Jeffrey “Jeff” L. Corlett, 58, of McGregor, Iowa, passed away suddenly on August 8, 2021.
Jeff was born in McGregor on May 31, 1963, and graduated from Mar-Mac High School. He held various jobs working tirelessly – most recently as an electrician with UFP Industries in Prairie du Chien, Wisconsin for seven years. He had the kindest heart and greatly enjoyed helping friends and family, and spending time with his beloved dogs – Gunner and Floyd. He was well known by all as an extraordinary handyman, and simply loved to generously help anyone – would do so anytime, anywhere – and without accepting any form of compensation other than a “thank you”.
At Jeff’s request, no funeral services will be held. The family will be preparing a “celebration of life” in honor of Jeff to be held at a later date. In lieu of flowers, the family would greatly appreciate donations be made in Jeff’s memory to:
