Jeffrey Blake Larson, age 60, of Papillion NE, passed away on June 1, 2024. He was born on January 16, 1964.

Jeff was preceded in death by his father, Howard Larson, brother, Barry Larson and grandparents, Gus & Nettie Larson & Frank & Mildred Berry.
Jeff was known for his kind and giving nature, his sense of humor, and his deep love for his family. He was a devoted Christian and worshipped at Community Bible Church in Omaha, NE. Jeff first acknowledged Jesus Christ as his Lord & Savior during high school and attended Indiana Wesleyan University (formally Marion College). Although he did not pursue a career in ministry his faith never wavered.
In his professional life, Jeff had a diverse career path that included being a stockbroker, engaging in ostrich farming, working in structured cabling sales, business owner of JBL Communications, Inc for 19 years, as well as owning All In Sports, LLC.
Outside of work, Jeff was a huge fan of sports. Baseball was his favorite. He loved watching his son pitch & rallying around MLB & College baseball games, supporting the Iowa Hawkeyes, and organizing Bocce Leagues in Omaha, NE. Jeff enjoyed listening to music, especially country music artists like Waylon Jennings, Willie Nelson, Johnny Cash, and Hank Williams Jr. His favorite line from Waylon was " Lord, I've seen the world with a five-piece band. Looking at the back side of me" and he would grin every time he heard it. He loved creating memories with his three brothers. A favorite song of theirs was "The Boys Are Back in Town" as a reminder of their unconditional love for each other. One of Jeff’s favorite bible verses: Proverbs 17:17 A friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for adversity.
