CC: learned about this from Lee Ellis...

"I found out last week that Jeff had gone into hospice. Today his daughter Julie texted me to tell me that he has passed away. Julie asked me if I would speak at his funeral in TX and I said yes.


 

She said they think his funeral will be a week from this Saturday (24 January) in the Dallas - Argyle TX area. She is checking to see if the church will be available for that date.


 

And then in a couple of months he will be buried in Arlington."
