Survivors include his mother, Jacqueline "Jacquie" Caron-Brochu and husband Paul of Maine; his father, Patrick Howes and wife Doris of Chamberlain, Florida; his daughter, Mercedes Howes of New Hampshire; his sister, Jennifer Howes of Florida.

Jeff never let his head hit the pillow at night without putting in a day of hard work.  His strong work ethic was an asset to his employer, Wheel Doctor where he worked as a tire specialist. Jeff loved riding his motorcycle, enjoying the beauty of the places he traveled to. He was quite the fisherman, taking time to relax while casting his line out for his next big catch. Jeff always had a big smile, had a positive attitude and was kind to everyone. Jeff will be deeply missed by his family and friends.

A celebration of life service will be held at a later date. Memorials may be made in Jeff's honor to the Family's Wishes and will be accepted for his family at the Irvin Macz Funeral Home in Centralia.
