Jeffrey W. Haley
August 10, 1962 - January 9, 2021
Jeffrey W. Haley passed away on January 9, 2021. Born August 10, 1962 to Phyllis and Herman E. Haley, Jr. of Stanleytown, Virginia. Jeff attended Bassett High School and graduated in 1980. He was an outstanding athlete, playing baseball, basketball, and football. He earned a golf scholarship at Virginia Tech, where he competed for four years. He graduated with his Bachelor of Science in Agronomy in 1985. He then took on the role of Superintendent at Eagle Trace Golf Course in Coral Springs, Florida. In 1989 he joined The PGA Tour Agronomy Department which, at the time was comprised of a few of the best agronomists. There he had the opportunity to travel around North America getting golf courses competition ready. He often said “If you love what you do it’s not really work” and he spent 35 years doing what he loved. Jeff enjoyed his family and fishing. He loved taking his family for rides in his boat on the St. Johns River in Jacksonville, Florida. Jeff was extremely generous with his time and love for his family and friends. Jeff is survived by his parents; wife, Lisa; daughter, Marena; son, Jason and daughter-in-law, Crystal Collins; grandchildren, Lexie, Alyssa, Alera; mother-in-law, Rosie Dolinski; brother, Rob and his wife Marty, and their children, Trent and Meredith Haley; and many loving aunts, uncles, and cousins. Due to COVID-19, a memorial service will be held later this year celebrating Jeff’s life. Wright Funeral Service & Crematory is serving the family.
