Jeffrey Brian Day
December 3, 1954 – April 20, 2025
Jeffrey Brian Day, 70, of Houston, passed away on April 20, 2025, beside his beloved wife of 40 years, Michelle DiMare Day.
Jeff was a devoted husband to Michelle and a proud father to Cathleen Day (35, Austin) and John Paul Day (34, Houston). His career in insurance spanned decades and was marked by integrity, dedication, and the lasting relationships he built along the way.
A lifelong history enthusiast, Jeff shared his passion for the past with his children. John, a tax accountant, and Cat, an attorney, were his pride and joy—he loved them deeply and never missed a chance to celebrate their accomplishments.
Jeff will be remembered for his boundless joy, his extraordinary kindness, and a laugh that could fill a room and lift spirits instantly. He had a gift for making people feel welcome, heard, and loved.
Jeff is survived by his wife and children; his sister, Cathleen Day; his brother, David Day (April); his brother-in-law, Joe DiMare (Karen); and his nieces and nephews: Hanna (John) Gates; Daniel Day-Woodruff; Samuel (Hilary) Carter; Oren Day-Smith; Anthony (Nicole) DiMare; Lee Day; C. Day; Hugh Day; and many other family members, all of whom will miss him dearly.
Jeff is preceded in death by his father and idol, Hugh Paul Day; his mother and best friend, Beatrice Anthony Day; his brother, James Allison Day; and his nephew, Joseph DiMare.
A memorial service will be held on Friday, April 25, at 10 A.M. at Bethel Presbyterian Church in West Columbia, Texas.
