He was born on February 24, 1961 in Nyack, NY to Ronard and Carolyn (nee Gordon) Dumas. Jeff attended Nyack Public Schools, was a member of the Nyack High School marching band, and graduated from Nyack High School in 1979. He furthered his education at The School of Music in Syracuse, NY.
Jeff enjoyed cooking, auto mechanics, and was especially passionate about music. He was a gifted drummer who played for several churches throughout Rockland County, as well as being the drummer with many bands in Rockland County and New York City.
Jeff was employed for Coca Cola for many years and had a talent for doing a variety of odd jobs. He loved to engage in lively conversations and was quick to offer a humorous remark about almost everything. His fun-loving personality, practical jokes, and big heart endeared him to his loved ones.
