  15. I have only known Jeff for about 7 or 8 years but during my time calling on him in the Gun shop I enjoyed our conversations greatly. I quickly learned that Jeff treated everyone with respect and gave everyone a fair go. It was obvious he was a man of great integrity who had the respect of everyone who new him. I would like to extend my deepest condolences to the Holt family.

  16. Dear Gail and family

    The time I spent with Jeff and yourselves was special for me as I learnt so much about how important family is
    Jeff was unique in ways not too many people maybe didn’t always appreciate-however!
    The unspoken good deeds will be remembered by those who count
    A very special person that the Colac community will cherish and remember fondly
    One could say Jeff was a very straight shooter!
    My thoughts and prayers are with you all
    Fond regards
