Jeffery "Jeffy" Durant's Obituary
Jeffery “Jeffy” Scott Durant, age 29, of Clay Township, passed away suddenly on August 16, 2020. He was born October 18, 1990 in East China Twp.

Jeffery worked for Kaltz Excavating as a directional drill laborer and was a member of the Operating Engineers #324. He was an avid outdoorsman who had a passion for duck, goose, and pheasant hunting, fishing, camping and watching NASCAR. The time he spent with family and friends is what he cherished most. His family will fondly remember his big personality that would light up a room and how he could strike up a friendship with strangers he just met.
