Dear Family and Friends of Jeff Kester,

It is with deepest sadness that we let you know that Jeff passed away yesterday, October 23rd. He was out on his bike, doing what he loved, when he collapsed and could not be resuscitated.

Services will be held tomorrow, Friday, October 25th at 2:00 pm CT at the San Marcos City Cemetery (1001 Ranch Road 12 in San Marcos) in the gazebo with a celebration of his life and light to follow, location TBD.

In lieu of flowers, we’d like to offer a few different ways to remember Jeff:

Donations to Support Rhea: Rhea will be facing not only emotional but also financial strain after Jeff’s passing. Please consider donating and/or sharing the GoFundMe set up to support her. (https://gofund.me/95199e7f)

Stories: Please comment below with your favorite Jeff memory. He was such a pillar in so many people’s lives we know Rhea and the family would love to hear just a sample.

Youth: Spend time with youth in your community. Beyond being a Baha’i, Jeff invested his time and effort into building the youth in his sphere of influence into kinder, gentler, more educated citizens of the world.

Get Outdoors: Go on a hike or go camping. Jeff took his kids, grandkids, great grandkids, and neighborhood kids Rockin’ and Rollin’ in all parts of Texas, enjoying nature.

With Great Love,
Rhea, Gabriel, Nurani, and Craig
