Jeffrey Kevin Brockman
April 26, 1965 – April 7, 2023

It is with great sadness and a heavy heart that we announce the passing of Jeff Brockman, age 57, in Eureka — son, brother, father, grandfather and special friend to many.

Jeff was born in Eureka at St. Joseph Hospital in 1965, to Richard and Wilma Brockman. He was welcomed into the world by his two older sisters, Wendy and Sherrie. A few years later he would welcome his little sister, Stephanie.

Jeff lived most of his life in Eureka/Fortuna area, with a few years in Florida with his father, stepmother and stepbrother.

He enjoyed baseball, fast cars and making people laugh! You could always count on him to have some off-the-wall comment and then laugh!

Jeff was a free-spirit person who took on many different jobs in his lifetime. One which he cared for and enjoyed the most was being a nanny to Amy and Lucy Rogers. He adored and loved them, as they adored and loved him.

Earlier in his life he was blessed with two of his own great sons, Jeffrey and Steven.

Jeff will be greatly missed and loved not only by his family but his extended family and friends as well.

Jeff is preceded in death by his father, Richard Brockman, grandparents, numerous aunts, uncles and cousins.

He is survived by his mother, Wilma Senteney, his sons Jeffrey Brewer Brockman and Steven Thurston, his siblings Wendy Pesce, Sherrie Hurst, Stephanie Gardner and younger brothers Brian and Jason Senteney, many special family friends, Lucy and Amy Rogers, and the Warnows whom he loved all.

Memorial will be held in Jeff’s honor on Sunday, May 21 at the Monday Club in Fortuna.

Rest easy, Jeff.
