Jeffery Wayne Chandler, 30, was born April 8, 1992 to Michelle Lawhon in Arcata. Jeffery lost his life to addiction way too soon on March 26, 2023.

Jeffery will always be remembered as the sweet little redhead who would always bring a gift home from school that he made for his mom. He attended East High.

Everyone who knew him knew how sweet and caring he was. He was a loving son, brother, uncle and father. He will be missed by everyone but is now longer in pain.

There has to be a life after death because he deserves a second chance at it.

Psalms 34:18:

The LORD is close to the broken-hearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit

Jeffery is survived by his mother Michelle Lawhon, siblings John Lawhon, Chrissy Lawhon, Janice Chandler, and Chad Markussen. By his grandfather Dwayne Owsley, uncle Shawn Owsley, aunt Rebecca Thurman, many nephews, nieces and cousins, and by his one and only daughter, Mollee, who no matter what always held a special place in his heart.
