Condolence From: John Borene and family
Condolence: Dear LuAnn, Sam, Kenz, Don, Sam and Jim:
I am so sorry for your loss of Jeff. He made such a great impact on everyone who ever knew or met him. He was the brightest, kindest, most giving person I have ever known. He always treated me and my family so well anytime we were together. We spent a Thanksgiving with the Masterson's years ago and he treated us like royalty, my girls still talk about it all these years later and they still refer to Jeff as Uncle Ffej!
I first met Jeff in the summer of 1974 and I can say without hesitation, he's been my best friend ever since. I was fortunate enough to grow up with Jeff in Spring Lake Park, I have such great memories of the time we spent together there. Everyone knows any time spent with Jeff, was always fun and filled with laughter.
Our family was blessed to be able to spend time with Jeff, LuAnn, Kenz, Sam, Jim and other family this last October. It so nice to see him and spend quality time with all of them. The last few times I spoke with Jeff I felt as if he was trying to protect me from what was going on with his health. Just goes to show how Jeff always put everyone else first, what a great guy.
Jeff, I love you and I will miss you so much brother. I will cherish the time I was able to spend with you, I will never forget those times.
Our prayers and thoughts are with the Masterson's during these difficult times, may God give you peace and strength.
John, Becky, Rachel, Emily and Natalie Borene

Condolence From: Candy & Joe Hudgins
Condolence: LuAnn....We have so many wonderful memories of Jeff, you, Samantha, and MacKenzie.. Jeff had a way of making you laugh and smile that was amazing to see. The loved you shared with him will live on forever! Jeff loved his girls and was a loving father to them. I believe His granddaughter was a gift from God to bring him joy during his illness. Jeff saw what a wonderful mother Samantha is to Reagan. When I look at MacKenzie I see Jeff's smile and heart. The love and care you gave Jeff during his illness was a true symbol of unconditional LOVE! Joe and I will miss Jeff. We both love you and your family. Please know that we will be there for you whenever you need us. Jeffs service to his Country and Community was greatly appreciated.

Condolence From: CAPT Adam Palmer
Condolence: I am so sorry for your loss. I worked with Jeff several years ago at CSL when he was already retired. He had this calming aura that was immediately recognizable amidst all of the hyperactivity of the operations space. I feel like we've lost one of the great ones of our business.
With deepest sympathy,
Adam
Commodore, Submarine Squadron 16
