His warm personality, coupled with his friendly nature, made him a beloved member of the Safeway family. He was always willing to lend a helping hand and brought positivity to those around him.

More than anything else, Jeff will be remembered for his kind and loving spirit. He possessed a genuine warmth that resonated with all who crossed his path. His friends were truly fortunate to have experienced his unwavering loyalty and unwavering support. Jeff had a remarkable ability to brighten the lives of others and was a beacon of positivity wherever he went.

We honor the life of Jeffrey Michael Perantie, a cherished son, brother, and friend. As we bid him farewell, let us carry his memory in our hearts, remembering the joy he brought to our lives and the lasting impact he made on those who were fortunate enough to know him.

May Jeff rest in eternal peace, forever fishing in tranquil waters, and may his spirit continue to inspire acts of kindness and love among us all.

Per Jeff's wishes there will be a small family gathering and no memorial service.
