Jeff died Oct. 6, 2014, in Troy, Mich., after several years of fighting multiple myeloma.

Born in Minneapolis, Jeff attended Roger Ludlowe High School in Fairfield, Conn. At Princeton, Jeff majored in history, joined Charter Club, and was active in the Air Force ROTC, serving as cadet commander.

Following graduation, Jeff attended law school at the University of Michigan, where he met and married his wife, Wendy. After passing the Michigan bar exam, Jeff began active duty in the Air Force, serving first in St. Louis and then in Suffolk, England, for three years. Jeff continued in the Reserve and retired as a colonel.

Upon his return stateside, Jeff began his career as a general corporate and health-care attorney, subsequently joining Giarmarco, Mullins & Horton, a Troy, Mich., firm with more than 60 attorneys. He eventually became president and enhanced his already glowing reputation as a health-care/corporate lawyer. Jeff wrote three novels under the pen name Jeffrey Baldwin and was an avid racquetball and tennis player and golfer.

Jeff is survived by Wendy; their children, Catherine, Joseph IV, and Eric; and nine grandchildren; to all of whom the class offers deepest sympathy.
