"I never met Jeff in person but we played a mobile game together for a few years. Game of Thrones Conquest. I always knew him by his online name theBradley. Over time I got to know Jeff and I am a better person for it. He was one that always made everyone around him laugh and he always stuck up for what is right. He was very proud to have served his country but most of all he was very proud of his family. You can see the love he had for his kids in every picture he shared. My condolences for your loss. If there is a heaven he is definitely in it. Probably up there right now making Jesus and all of the Angels laugh. "
