RAMSEY - David Jeffrey died May 28, after a drawn out fight against pancreatic cancer.

David earned respect from many, and while not a close friend to him I thought highly of his character and effort on council. Sometimes I differed in opinion with David, and often I thought he was seeing things largely as I did.

ABC Newspapers reports, this link. I join others in feeling sympathy with his family.

From Eric Hagen's reporting:

Visitation will be 4-7 p.m. Sunday, June 1 at the Thurston-DeShaw Funeral Home, 13817 Jay St. NW, in Andover. The funeral is 10 a.m. Monday, June 2 at St. Stephen’s Catholic Church, 525 Jackson St. NE, in Anoka with a reception to follow.
