Thinking of you with love and prayers.
So sorry for your lossClaudia. Thoughts and prayers
Claudia prayers of peace and comfort for y p u and the family. it been years since I've seen you both. He was a wonderful and kind.
Sadness is the first things that comes to my mind when I heard the news... Thankfulness followed for the knowing of this wonderful family and the leadership Jeff gave to his home, wife, and boys. As time has passed and our frequent gatherings dwindled as the children grew up and went their separate ways, the place in my heart never changed. I love you guys, it blesses me to see Thomas and Blaine when those opportunities arise and I love seeing them grow into their own little families. Such a blessing we have in our children and I know that Jeff will be missed by many folks, especially you all. As you move on this journey of life without him physically beside you, know he is still there and watching over you.. God will send his angels to hold your brokenness until it gets stronger and is able to go on, only to function, never to forget...He will give you peace and comfort. I love you all very much!!!
Jeff was a great guy and a wonderful teacher. He will be missed, but his impact will live on in many of us. He cared deeply for kids and adults alike. Prayers for the peace that only the Lord provides.
We are sad to learn of Jeff's passing. We will always remember his good-natured sense of humor and his desire to help those in his community. We pray for peace and understanding in this sorrowful time.
I'm saddened hearing of his passing. I pray for peace that passes all understanding! His legacy of kindness and witty humor lives in his boys. I pray your family feels the love being lifted and all the smiles Jeff left with so many people. Love you and the boys Mrs. Claudia!
Claudia, Thomas, and Blaine--you know I loved this man, and he loved you all so much. My life has been ever so blessed because of the Covingtons. I wish you peace and love, now and forever.
I will always remember Jeff for his candid sense of humor, and I enjoyed working with him in both the play, The Great Christmas Pageant, and at North Stanly. I know he loved his family very much, and we often talked about our children. I pray that the Lord provide you comfort and strength at this difficult time. (Psalm 91.)
