Jeffrey N. Ivey, well known and loved by the lower valley farming community, passed to his eternal home on January 17, 2017. Jeffrey was born on June 20, 1959. He grew up in Tornillo and naturally took to farming. After graduating from Tornillo High School, he received his degree in agricultural economics from New Mexico State University. He settled in South Texas where he met his wife of 31 years, Patricia, and began a family while he managed Pueblo tire stores and several pawn shops. Returning to El Paso County he managed a farm and real estate ventures, and served on the El Paso Appraisal Review Board. He acquired his own pecan farm in Fabens and successfully ran it along with the neighboring farm. Jeffrey loved to laugh and was highly gifted and accurate with accounting, land values, along with many other talents. Mostly he was known for his outstanding generosity and soft heart. Jeffrey is survived by his beloved wife Patricia, children Michael (Krisell), Jeffrey, Ashley, Jennifer, and Charles, and three grandchildren. He is also survived by parents Charles and Mary Joyce Ivey, and siblings Craig, Richard, Mary Elizabeth, and Everett.
