Jeffrey C. Spear, 63, of Oostburg, went to be with his Lord and Savior on Friday, April 17, 2020. He was born to the late Charles and Marjorie (Gall) Spear on May 22, 1956. Jeff was a humble, loving, tender hearted man, who ministered to many. He was a guitarist and song writer who played at church and many area Christian coffee houses.

Jeff’s favorite scripture in the Bible was Philippians 4: 8-9.
Jeff is survived by Jill Lemkuil; two daughters, Andrea (Garrett) Rawson and Jordan (Drew) Bingner; stepchildren, Adriana (Mike) Hilbelink, Jessica (Donny) Clements, Zachariah (Kristin) Vanderpool and Danielle (Callie) Vanderpool; grandchildren, Madeline Rawson and Wyatt Bingner; step grandchildren, Abigail, TJ, Angel and Natelie Hilbelink, Katarina, Donny Jr., William, Tabitha and Samuel Clements and Aubrey, Wade and Simon Vanderpool; brother, Larry Spear; stepparents, Jim and Joyce Lemkuil; step brother-in-law, Jack (Mary Lou) Lemkuil and other family and friends.

My loving condolences to Jeff's family and friends. I graduated Port High with Jeff in 1974. I did not know Jeff well but I knew the entire class had a special fondness for Jeff. A very special memory of Jeff occurred during our graduation ceremony.
The class was called to the stage alphabetically so I went just before Jeff. For me and most students, the amount of applause was minimal. I hardly got off stage when Jeff's name was called. The class erupted with "Spear.....Spear.. . .Spear". Jeff humbly and graciously walked to the stage. A very fond memory of a good man.

Jill, it is will deep sadness that we hear of Jeff's passing. Travis Krell let us know. Jeff was one of the nicest, kindest people, and a pleasure to know him. May you rest in the knowledge that he rests in Jesus' arms, and may you rest in the peace that passes all understanding through Him. Jim & Fay Eichelberger
