    Jeff and his wife are residents here in the Toronto area. I got to know him a little through his sister and brother inlaw (his wife's family).

    He opened an amazing litle venue (Healy's) downtown Toronto and I was fortunate enough to catch him jamming with some of the rock greats.

    He is a testament to the ability to fight so many obstacles.

    Likely best remembered for Angel Eyes but he was about the only good thing about Patrick Swayze's bomb Roadhouse. (His club name was actually Healy's Roadhouse" but most locals just called it Healys.)

    RIP and go jam with other lost music greats

    Gotta love Jeff Healey!

    He has the extra "e' in his last name, not that it matters much.

    He was a cool dude. Saw him live several times back in the day.

    He'll be missed. Far too young to die.
