NYCkayaker Death of Jeff Hoyer

[Randall Henriksen]

Sadly, I’ve just learned that our friend Jeff Hoyer passed away 
suddenly on Thursday morning, December 7, at his home in Brooklyn. 
Although an autopsy has yet to be completed, cerebral hemorrhage 
resulting from stroke or aneurism is the suspected cause of death. I 
will pass along memorial details when I receive them to anyone 
expressing a wish to be informed.

We all enjoyed Jeff’s thoughtful contributions to this list – I 
especially enjoyed the Maine trip report he posted here last summer. 
His lucid writing made palpable the joy he experienced being in a kayak 
on the water with friends or in solitude. His conversation was 
thoughtful and lively, too. He stayed well informed and he enjoyed 
discussing gear, paddling, music, business, and politics. We last 
paddled together providing support for the 9/11 WTC Memorial Floating 
Lantern Ceremony. Jeff was a fun, cultured, and authentic presence in 
our local paddling community. He will be missed.
