Jeff, back in the day when we were in school, I remember thinking so highly of you. You were a great guy - athletic, a solid friend to many, talented with academics, music, sports, and just an all around likable guy. You will be missed by many, friend. Rest easy.
My sincere sympathy, thoughts, & prayers to your entire family. Jeff's sister, Michelle, was my former student and flowergirl many years ago. Your entire family has always been loved and treasured! He will always be watching over all of you!
As you read all of these comments Beth, Sara, and Emily, know that they come from a place of love. I met Jeff at the beginning of his teaching career at Cedar Drive. He was kind and reserved..with a definite twinkle in his eye. Years passed and his career took him to all of the places where he met all of the people who speak of him now- always kind and gentle. He had a way with the kids; they knew he cared and that made all the difference. Later, Jeff supported my efforts as we became partners in the development of school wide meetings at the elementary school. His enthusiasm during these meetings was obvious, and the kids joined in as he created a kind of magic. Certainly the world is dimmer without his light, but he rests in peace now. I hope that you, his family, will find peace and comfort in knowing that you too are loved.
Some 20 years ago, Jeff and I worked together at a summer job at the Manasquan River Yacht Club. He was a wonderful guy -- warm, funny, and bright. I remember how proud he was to bring his infant daughter to see us at work. Please accept my sympathies at this difficult time.
Dr. Huguenin made the Catena School a family. We thought of him as so much more than a principal, but as a friend as we talked about soccer and family. My 3 children all looked forward to seeing his warm smile as they entered the school doors and when they left for the day. We have so many happy memories that will keep him alive in our hearts forever. He truly made a difference in the lives of many children and their families. Our deepest condolences for your loss.
Sending thoughts and prayers to the entire Huguenin family during this difficult time. Jeff was one of a kind through out high school, always providing a warm smile, big hugs, and lots of laughter. He was a wonderful friend who was always there for others. I am honored I got a glimpse of what a wonderful man he turned into.
Sending the entire Huguenin family love and prayers. Jeff radiated kindness and quiet strength when we were in high school and it's clear that those traits defined his life. This is tragic. Plain and simple. But together, you'll persevere. Just as Jeff would want you to do. It's a simple quote but I hope it provides some solace: "You can never lose the people you have loved deeply. All that we love deeply becomes a part of us. For the ages." -- Helen Keller.
My deepest and most heartfelt condolences to Beth, her girls and the entire family. The best teaching job I ever had was when I was working with Jeff at Cedar Drive Middle school. He was the epitome of everything great; great heart, great friend, great teacher, husband, father, leader... I simply can't believe he's gone.
My deepest sympathies and condolences to Beth, the girls, and the entire Huguenin and Salerno families. Jeff was truly a special person. He was more than a friend, he was a mentor and an inspiration for me at West Chester University. He helped me to become a better soccer player and more importantly, a better person. I know that he will be missed but for those of us fortunate enough to have known him, his memory and inspiration will live on.
Jeff was my first roommate at West Chester University. We went to Middlesex County College and then to West Chester to play soccer together. So many great memories of those days and being there when he and Beth first started dating. He was a tremendous person and I'm a better person for having known him in this life. You will be missed by so many people and those lives you touched. My deepest sympathies to Beth and the girls and the entire Huguenin family.
Dr. Huguenin was one of my professors at Georgian Court as I returned to school for my Masters. He was an exceptional professor and amazing mentor. He had a real passion for education. The world has lost a special man.
Mr. Huguenin was my health teacher when I was in Middle School. I vividly remember feeling invisible and like he was the only one who took the time to see me. He taught me that a smile and a bit of warmth could make all the difference in the world. I turn 30 this year and have since become a teacher and leadership trainer working with students. I think of the way he impacted me and aim to do the same with my students everyday. I cannot imagine your heartache during this time but I wanted you to know that those of us who have been lucky enough to be taught by him will carry on his legacy in our hearts and in our actions. Sending love and peace to his family and especially his girls.
We are so incredibly sorry for your loss. Dr. Huguenin was a wonderful principal and it was very apparent how much he cared about the children at Catena School. He will be greatly missed. Our thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family.
