DOVER - With a heavy heart, we share the passing of Jeffrey Waterhouse, 52, who left us at his home in Dover, New Hampshire, after a period of declining health.

Born on March 10, 1973, in Rochester, New Hampshire, Jeffrey was the son of Carl and Kathy Waterhouse. A proud Navy veteran, he served his country with honor and courage. He loved nothing more than to gather with family and friends, with a home cooked meal and entertaining everyone with his incredible stories and quick wit. He had a gift for making people laugh. Whether it was a lively board game or a simple card game, he loved the spirit of friendly competition and the joy of shared moments.

Jeff was happiest when he was immersed in nature, finding peace and excitement in the outdoors. He was a true adventurer at heart, whether he was enjoying the waves on his surfboard, climbing a challenging mountain, or exploring new trails on his off-road bike. The world was his playground, and he found joy in every corner of it, often with his loyal dog, Shelby, by his side.

Jeff's memory will be cherished by his loving family: his parents, Carl and Kathy Waterhouse of Barrington, NH; his son, Corey Waterhouse of Bartlett, TN; his life partner, Angela Waterhouse of Bartlett, TN; and his sister, Amy Ouellette (Christopher, Eowyn, & Istra) of Barrington, NH.

Jeff is predeceased by Francis "Frank" and Elaine (Moore) McGurty, Lester and Barbara (Brown) Waterhouse. Great Grandparents: Maurice and Iva (Swain) Waterhouse. His warmth, adventurous spirit, and love for life will be deeply missed by all who knew him.
