Jeffrey J. Hughes

Jeffrey J. Hughes, age 54, passed away Sunday, November 19, 2023, surrounded by his loving family at North Memorial Hospital in Robbinsdale. Jeff was born April 30, 1969 to Duane and Mary (Hubler) Hughes. He graduated from Cooper High School in 1988. Jeff worked much of his career with Market Tire in Crystal and later TGK in Crystal. He was a hardworking, dedicated employee. In the hospital he talked about getting better so he could go back to work. Early Sunday mornings during golf season were spent with his lifelong friend, Pete. Jeff said the golf course was his church and told Pete, “We have the whole course to ourselves to just enjoy the outdoors.” Pete and Jeff also watched Vikings games together and wore purple proudly. Jeff was on a bowling league for 30 plus years at Doyle’s and New Hope Bowl.

Jeff is survived by sons David (Jolene) Lindberg and Michael (Chelsea) Lindberg; grandchildren Hazel, Adelynn and Keith; siblings Kathy Lee, David (Nancy) Hughes, Michael (Mary) Hughes, Patty Pavlak and Dan Hughes; nieces Jessica, Kristine, Kari, Kate, Theresa and Elise; nephews Aaron and Derek; and many great nieces and nephews. Jeff had many uncles, aunts and cousins and several family traditions that were important to him. Jeff had two cats, Luna and Mia, that provided comfort after his mother passed away. Jeff’s family is deeply appreciative of the outpouring of support from coworkers and friends during the weeks he was hospitalized.

In recognition of Jeff’s love for golf, memorials preferred to Minnesota Youth on Course.
