All, Several had wondered, Jeff's birthday was this past weekend I believe, he turned 75. He left in Will that he wanted to be cremated, without a formal ceremony(sounds like Jeff...). I think his family is planning to have a Memorial for his birding friends, but it won't be in the immediate future. These are all the details we know right now. Any details will be posted as we learn. Thanks for all who have shared the beautiful sentiments, stories and memories of Jeff. I'll always wonder in the future when I see a Golden Plover or Baird's Sandpiper being extra cooperative, maybe it's Jeff traveling with his beloved windbirds from the High Arctic to Patagonia, since you know he would have to stop on his old stomping grounds!
