Jeff just celebrated 25 years with Cutco!  We love and are so thankful for Cutco!  They have been so good to us!  At a meeting they acknowledged him and wanted us to each write a note. They were put in a book along with many wonderful, kind, encouraging letters from fellow Cutco people.    Here's what we said: 


Daddy, thanks for calling me! Thanks for taking us places. Thanks for giving me a bath. Thanks for taking us hunting. Thanks for working so hard that we can buy stuff. I like Cutco that you can cut stuff up, but I can’t touch it!
Love you Daddy!

Dear Dad,
I love you so much. I like how you put Christ first. It has really encouraged me. I love to hunt with you, fish with you, go somewhere with you, talk with you, hear you preach, be around you, to bush-hog with you, hang tree stands with you, to drive you around, Dad, YOU’RE THE BEST!!!!!!
Love you!!!!!
Love, Matt

Dear Dad,
Thank you for working so hard for us (for 25 years!!), and for being the Spiritual leader in our home.
Some of my favorite things about Dad are: when he takes me hunting, when he calls me “Emmylou”
and asks how I’m doing, that he does Bible studies with us every night, and tells me he loves me. I love you Dad!!

Dad,
Thanks for being a great example of someone who works hard to provide for his family. I really appreciate all that you've done for our family, and the example that you show of integrity. I can only hope to be as good of a father as you are to all of us.
Love, Rob

Dear Dad,
Congratulations! 25 years is impressive! Thanks for being a great Dad. Thanks for taking me to the orchestra concert when I was younger, and for going with me to the fiddle concert last winter! Thanks for trying to teach me how to swing a baseball bat. ;) You've been an incredible husband and father. Thank you for giving Elijah and I an example of a family that follows after God. I love you!

To the love of my life;
Of the 30 years I’ve known you, Cutco has been a part of our lives for 25 of those years. It seems like a branch of our family tree. I deeply admire your genuine love for the product, the company and those you work with. I, personally, have been abundantly blessed by Cutco time and time again! From a paycheck that meets our families' needs and wants, to an awesome product that is put to great use on our counter several times a day. From a group of amazing people who seem more like family than friends, to special holiday gifts, dinners and trips. I am in constant awe by such generosity and ever so grateful!
I remember how excited you were when you first got the job to sell Cutco! The practice presentations on me and my roommates. The cutting and polishing. More cutting and polishing. The moves throughout the Midwest, raising babies and reps. What an incredible privilege to see you grow into a man, a business man, husband and father. I’m so proud of you! It's been a joyous, most thrilling run so far!
Thank you for being you! Thank you for being passionate, fun, purposeful, loyal, intentional and driven. Thank you for your integrity and character! Thank you for calling home every night you're away to tell me you love me! I so appreciate all that you do for all of us! I have more love and respect for you in my heart than should ever be allowed!
Forever yours,
Karen (a bit older than Jeff) Psalm 62:12 And that to you, O Lord, belongs steadfast love. For you will render to a man according to his work. 1 Corinthians 3:13 Every man's work will become manifest, for the day will disclose it, because it will be revealed by fire, and the fire will test what sort of work each one has done. Col. 3:23 Whatever you do, do heartily, as for the Lord and not for men.
