Jeffrey Keith Warfield, 64, of O’Fallon, IL, born October 4, 1953 in Granite City, IL, passed away at home with his family by his side on Saturday, February 10, 2018.

Jeff was a man of many passions and a true family man. Known as the “Fishin’ Musician,” Jeff wowed family, friends, band mates, and audiences across the Metro East with his unbreakable rhythm and love for music. With a sense of humor and wit like Jeff’s, he radiated positivity through even the toughest of times. He was joking until the very end. Though an avid fisherman, Jeff could be referred to as a lazy hunter. He dabbled in photography and retired as a production manager for Labor Tribune with additional work for The Outdoor Guide. Jeff was also a member of the O’Fallon Sportsman’s Club. Jeff will be remembered his many years of love and wisdom.

He was preceded in death by his mother, Jo Gayle Belt (nee Tayloe);
