Missing you Dad.   We all miss you and love you so much.   The best dad in the world.   You inspire me to be the nest I can be—- to love others, you taught me a strong work ethic.  I will make you proud.

Love,
Julie P.

Dad, 
You will always be my rock, my heart, and our families everything. I feel so lucky to be able to call you my DAD. Everyday that passes I miss you more and more. I love you Dad!!! You taught me by example and your kind heart to be a better person. I loved spending time with you, family trips, hearing you laugh and seeing you smile. I think about you all the time and I miss you so much. Thank you for being such an incredible Dad, Husband, Grandfather and Friend. You will always be my Hero!!! XOXO

Jeff was one of the greatest person's I knew The devotion and love he showed to you all was such a wonderful sight to see. he always had a smile on his face and was so supportive to his family and friends.  he will be deeply missed

 Your love of life, your family and Connie are a inspiration to all. I will miss your smiley face and kind heart. Jeff, I cannot believe you are gone.

Jeff was like a second Dad to me growing up. I spent so much time with The Papple's in my youth being best friends with Lisa. I am so grateful to have known him and to see first hand his genuine greatness! He is terribly missed and my heart is breaking for each of you...so much love to you all!!

Connie my heart goes out to you and your family. It seems so odd that I just saw the both of you for the first time in many years when you stopped by my shop a few weeks ago. I was so blessed to get to see Jeff again after such a long time.  Take one day at a time it is a long journey. You will be in my thoughts and prayers.. If you ever need to just talk I will always be here.

Love and Prayers,

Dear Connie & family.  Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.  What a great gift it was to meet you & Jeff.  We always looked forward to seeing and laughing with you.  May Jeff rest in peace.

Jeff's charisma was always special to me. He put others before himself. One day Jeff and his family allowed me to use their horses (I wanted to impress a first date and take her horseback riding.) Julie Papple took us out riding ... my date fell off her horse ... ending up with broken bones and a hospital visit. 
A year later we were married and now have two beautiful daughters.
So, without the Papples, who knows what would have happened. Many more great memories of Jeff ... and God Bless the Papple family.

Dear love, You were my first date, my first boyfriend, my first prom, my first crush, my first kiss, my first everything! You are my superman, my hero, my muscle man,my best friend,my favorite person to spoil and love, my husband and my lover. You accepted me for me, you still opened the door for me, you supported me in all my hobbies, you were my favorite person to hang out with, we still held hands and I still had a crush on you! I will love you for all eternity. I don't know how I can live without you. The best day of my life was the day I met you!! Love forever and eternally, Connie Lee Papple and proud of it!

He was the best.  I have never heard one negative thing
about him.  He taught us all what true love is by his examples.  Every one who knew Jeff is a better person.

We will remember the kind and gentle Jeff Papple. I personally was part of Connie and Jeff's wedding party. We shared our weddings and our first two children with the birthdays  I will always remember the fun we had.  Blessings and prayers. Tom and Robin Knutson and all

I met Jeff and his wife Connie, though our woman's group in Yorba Linda...  it was obvious from the beginning the love that he had for his wife and his family...  you could see the sparks fly when they were together and a rare bonding that is hard to find!!!  Jeff, rest assured that we will be there for Connie, when she needs us...  Your were truly a great husband, father and grandfather...  Diane Miller Judd

All the pictures and words have described this wonderful family man. We were neighbors for 25 yrs in Yorba Linda. You will forever be in our thoughts Papples. Terrible times,  but wonderful memories to have and share with others.   Death is always so final, but thanks to all who have posted their wonderful thoughts,  Jeff will be remembered forever. 
 Take care
