I have known Jeff since he was a wee boy when I started riding at Sandy’s farm. He was always a kind, gentle boy with a lovely smile and a ready hello. Had the pleasure of a talking with Jeff a few weeks ago while visiting Sandy at her farm. My deepest condolences to all of his family.

Deepest Sympathy – thinking of the family and friends and wishing peace and love.

Jim and I are so very sad to hear the news of Jeff’s passing! Jeff was a very kind soul and always willing the lend an hand or help whenever he could! I am sure he will be missed by many.

I am so sorry to hear this. So many memories of Jeff around the farm when I was there. He was always smiling and supportive. My thoughts and prayers are with the family.

To the entire Blackall family, I am so sorry for your loss. Jeff was such a cool and humble cat. I have many fond memories being around their property in Arva during my childhood. Loving baseball, I was always in awe of watching Jeff play; he was always tearing around the basepaths like a man with his hair on fire, bringing so much energy and intensity to the game. Those memories have stayed with me and are how I will remember him. Thinking of Diane, Trevor, Dustin, and the remainder of his family during this incredibly difficult time.

Shocked.
I knew Jeff as a good man with integrity; from Medway HS but had not seen him in many years.

Please accept my condolences. He deserved more of that good life.

Dustin and Jennifer, Jeff has been in my thoughts a great deal these past few days.

I wish you all peace and strength.

I’m so sorry about this. I started riding at Blackalls in 64. I’d be 9 & Jeff 7. He was always happy with a big smile and yes , an acomplished rider on Wee Willy. Great memories over the years hunting, pony club , then horsemanship clubs. RIP Jeff.

Dear Diane and family,
It is with our deepest condolences we reach out to you. We have fond memories of Jeff while boarding with Mrs. B and seeing Jeff daily. Jeff was kind and supported us through our earliest stages of horse care. He provided our horses with Great care and an affinity of stories. Sending you hugs.

We are saddened to hear the loss of Jeff. Also great memories of his pony days and all his fun times around the family farm many years ago. Our thoughts and prayers go out to Sandy and her famlies.

To all the family, please accept our most sincere condolences on the passing of a wonderful man who was a husband, a father, grandfather,brother and son. He will be missed.

I first met Jeff in 1979/80. I was boarding at Woodacres Farm and had a, difficult to load, big horse. I also knew nothing. We’d be ready to go to a show, and there stood my Duffy, unwilling to step up the ramp. Lovely Jeff would walk over, take the lead from my hand and walk him up. A kinder, gentler person I’ve never met. He loved deeply, his wife Di, his 2 boys, his newly arrived namesake Grandson and his Mom. I’ll miss that “light up the room ” smile.

We were sad to hear about Jeff. You are in our thoughts and prayers.

Lots of Love,
Scott & Gloria Jackson

Diane, Trevor, Dustin and families,

We are so sorry to learn of the loss of Jeff. We have many fond memories of knowing Jeff as a neighbour on Sunningdale Road as well as in Arva. Also as a teammate with the Arva Slo-Pitch teams and old-timers hockey with the SNL Smokeeaters. He could always be counted on as a calming influence with his good nature and sense of humour. A few of us just recently had some laughs about golf in Parry Sound.

But he will especially be missed as a friend by so many.

Greg and LIna

Every memory of Jeff I have is filled with love, kindness and humor. I had the privilege of knowing Jeff when we were children and into our teens. My condolences to the family….

I share in your pain and reach out at this time to all, and those I have not seen as of late, to express my sincerest condolences to you . Special hugs to Sandy, Jennifer & Rod. So many great character traits to this man, as many can attest, made him tops in my book and his stoic approach to such adversity I hope will lead others to help eradicate this disease on mankind. Thank you Dianne Trevor and Dustin for sharing with the time over the last while. Love to all and Philia and Godspeed to my brother. Ride on…

My condolences to the Blackall family in this time of sorrow. My thoughts are with you. I always enjoyed running into Jeff over the years at various times and places. We always had some lighthearted conversations about life and motorcycles.

Diane and family. We’re so sorry to hear this. You’re in our prayers and thoughts. I was glad to have met Jeff a couple of times through our work gatherings. He was a light hearted fellow.

Diane, Trevor, Dustin and families,

Our deepest condolences to you all. Jeff was such a great guy. We were so fortunate to have him in our lives. Many treasured memories and laughs. He’ll be missed dearly and thought of often.

Jeff always had a sly smile which lighten up the gathering. And it was pasted on to Dustin and will be continued with grandkids. A smile forever etched in time.

