    I’m happy I got to spend a couple summers working with Jeff and Jon at the Camp Harkness beach. Jeff was such a sweet guy and was great to work with , he was like a little bro to me for those summers. I remember how all us lifeguards would goof around when the beach was quiet. And Jeff was always one of the most talented when it came to fixing or building something in a pinch. He will always be remembered .. Emily and Jon I’m so sorry for your loss, thinking of you both, as well as the entire family and Brody ..

    I’m so sorry for the loss to the Champlain family. Jeff you were one that would always make me laugh and was always the protective “big brother” for me. I know we lost touch for quiet a few years but I stayed in tough with Jon and always asked about you. When I heard you were gone I was shocked. I hope you know how much I loved you and was grateful for your friendship. RIP Jeff ❤️❤️
