Jeffery Lee Theis, passed away unexpectedly on March 30, 2021. He was born March 10, 1959, in Laramie, Wyoming. Jeff enjoyed the great outdoors and especially fishing. When not out catching fish Jeff could be found cheering on the Wyoming Cowboys and Cowgirls or his beloved Las Vegas Raiders. Along with these hobbies Jeff also enjoyed tending to his many plants.
While Jeff was known for his love of these things, it is his big heart that he will be remembered for the most. Jeff always had a kind word to share and a smile to give.

I wanted to post this and say how much Jeff will be missed by me . We worked together for several years when I was at Alsco . He was a like a father figure to me always a kind word to say and he could always make you laugh. Jeff loved to eat at the hospital when he would make his deliveries and to talk and flirt with the nurses lol . He was honest and blunt and he enjoyed his Colorado trips and young’s cafe in Fort Collins. Every winter he’d tell me how he couldn’t wait for the warm weather so he could go fishing . I will never forget when he’d tell me to bring the kids by his moms house for Halloween or how when his mom died he cried when he told me or when he’d come in to work on Friday and ask me to help him print his pay stubs or check his hours for him . He was a good friend and I will miss you Jeff I hope you get to fish ? up in heaven to your hearts content because you surely deserve it ?
I taught Jeff math many years ago and got reacquainted with him when he would come down to the Laramie Soup Kitchen for lunch. I always enjoy talking with him and he had a smile for everyone. Rest In Peace. Jeff will be missed
So sad to see this. I knew Jeff when I worked at IMH and he was at Alsco. I’d say “Hi Jeff!” And he’d say “Hi Beth!” We’d always discuss our lotto luck and big life plans if one of us won. Rest In Peace Jeff. Pleasure knowing you.
