Jeff loved the outdoors and its many activities including hiking, hunting, fishing, baseball, horseshoes, and sitting around the camp fire with family and friends. Jeff was a faithful Red Sox and Patriots fan. He had many friends in the Bangor Winterport area while growing up and in Lakeville during his adult life.
He is survived by his parents Paul and Evelyn Shields; siblings Linda White, Shirley Sawyer, Albert Sawyer IV, and Mark Sawyer and his wife Chris; many beloved aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews, and cousins and his faithful canine companion Beretta.
He was predeceased by his father, grandparents, several aunts, uncles, and cousins and several pets including dogs Carl and Drew and cat Mimi.
The family wishes to thank Dr. Cruz and all the caring and dedicated staff of Cancer Care of Maine and Beacon Hospice for the wonderful and compassionate care given and especially Gail McCarthy, who has gone way beyond the call of duty to give him the best care possible and become a dedicated friend to Jeff and the family.
There will be no formal services at this time.
