Jeffrey Meacham Obituary

So sorry for your loss. What an amazing young person. He would have made such a big difference in this world, but I know he will make one in the next.

I am so sorry for your loss.

I was in seminar everyday with Jeff. He was one of the most amazing people I've ever met. He was so smart, caring and sweet. I was a junior last year when he was a sophomore and he used to help me with my homework almost every day. He was just an all around great guy. He is missed in our seminar. My condolences to your family.

Jeff,
I was expecting that you would become a great man someday. I was hoping and cheering you on in my head. I thought that you might make that medical pod to heal people and do surgery without major scaring. I thought that (no matter how crazy it seems) you would be able to take over Africa with the robotic army of yours that would be manufactured in Japan. I thought that you would be able to make cold-fusion. I thought a lot of things, Jeff, I hope…no…I KNOW that you believe in being a Mormon, in being LDS. I hope I can see you again someday, in one of the few kingdoms of heaven. I will still think of you as you were when I last saw you. I'm sorry I couldn't be around the last three weeks of your life, I will miss you, my BEST friend…
As for your parents, I don't know what to say. I wish I could have done something, but I wasn't there for a couple of weeks before his death. He was a great young-man, one who followed the scout law, who helped his friends, who was great in everything he did. I can't tell you what happens now, but we are all hoping and cheering for you. This is my first major loss, so I don't have much advice for you. Jeff and I were GREAT friends, and we still will be great friends, for all eternity. Jeff's looking down on us, and I hope he sees what he has caused. His patriarchal blessing said something referring to his grand-children. I will pray for Jeff, and I will pray for his family. Thanks Jeff for the great time we had together, thanks for the great conversation, thanks for everything… I just wish there was more I could have done for you. I'll miss you Jeff. We will all miss you.
Signed your friend

I was Jeffrey's kindergarten teacher and I remember him as a very sweet little guy. I am so very sorry for your loss.

I am deeply sorry for your family, and I will be praying for you.

I'm sorry for your lost, I remember always hanging out with Jeffery in elementy school we were good buddies till he went off to middle school.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to your family over the loss of Jeffrey. As one of his youth leaders for so many years, I considered Jeffrey not only a boy of great intelligence and leadership skills but one who was generally interested in how those around him were doing. Unlike, many youth who would say Hi to me at church, he actually would take the time to talk a moment with me and ask how I was doing. He was a caring individual. When I taught Priesthood lessons in the Deacons Quorum, he often asked questions. He was a deep thinker and very interested in learning. We all loved Jeffrey very much!! -the Nelson Family (Ed, Joanne & Eric).

Called home way too soon. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and all of the family. Blessings,

I am so sorry I just found this out, I would have been honored to pay my respects to your family. I always admired how Jenni helped with your pregnancy with Jeffrey, Janet, taking your blood pressure...you all are such a darling family, I will treasure my memories of holding Jeffrey (My Pancake baby) he was such a doll. Once Jeni told me a beautiful story about how Jeffrey enlightened everyone at his grandmothers funeral by saying how "cool" it was she wouldn't need her oxygen in heaven...I am thinking of all of you and am so sad with you

Dear Janet:
My heart is breaking for you. You are a big part of the wonderful memories of Colorado Springs that I have. I know your faith in our Savior will guide you through the loss of your sweet son.

We will remember Jeffrey as he was the last time we saw him at church. He had that same smile and twinkling in his eyes as in the picture of him here.
With our prayers, Ron, Kitti, Mary, Theo & Kimi Potter

I am so sorry at the loss of Jeffrey. Your family are in my prayers. He was a fine tennis player.

I am deeply sorry for your loss. I enjoyed talking to Jeffrey on bus rides home. He will be very missed.

We are so sorry. We love you and are praying for you. The beautiful sun that just came up was so reassuring to me and a reminder of Jeffrey's light and life. We remember so well our first friends in Colorado Springs. Paul and Shauna Sherwood.

Pine Creek and the world has lost a truly great soul, prayers for your friends and family. I remember talking with you in 7th and 8th grade, your determination astounded me and will never be forgotten, thanks for helping me during 8th grade getting through my brother's death.

Rest in peace jeffery

I'm a student from Pine Creek... I first met Jeffrey in 8th grade chemistry; he was the world's next Einstein! Rest in Peace, Jeffrey!

I am so sorry to hear about Jeffrey. It is always so hard to lose some one so young and brilliant! All my love to you and your family,

I am so sorry for your loss, Janet and family. God bless you all. My prayers are with you all. Carol Stockdale

We will remember Jeffery as another gamering friend. If you would like copies of pictures I took when he came to play network games with my boys I'll bring them over.
Cherish the good times.
