Jeffrey Allen Edens...Remembered
|
 |
|
We certainly had NO Lack of good times in athens. One of my favorite stories is we were walking in Athens on a beautiful
sunny day, we were approaching Michael Stipe's house when suddenly Mr. Stipe himself shouts a hello from his porch. Michael
must have noticed the cooler in Jeff's hand and the cold ones in each of our hands and he says "hey man can I get one of those?"
Jeff responded "no way man...I know you have a job and cash to get your own" then laughed and handed Michael Stipe a beer.
It was a great moment and Jeff smiled for weeks about it.
If you have more photos or stories please send them to me and I'll be sure that everything gets posted up. Send to ornamentk@earthlink.net!

Meet the Athens Gang! Whether you know Jeff from high-school, East/West Villas,
Subway, Talmadge Street, The Grateful Dead Connection, or just by meeting him at a party and hanging out the next day...You
know this boy could have some fun! Jeff knew and loved all of the people in photos below (he found a 2nd family
in Athens as did many of us!) Here's to Jeff "Shakin on Shakedown Street!" forever more!!!!

| I'm thinking some kind of drinking game.... |

| Looks like that's what's up here! |
After Jeff left the E. Side and the Villas and moved to Talmadge Street. It was if by accident that he and KaRon were suddenly
living RIGHT NEXT DOOR (stones throw) away from good friends Pamela Boyleston, Stephany and Heather Parker, and Alex Beldon.
All the moving had taken place over some kind of break so everyone was pleasantly surprised. Dell and T-Bone (fellow deadheads)
lived directly across the street and some band lived on the corner. Then Jennifer was one street up across from Locos, Don
was across Baxter on Pope, Rich/Johnny/Bren/Kevin were across from the tree that owned itself. We were set...everyone could
walk everywhere even to our awful jobs.
