R.I.P. Jeffrey Stoehr
My best friend Jeff lost his battle with cancer today. We met in our college days around 1992 and both worked in the video rental section of a local grocery store. We immediately bonded over a shared taste in music and film and went to countless movies, concerts and sporting events together. He was a really great guy and I'm still coming to grips with the fact that he's gone. May you rest in peace my friend...
"97X" WOXY was an Alternative station in Cincinnati, Ohio from 1983 until 2004. Bogart's is a music venue where Jeff and I saw a few shows including Tori Amos, the Foo Fighters and Garbage.