To all family and friends of Jeff…….I was deeply saddened to hear of his passing……many memories of Jeff as a young fellow and as a rider. My condolences to all

Jeff wasn’t only my neigbour but a true friend and my constant in my cottage life. Jeff was so kind, caring, soft spoken and such a kind hearted man. I will miss “Hi Karen” across the yard, when I would pull my car into my driveway. Jeff would run over to help unload my bags, groceries and asking what he could do to help out. I will miss our chats and his smile. Love to my beautiful friend, Diane. As well to their family. Hugs ❤️

Oh that infectious smile of Jeff’s……❤️.
Jeff truly is one of the kindest people I have met. He always had this knack on making everything less complicated – he kept it real, and kept it simple. I loved that about him.

Biggest hugs Diane and family.

Thinking of you Sandra at this sad time.

To the entire Blackall family, please accept my condolences. Although it has been years since our paths have crossed, the memories of my years at Woodacres remain a big part of me. Jeff in the barn, his smile and the twinkle in his eye. I am so very sorry to learn of his passing

To the Blackall family, I’m so sorry for your loss. I have so many great memories of growing up and having fun at your place in Arva. I’ll never forget the night our parents dropped us off in the woods behind the house, only to come back later and chase us through the woods. I’m sure Jeff had something to do with that.

Thinking of Dustin, Trevor and Aunty Di during this incredibly difficult time. I’ll always remember the great memories and laughter Jeff brought into our lives.

Our condolences to Jeffery’s family. He wil be very greately missed. Prayers for the family.

Miriam and Wayne Allistone, of Arva On.

My condolences to Diane and the boys. I have know Jeff since we were 5 years old, when I started riding at his Mom’s at the corner of Adelaie and the 6th concession.

Our deepest condolences to Dianne and all of Jeff’s family. Jeff and I went way back to our youth playing hockey. Later in life, I moved to Alberta and on my visits home, would unannounced on several occasions swing by for beers and Jeff would rearrange his schedule to take time out for an old friend and as years went by, my family. You will be missed my friend.

The Goulet and Blackall families go way back. Jeff and Ron were very good friends of our family and close friends of my deceased brother Ronald and my younger brother Michael. Many fond memories, particularly remembering Jeff for the way he treated me. When I was a kid, he stood out to me among my brother’s friends. He was one of a few of my brother Ronald‘s friends who noticed me, who spoke to me. Jeff was a decent man and no doubt leaves a legacy far beyond what can be told. My condolence to the entire Blackall family and especially to you Ron.

Dear Dustin, so sorry for the loss of your Dad. I saw him at Springhill Flowers the day of your wedding. He was picking up corsages and we had a nice chat.

To Diane, Jennifer, Dustin and the Blackall family,
So sad to read this news of Jeff’s passing. He had a twinkle in his eye, and you could tell he was smiling under that huge moustache. He was always friendly and kind and he will certainly be missed by all who knew him. The Woodland is a fantastic place for a celebration of his life and 70th birthday. Sending prayers of comfort and peace to his family at this enormous loss.
Sincere condolences from
Nancy Dickenson

My condolences for your loss. It is never easy, however, many memories to be cherished. There is another angel with us. Thinking of you.

The Blackall and Edwards families go back to Jim and Sandy’s wedding day and before. We spent a lot of time together growing up. The names in the condolences brought back so many childhood memories. Our deepest sympathy to the family. We are so sorry for your loss.

Such a loss, condolences to you all. May Jeff rest in peace, and dwell in your heart. Ride on.

Dear Sandy, Jennifer and Ronny and all other family Members: I was sad to hear that Jeff had passed away. Gone too soon. I fondly remember Jeff from all those Pony Club and London Hunt shows! Jeff was a calm, talented, courageous pilot aboard the strong, athletic large pony Wee Willie. They were a wonderful team. It was always thrilling to see Jeff and Wee Willie in the “jump offs” at the shows! He will be missed by everyone who knew him. I hope he has been reunited with all his loved ones on that beautiful shore. Sincerely Gina (Robson) Finch

Dear Sandy, Jen, Ron and to all of Jeff’s family,
Malcolm and I were very saddened to hear of Jeff’s passing. He was always very kind and so helpful to us, the boarders who kept our horses at the farm.

I had the fortunate opportunity of attending the 1995 Daytona bike week with Jeff. I remember he was always in a cheerful mood with a smile on his face and easy to talk with. I’m sorry he is no longer with us. Hopefully, he will be in a better place now. R.I.P. Jeff.
