Jeffry "Jeff" Wayne Ovington Jr 40, of Panama City, FL stepped into eternity, May 7,2024.

Jeff was born at a Naval station in Great Lakes, Il, on June 26, 1983, to Jeffry Ovington Sr and the late Connie Sue Beck. He was a hardworking, fun-loving, and caring son, brother, father, and friend. He loved his children dearly. He loved to fish and cook in his free time, often referring to himself as "Chef Jeff." He was spontaneous and loved adventures. He owned a home improvement business in 2012 and specialized in HVAC work over the years. There wasn't much that he couldn't do. He was always willing to jump in and help with any task or help someone in need. He was loved by many and will be deeply missed.

Jeff was preceded in death by his son Gage Ovington, brother Charles "Chuck" Beck, mother, Connie Beck, grandparents John and Betty Beck, grandfather William "Bill" Ovington and Grandmother Peggy Sorenson; niece, Myleigh Ovington.
