Jeff's family is a certifed Wisconsin Pioneer Family -- descendents of pioneer settlers who lived in Wisconsin before it was a state.

His relatives live throughout Wisconsin and are proud to still call Wisconsin home. The descendants of loggers, farmers, and owners of the General Store in Kellner became nurses, ministers, teachers, farmers, veterans, computer consultants, photographers, social workers, engineers, accountants, writers, school administrators, EMTs, and many more.

A fun Wisconsin fact: Jeff's grandfather is in the Packer Hall of Fame. "Pa" was a plumber in Green Bay when the 1950 stock sale was completed. His $25 stock certificate was on display to commemorate this moment in Packer history. Pa's season tickets are still enjoyed by the family.
