He was an incredible talent, and never denied me a Hoagy Carmichael song...I'll be missing him for a long time.

What a lovely person he was, you will be missed sorely. We used to see him at the Black Swan, before he opened his own bar and we used to go down to his bar at Queen and Bathurst whenever we could.

I remember the first time I met Jeff at a field party outside of Toronto. We had a blast. He had gone to school with my boyfriend at the time. He was an amazing man with an amazing voice. He will be deeply missed. Angel Eyes was my most favorite song. May he rest in Peace. My heart felt sympathies to his wife Cristie and their children Rachel and Derek.

I saw Jeff for the 1st time over at Lu Lu's in Kitchener about 10 years ago and he just blew me away! Since then I have been fortunate enough to catch his talent 7 or 8 more times and he just kept getting better and better.
He will be missed and remembered fondly as one of the great bluesmen.
He is now jamming with all his buddies that have gone before.

Jeff,
I remember the day when we went to the Strings Party @ Mrs. Millers @ the Palace Pier I the cellist, Jeff LeBar the double base player. @ that moment I knew that you were destined for greatness. I followed your career from the sidelines. I am truly sorry your journey didn't last longer, however we must be thankfull for the time you spent sharing your talent with all of who are richer for it. My heart goes out to your family and all others who knew you. You will never be forgotten and your music willl live on in the hearts of all of us. Good Night Jeff rest in peace with your music @ your side.

Jeef played new years eve 2006-07 in London at countdown london. It was the wettest most miserable weather you could imagine. He played for over 3 hours and didn't say a word. He just kept playing song after song and until the countdown didn't even take a break. It is a true sign of an artists character when you see the fans meant that much to him and the band as a whole. He was the one artist I really dreamt of watching perform live so he fullfilled a dream for me and my kids. my heart and condolences go out to his family friends/bandmates. He will be missed by not only his fans but anyone who ever picked up a guitar and dream of being a famous musician. Thanks Jeff and God speed!
