I am deeply saddened to hear of Jeff's passing. He was not only a good friend and an invaluable help and inspiration to owners and operators of steam cars, but even to "aspiring steam car designers and builders" such as myself. Not to mention a great guy. Jeff helped arrange my life-changing and unforgettable 2005 "steam car tour" of the UK, was a splendid and delighful co-host during my stay in his guest room at Marston Lodge, was my guide in fascinating and highly informative and inspirational tours of his extensive workshop and steam car collection, and even served as expert driver on my tremendously enjoyable first and third steam car rides. Even the briefest acquaintance with him was a most rewarding and invaluable experience. His knowledge, appreciation, and love of all things steam, automotive, and beyond, was unsurpassed. He will be greatly missed by me and everyone else in the steam car world. My sincere heartfelt condolences to Pauline, Steve, and all of his family and friends.
