I don't frequent these foums much anymore but I had some news I felt needed to be delivered.
The Inventor community lost a great resource and advocate.. Dennis Jeffrey passed away this last weekend. I had the pleasure of meeting Dennis several times and spoke with him on the phone on numerous occasions. He was a great guy and will be missed.

Thanks for letting the rest of the community know. Dennis was a true asset to the Autodesk community and he will surely be missed. Rest in peace my friend.
Rest In Peace Dennis,
A very sad loss for your family and all those whos lives have been touched and influenced with your passion for helping others. A real hole will be left in the Inventor community.

RIP Dennis.
I've only been around on these forums for a few years, but plenty long enough to know what a legend Dennis is. Although I have had many a heated debate with him, I always respected his wealth of knowledge and willingness to help, even those who may have given him a bit of lip on the forums every now and then. The sign of a truly genuine man!
He has definitely left his mark on this discussion group, thankfully his pearls of wisdom will be forever searchable on these boards for as long as they remain.
Condolences to the Jeffery family, all the best.

I am saddened to hear of this loss. I feel very fortunate to have met and worked with Dennis. He was a great asset to the Inventor community. Just recently I started to work on a small project for him and really looked forward to finishing it...RIP Dennis. You will be missed by all who knew you.
Respectfully, Paul D. Doubet
My condolences and deepest sympathies to you and your family, Josh. It is a big loss for all of us.

Every day I search this forum I find Dennis' name. For many years to come I'm sure I will continue to benefit from his sharing his knowledge.
Dennis' legacy lives on every time we help someone else solve a problem through these forums, email or a phone call.
I've never met or talked to Dennis in person, but i've read many of his numerous posts on this newsgroup.
He was a great help and will be missed.

How Sad, I have had quite a few posts on this forum answered by Dennis.
Dennis was a repected man in this forum.
Our thoughts are with his family and friends, I am sure he will be sadly missed.
Kindest regards Adrian
A true inventor expert has gone. There are few who have helped more on this forum.
Condolences to his family.

I just want to echo what everybody else has said. I have posted on here for a few years now and logged on to see what was going on and saw this thread. In almost every thread I read or started Dennis would be there to offer advice and information. Without people like him helping others this place would not be the community it is and a great resource for many learning CAD.
RIP
I'm absolutely shocked!
I just talked with him a few days ago and had no idea. He was his normal chatty self.
Best wishes to his famil.
My sincerest condolences to you and your family, Josh.
He was a distinguished selfless man.
We will miss him.
Rest in peace Dennis.

Extremely sorry to hear this. I knew Dennis only through this forum and the wealth of knowledge he shared here. Learning all that he knew is an admirable feat, but his dedication to sharing what he knew and helping others made him an admirable man (among, I'm certain, many other non-Inventor related traits).
RIP Dennis, my thoughts go out to his family and all those affected by this loss.
Very sad news. What he has given to these forums must be incalcuable. Autodesk themselves, as much as anyone llse, must owe him a big debt of thanks.
Though I never considered him a friend, he was a huge contributor to the Autodesk community, and I give condolences to his family and keep them in my prayers. He will be missed by me and many others here.
