Jeff was raised and attended school in Tonganoxie, Kansas. He furthered his education at the University of Kansas in the field of Computer Science. While in college, Jeff, along with close friend, Doug Spaw, recognized the network world and technology were about to explode and created a network based company. Formed in 1999, Link-Lite Technologies remains a solid foundation for professional networking and IT support among several businesses.
You could find Jeff following a NASCAR Race, attending NBA Games around the country, playing cards in Las Vegas or vacationing with family. He undoubtedly gained many friends and laughs on every adventure. Although Jeff loved to travel, his true love was his family, especially his son, nieces, and nephews - to tease, torment and love.
Jeff is survived by his son, Tyler Lewis; father, David Bunnell; mother, Roxane (Martino) McCoy; step father, Kenneth McCoy; grandfather, John Martino; sisters, Jena (McCoy) Reischman (Chris), Janacae McCoy (Chris Todd), Janelle McCoy (Grant Bergner), and Justyne (McCoy) Noble (Dustin); 12 nieces and nephews; and his beloved pups, Daisy Duke and Athena.
Jeff was preceded in death by his granddaddy, Jeff Bunnell; granny, Stella (Flynt) Bunnell; granny, Marlene (McCoy) Little; grandmother, Teresa (Guadagnano) Martino; and brother, Jonas McCoy.
