I remember seeing the first posted photo of his mother Elma framed at Jeff's place in the 90's. Prior to his passing he would talk fondly about going to his mother's place for dinner on weekends. After he passed i spoke with Elma on the phone one evening; she was wonderful to speak with. I just want to say that i am so sorry to hear of Elma's passing. I think of my old friend Jeff often. I hope Elma and Jeff are together again.

My Deepest sympathy. Elma was a ray of sunshine, greeting others with a smile and a wonderful sense of humour. She was my very special flower lady and I am going to miss her and her amazing expertise about gardening and flowers. I like to think she is in heaven arranging the most beautiful bouquet ever. My prayers are with you at this very sad time.
