February 22, 1953 - September 9, 2016
Jeffrey T. “Jeff” Goslee, 63, of Hot Springs was welcomed into his Lord’s arms on Friday, September 9, 2016. He was born on February 22, 1953 in Hot Springs to the late Thomas M. and Helen Watson Goslee. Jeff was a Navy veteran during the Vietnam Era and a commercial printer owning Goslee Printing for 38 plus years. He was a charter member of Hot Springs Baptist Church and a member of the church’s Celebration Choir and Orchestra. He was a member of the Hot Springs Concert Band and was a founding member of the C.S.O. “Senior Citizen Band” where he joined his father and others in 1975 and where he met his future wife, Cheryl in the Bicentennial Summer of 1976. In the spring of 1978 his parents opened Goslee Printing, Inc. and Cheryl joined the small contingency in the summer of 1978.
Jeff and Cheryl married in a small ceremony on April 30, 1979 and worked in the trade alongside his family and continued until his being called into his Lord’s arms.
He served in many areas with his church including running the sound system, weekly set-up and tear-down during the “nomadic” years of Hot Springs Baptist Church. He provided the printing for the church and when it came to pass he joined the church Music Ministry playing his big shiny silver euphonium. Jeff was a man with a servant’s heart.

Also surviving are his uncle and aunt, Charles and Peg Goslee of Hot Springs, favorite cousin, Marsha Goslee Burford as well as several other cousins on the Goslee side, three sisters-in-law, three brothers-in-law and numerous nieces and nephews from the Hill family.
