Jeffrey Dow Bingham's Obituary
Jeffrey Dow Bingham, age 68. He had late-stage COPD and lung cancer. He passed away at home with his son and granddaughter holding his hands. He was surrounded by those who loved him most in his final days. He took his final breath on June 15th, 2024
He was born on December 25th, 1955. This makes sense because he was a present to everyone who knew him. He was a very family-oriented person who loved spending time with them. He ingrained in all of his children and grandchildren to always show love and affection to those they care about.
He had his first child Kari in February of 1977. He married his wonderful wife Bridget on July 8th, 1977. He welcomed his second daughter Michelle in January 1980. He welcomed his third child and only son Jeffrey in December 1985.
As a young man, he was a wild and crazy person who sometimes would run into problems with the law. Through all the trials and tribulations in his life, one thing always remained the love his small family shared. Jeff would reach out to all of his kids and grandkids regularly, he was the glue that held his family together.
His favorite things to do were go camping and go to the lake.
He enjoyed having a beer with his friends and watching football. He was a huge Broncos fan and would go to their games with his friends when he lived in Denver In the 1980s. He was a handyman who felt like he could fix almost anything. He did not have much but would give you his spare tire literally. He was busy his whole life and was almost always outside with a permanent tan.
He was always the funniest person in the room yet not always the most appropriate. He tried to bring light and humor to every situation. His light and humor will be missed dearly.
Jeff is survived by his wife Bridget. His children Michelle, Jeffrey and his Grandson Eliseo whom he raised . His grandchildren Paradise, Crystal, Grayson, Tina, Jonathan. Jose, Destiny, Rene, Hope, and Mariana. Great grandchildren Paislee, Melinda, Xadrian, Kariana, and Yvette.
