Posted

Jeffrey Scott Gannon passed away at his home in Dallas on Tuesday, Oct. 8, 2019 at age 40.

Jeff is survived by his mother, Carolyn Harris; father, David Gannon; sister, Kim Gannon; stepmother, Pat Gannon; and the love of his life, Bear Gannon, a 9-year-old golden retriever.

Jeff was born in Lewisville on Feb. 15, 1979. He graduated from Mineola High School in 1997 and earned three undergraduate degrees from Southern Methodist University in math, statistics and political science, Class of 2001. He was owner and CEO of Enertia, LLC.

Jeff had an insatiable thirst for knowledge, often tutored those without the gift of math skills, was a lover of animals, a sports enthusiast, an athlete, and demonstrated undeniable generosity with his unique ability to lift others and support those who needed him most.   

He is left behind by an abundance of friends, colleagues and Pi Kappa Alpha fraternity brothers, all of whom have countless memories of big dimple laughter and Jeff-isms.

Ashes will be scattered at his childhood residence in Mineola. In lieu of flowers, Jeff would be honored for donations to be made to any animal rescue/shelter, veterans affairs, or Second Chance Act funding on his behalf.
