Jeff is best known for his “play-by-play” on the
radio for all the Lincoln Railer’s Boys’ Basketball games for the
past 16 years.
Jeff and his family have been a part of Relay for Life of Logan
County for more than a decade on “The Purpose Driven People” team,
led by Debbie Cooley. Like so many, his family and friends too have
been touched by this dreaded disease which gives him this passion to
be a part. Along with his ‘experiences’ he will also be able to
share some Logan County Relay history as we celebrate this – our
20th year of Relay For Life – and for survivors – “another birthday”
in Logan County.
Relay begins on Saturday, June 17th with Registration at 2:00.
Survivors will be given Survivor Pins. Shirts will be given at the
survivor dinner on Wednesday, June 14th)

survivors and others. Luminaria will remain on sale for $10
available at any time from Bill Post by calling 732-7564, or will
