunday school. Jeff and Cari survived the angst of their teenagers before sending them off to college. They treasured all the time they had as empty nesters by enjoying time with friends and family, going on date nights, and taking time to travel. Together, Jeff and Cari were not only partners but teammates in life.

He is survived by Cari and his two sons, Aaron and Noah. They want to thank their friends and family for the support and love they have received. You all mean so much to us.
