by Jeff Goodrich Obituary, Death – Jeff finished both his undergraduate and graduate work at the University of Wisconsin in Madison, where he was awarded a Bachelor of Arts in Business Administration degree. Jeff also earned his undergraduate degree. After that, he served his country with great joy while in the United States Army Special Forces unit. There, he was promoted to the rank of E-4 officer and took a great deal of pride in the fact that he was able to achieve that goal.
On July 25, 1997, he tied the knot with Kimberly, and all throughout their marriage, he had an incredible ability for patience and dedication to his wife or husband. Together, the two of them did everything in their power to provide their children, Taylor and Brandon, with the best possible upbringing that they were capable of providing at the time. After working for Menards for more than thirty years, Jeff rose through the ranks of the firm to finally become the general manager of the Menards location in Crystal Lake. During those years, Jeff worked his way up through a variety of positions within the company.
People started to take notice of him there due to the visionary leadership he displayed, the strategic team-building he directed, and the tireless work ethic he displayed. It was not too long before he died away that he became the proud grandfather of his first granddaughter. His dedicated and loving family was his first and most important passion. His devotion to his family was his first and top priority in life. His love and commitment to his family were constant characteristics of his character.
