Rest in peace, Jeff. I've only re-entered the VP sphere for about a year but his impact can be seen from even the "far orbiter's view."

 

Well done to you and hope your family finds peace.

I am not a programmer or graphic artist, so I never worked with him.
I did however, thanked him via a message for all his wonderful tables.
It only took a minute to write, but it shows that it never hurts to take a moment to thank someone...
  because you just never know.

Prayers to his family and friends during their loss.

This is really bad, tragic news ... It was a creator of fantastic boards! Although I didn't know him, but we exchanged a few letters in the past... My condolences to his family! On behalf of the VP community, thank you for everything!

Super sad news. Jeff was such a gentleman. Brilliant builder with a heart of gold. 
 

Just noticed the VP flag at half mast. Very sweet gesture, Noah. Literally brought a tear to my eye

Sad. So sad.

 

This year in September he released "Big Chief" with the rotating wheel i did for him. Before that, he was very helpful by sending me a playfield mesh for my "Bally Hoo" mod.

 

The last time we communicated in the forum was in October, when i told him how impressed i was with his Hayburners/Jalopy backglasses.

 

I'll miss his Avatar showing up in the forum, which was like "Here comes another great game!"

 

My condolences to his family. I will miss Jeff.

Very sad news. His EM tables were some of the first VP tables I ever played. I can't imagine the VP community without the contributions he made. Condolences to his family.

I am very sorry about it! 

I said him that his nick name should be WINNERMAN, and no Loserman, because of his terrible good work...

RIP Loserman! My condolences to his family and friends!

Thank  you for your fabulous EM pinball tables!
