Jeffrey L. Kauffman

Jeffrey L. Kauffman, 61, passed away peacefully in his Temple home on Wednesday, April 24, 2019, with his loving daughters by his side, after a valiant battle with cancer. Born in West Reading, he was a son of Barbara (Feltenberger) Cauff, and the late Donald Kauffman, and stepson of William Cauff.

Jeff was a 1975 graduate of Muhlenberg High School, where he excelled in cross country and track. He still holds the school record for the mile run with a time of 4:25, and was on the 4x880 relay team, with a record time of 8:15. Jeff was an avid Philadelphia sports fan, passionately following the Eagles, Phillies and Sixers.

Family always came first to Jeff, and he truly loved his daughters….and his grand-dogs. He enjoyed traveling with his family, especially to Ocean City, MD, in the summers. He was also a great dad, extremely supportive of his "girls," and would do absolutely anything to help them.

Jeff had a great sense of humor and was hard-working, strong-willed and extremely punctual; "If you're not 10 minutes early, you're already late."

Jeff is survived by his daughters: Danielle, Shillington; and Brittany, Birdsboro; as well as his sister Sherry, Mundelein, IL, his niece and nephew, Carissa and Bradley; and his beloved grand-dogs: Mia, Cole and Finn. He was predeceased by his brother Glenn.