Dr. Huguenin was the principal for all of my three children during their time at Catena, and he was amazing. He will be missed very much, and we send you our heartfelt wishes for healing. Dr. Hugeuinin always had a smile and a kind word for my kids and was a great presence at Catena.
My daughters have been so lucky to have had Dr. Huguenin as their principal at Catena. He helped transform Catena into a family , instilling values that my girls will keep within them forever. Today my youngest is wearing her Catena t-shirt as she attends DDE, in honor of a man who truly inspired all with his leadership, vision and warm heart . I pray for his wife , daughters, family, colleagues and students to get by this difficult time.
Our deepest condolences to the Huguenin family. I have 2 kids that go to Catena and my boys always spoke so highly of him. My 1st grader told me he always gave Dr. H hugs every time he saw him. Thank you Dr. Huguenin for being a role model for my boys. Thank you for being a super principle. You will be missed. RiP
From my family to yours, I am so sorry for your loss...Dr. Jeffrey Huguenin was one of the nicest men I've ever had the privilege to know...My son and I had just moved to Freehold last October and he made my son's transition so easy and helped him with many things...He was always very professional and always willing to help anyone...I could tell he loved his school, all his teachers and students and of course his family...Although there are NO true words to tell how much he will be missed and thought of, my heart goes out to his immediate family and the whole JJ Catena school staff and students...Heaven just received another angel, an Amazing man...You will be missed dearly but never forgotten...Rest in peace...
I was fortunate enough to be under the leadership of Jeff at Conover Road Elementary School in Colts Neck. He was a great leader, educator, and cared for his staff and students greatly. My heart goes out to Beth and the girls, and to all who were touched by him in some way. May he Rest In Peace.
My heartfelt condolences to Dr. Jeffrey Huguenin family. We are not in freehold anymore. But my daughter went to Catena from kindergarten through 2nd grade. Dr H was a wonderful principle and we loved him very much. He always had a smile on his face. We are truly saddened by this news. RIP dr H.
Beth-I am so sorry to hear this terrible news. You and your family are in my prayers. Jeff welcomed me with open arms my freshman year playing for WCU. He was the perfect person to help me make my transition into college and onto a new team.
We are so saddened by this tragic loss. My daughter, who is a 3rd grader at JJC, always spoke very highly of Dr. Huguenin. She broke down as I told her he had gone to Heaven. Our condolences and prayers go out to the Huguenin family. Please know he was loved and respected by both students and parents. God Bless
The Catena family and my family send their condolences to The Huguenin family and friends. Dr. Huguenin was an amazing principal. The care and pride that he had in his school and his students was shown in his smile every day. He was always present at every school event and Catena will not be the same without him. I am blessed that my daughter had the pleasure of being under his wing for the past 6 years. He will be missed.
While we only knew Dr. Huguenin a short while, he certainly left a wonderful & lasting impression on us! Our condolences to his wife, daughters, family, friends & entire Catena family during this very difficult time, may he RIP
My deepest condolences to all of Dr. Huguenin's family and friends. I have two children that go to Catena. They've always considered him to be a great principal. We were all shocked and saddened by his passing. We hope in knowing how many lives he impacted with his kindness brings some comfort in this very difficult time for all who knew him.
I want to give your Family my friend, my deepest sympathy on your departure from us! I hope that God will fulfill their hearts with this emptiness! It was a great pleasure in playing soccer next to you, you were always a gentleman and a great friend in and out of the field. May God Rest your soul my friend and Bless your Family! Until the next Match mate
He had a deep impact on my daughter who was rezoned to Catena in 2nd grade. He always made sure she was adjusting well and always had a smile on his face regardless of the situation. There wasnt a day that went by at catena that he wasnt smiling and welcoming kids with open arms. He went out of his way to keep catena safe and a place these kids can call home. My daughter is in 7th now but his efforts and smile are not forgotten.
Our Freehold Catena school is so deeply saddened of this terrible loss....I am so fortunate to have had my 3 children know him as an amazing Principal! Here will be deeply missed. My sincere condolences and prayers goes out to the Family and friends of Dr. Huguenin at this time.......
