Jeff was born on Sept. 8, 1977, to Greg and Audrey (Ferderer) Morman. He grew up in Bismarck and attended Roosevelt Grade School, Cathedral of the Holy Spirit Jr. High and graduated from SMCHS in 1996. He graduated from NDSU in 2002 and most recently was a team lead at NISC.

Before graduating college, Jeff worked in various restaurants which made him an excellent cook. From making his own tomato sauce or any kind of sauce, to baking the best bread and making his own pastas.

During his younger years he dabbled in pro-wrestling, rock climbing, and was a blackbelt in Judo. He also loved the NDSU Bison. Jeff had a large, giving heart. If someone he knew needed any help, physically or financially, he was there. He loved doing dog agility with his dog, Rufus.

In May 2019, Jeff married the love of his life, Alice Ospovat. They were made for each other. Jeff had never been so happy. He became stepdad to wonderful sons, Corbin and Simon, who he loved as his own.

Jeff leaves behind his wife, Alice; stepsons, Corbin and Simon Rysavy; mother, Audrey; brother, Randy; sister, Jennifer (Andrew) Herrud; special nephew, Parker Herrud, and special nieces, Lyla and Keira Herrud; in-laws, Naaman and VA Ospovat; uncle, Ron (Denise) Ferderer; and his aunts, Susan and Sarah Morman.

Jeff was preceded in death by his father, Gregory; grandparents, Ralph and Eleanor Ferderer and Fred and Martha Morman; and his aunt, Rose Ferderer Wruck.
