Jeffrey Allan Earheart Sr., born October 9, 1954, in Seattle, Washington, passed peacefully in his sleep on December 13, 2025, and went home to be with his Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Jeff was a devoted husband, father, grandfather, and great-grandfather. He is survived by his wife of 54 years, Mary Diane Earheart, with whom he built a life grounded in love—his love of Christ and his unwavering commitment to both his faith and his family.

In 1988, Jeff and Mary moved to Rockport, Washington, where they made their home and became part of the community they would remain in for decades. He was a loving father to his son, Jeffrey Allan Earheart Jr., and his two daughters, Jennifer and Jaymie. He was a proud grandfather to Daniel, Isaiah, Kaitlin, and Ryan, and a great-grandfather to Jameson Jeffrey and Payton. His family was his foundation, and his presence was steady, protective, and constant. Jeff lived a life defined by grit, loyalty, perseverance, and unmatched moral integrity. He worked hard, stood his ground, and showed his love through action. His faith guided him, his family anchored him, and his legacy of honor and principle will continue through the generations he leaves behind.

Jeff's favorite verse, 1 Samuel 3:19, reads: "The Lord was with him, and He let none of his words fall to the ground." This verse reflected the way Jeff lived his life—with integrity, intention, and faithfulness. He was a man who meant what he said, stood by his word, and lived in a way that left an impact on everyone around him. His words mattered because his life matched them.

A funeral service will be held December 30 at 2:00 p.m. at the National Veterans Cemetery, where Jeff will be honored with a 21-gun salute for his service to his country. A biker procession will escort him from Mount Vernon to Kent, Washington, honoring the life he lived and the brotherhood that stood beside him. As he is laid to rest, we take comfort in knowing that the Lord was with him—through his life, his love, and now his peace. Jeffrey Allan Earheart Sr. will live on in the hearts, actions, and memories of all who loved him, a legacy of integrity, faith, and unwavering love that will never fade
