Jeffery L. Atchison
1965-2018
On June 14, 2018, Jeffery Lynn Atchison, beloved husband, father, son, brother, and dear friend, passed away suddenly at the age of 52. Jeff will be forever remembered by his wife, best friend, and soul-mate, Jamie. He was a wonderful husband, father, brother-in-law, uncle, words with friends opponent, tye-dye wearer, listener, and such a kind friend to many.
Jeff was always kind, goofy, insightful, and genuine. Even after losing his eye sight due to multiple sclerosis, you would have never know if he hadn't told you. He always had some sort of project he was working on, and he was always reflecting on how to improve himself and grow as a person. Jeff could find the bright side to any situation or just make you feel better by offering a laugh and a hug. He enjoyed good music, winning strategy games, and spending quality time with the people he loved.
He is survived by his beautiful wife, Jamie Atchison, father, Tom Atchison, and his three daughters, Kalyn Atchison, Ayren Marshall, and Lauren Atchison. Also, his brother Jay Atchison and sister Jodie Tucker and their children, his nephew, Justin Tucker, and his wife, Corrie, and niece Sarah Nicole Atchison, and nephew Luke Atchison. He was preceded in death by his mom, Lois Maxine Atchison and his favorite Bleu dog. Jeff is also survived by a whole host of others who felt the impact of his love and positive life perspectives and he will be greatly missed by many.
Jeff's service and celebration of life will be held Friday, June 22nd at 2:00 pm in the Chapel of Crossing Church Oklahoma City.
