Oh no, he has not passed. In fact, I walked out of church with him this morning. He shared with me a bit of interesting trivia. According to Mr. Jeff, the term "the whole 9 yards" comes from laying out all your bullets from your 6 machine gun belts off your wings at a single target. He ended his conversation by saying his runway is getting kind of short, but his next bird is going to be a helicopter. No runway necessary. I look forward to each chance I get to have a chat with Mr. Jeff, not matter how short or long. He is truly a gentleman.
