There are many questions surrounding Jeffery’s death. None of which can be answered immediately.

Our goal is to raise funds to get Jeffery home to Arkansas so he may be buried next to our mother.

We always knew Jeffery was a gentle soul. He was kind and gracious even when the world around him was not. The circumstances regarding his death has come as a shock to our family. We loved Jeffery with all our hearts. The fact that he was yet another young, black man to die in police custody is heartbreaking.

Please know we do not ask for help lightly. We, his family, are doing everything we can to get Jeffery home so he may be laid to rest.

Please help bring Jeffery home.

The Pendleton Family
