Jeffrey (Jeff) Rand Tingey

Centerville – Our dad, brother, uncle, cousin and friend passed away on June 7, 2017 at the age of 65.  Jeff was born May 13, 1952 to Ralph J. and Marth R. Tingey.  He spent his youth growing up in Centerville working on his father’s farm where he was taught a strong work ethic.  Jeff graduated from Viewmont High School and obtained his BA Degree at LDS Business College.  He worked throughout his life as an accountant. Jeff married Donita Banks on September 25, 1977 in the Salt Lake Temple.  They were later divorced.

Having a gift in music, Jeff was constantly asked to play in his LDS ward on the piano or organ.  He played by ear and could really make music come to life. His tastes in music were varied; however, his singing voice left a lot to be desired.  Jeff endured a lot of teasing in this regard. 

Many evenings were spent at Jeff and Donita’s home having homemade caramel corn and playing games, especially Monopoly.  Jeff was quite a cook and he put together many delicious meals that everyone enjoyed.

Jeff is survived by his four children: Ryan (Emily), Leslie (Greg Cardall), Matt, Blake (Rachel), his six wonderful grandchildren with one on the way and siblings: Ken (Colleen), Barb, Brad, and Ted (Michelle).  He was preceded in death by his father Ralph and his mother, Martha.

The family would like to thank Russon Brothers Mortuary of Bountiful for going the extra mile in every way.  A graveside service was held on June 13th at the Bountiful City Cemetery.

Jeff, you were loved and will be dearly missed.
