LEWISTON – With great sadness we announce the death of our husband, father and brother, Jeffrey Mayerson.

Jeff was born to Bertram and Dorothy (Gillette) Mayerson on Jan. 23, 1965 in Hartford, Conn. He graduated from Penney High School in 1983. Jeff then went on to Findlay College (University of Findlay) in Ohio, where he met his future wife and received his bachelor’s degree in 1987.
