Jeff, a big, big brother.  Electronics whiz.  Drag racing his '40 Ford with a big block V-8. Taking up parachuting as a sport when it was just war surplus chutes and jumping out of planes in Elmore County.  Jeff was extreme before Xtreme...joined the Army, went Airborne, became a Green Beret.  Master's in engineering.  Quiet...especialy about Vietnam. Miss you, Jeff!
