Jeffrey Joseph Porter

Jeffrey Joseph Porter, 59, of Huson, passed away Monday, Aug. 18, 2014, as the result of an automobile accident. He was born March 21, 1955, in San Bernardino, California, the son of Yvonne "Bonnie" and Arthur "Art" Porter.

He was reared and educated in Colton, California, graduating from high school in 1973. Shortly thereafter, he entered Christian ministry, working with Victory Outreach, a church that ministered to men working through substance abuse. Jeff went on to teach Bible studies and later supervised the Victory Outreach Ranch in Victorville, California.

Recently, he enjoyed the outdoors, including shooting, fishing and hiking, particularly with his nephews. He was an accomplished cook, having worked at Kadena's and several local personal care homes.

He'll be remembered as a quiet, understanding, calm, gentle, caring man with a subtle sense of humor who loved to tease.

His family includes his parents, Art and Bonnie; two sisters, Diane (Bob) Wikum and Janet Porter; a brother, Steven (Joyce) Porter; a son, Matthew Porter; daughter, Rosie Porter; wife, Sally; stepdaughter, Mari Castro; and numerous nieces and nephews. He is preceded in death by his sister, Ellen.
