Obituary of Jeffery A Fox

Jeffrey Fox, 44, of Niles, passed away on Thursday, September 16, 2010 at Memorial Hospital. Jeffrey was the son of Julius and Marjorie (Mann) Papczynski in Berrien Springs on September 28, 1965. After graduating from Brandywine High School he enlisted in the United States Army where he served his country proudly. He married Ann (Pacheco) on September 19, 1986 at a ceremony in Marlboro, Alabama. Jeffrey spent much of his time on the road. When he wasn't driving a semi truck he loved to be out on his motorcycle or out on the water fishing. Of all that Jeffery enjoyed, family was most important to him and he loved being a grandpa. He was a kindhearted man who was always caring and generous with all that he had. He had a great sense of humor and loved to be surrounded by his family and friends while he fired up the grill and made some of the best BBQ you've ever tasted. Surviving Jeffrey is his wife, Ann, his two daughters, Renee Becwar of Buchanan, and Heather Fox of Dowagiac and his parents, Julius and Marjorie Papczynski of Niles.
