Jeffery Scott Ford, 63, of St. Joseph, passed away Wednesday, Oct. 5, 2022, at his home. He was born Dec. 12, 1958, in St. Joseph, son of the late Bonnie and Claude Ford. He graduated from Benton High School class of 1977 and married Dorothy Boller on April 22, 1978. Jeff and Dorothy were blessed with 44 wonderful years together.

Jeff enjoyed working, taking care of the house and yard, and spending time with Dorothy and the girls. He was a Baptist.
