From a young age, Jeff shared his love of the Pittsburgh Steelers with his beloved maternal grandfather, whom was born in Pittsburgh, and he was a faithful fan.  Jeff loved watching the Kentucky Derby and betting on the horseraces.  Jeff enjoyed being together with family and friends at events and picnics in the park.

    Racine lost a good dude! Back in softball days I’ll never forget the day he got to pitch
    against Swingers. His trick pitches were hilarious. My condolences to his family!
