To the family of Jeffrey F. Sapinski you have my deepest condolences and sympathy. Jeff was the same person 24-hours a day. Safe, laughter and fun was Jeff’s way of life while always dropping golden nuggets. A very strong and positive person even when he had reason not to be. Rest in peace Jeff you will be sorely missed. Hearts will remain tender but forever be grateful for the compassion, love and entertainment you provided just by being you. I THANK YOU Jeff for pulling me under your wings at the start of my career in 1999 and on the Douglas Park (Pink Line) Project.
To the family of Jeff,My deepest condolences. I met Jeff just 2 years ago while working with him at the CTA his quick wit and the ease he had with people made me feel comfortable right away,Jeff you will be missed.
As a fraternity brother of Jeff (Beav, as we knew him), I offer all his family my deepest regrets to Jeff’s passing. Jeff was one who relished life and seemed to put all the fun into everything he tried. He would wear his emotions on his sleeve and even in a Packer infested State as WI, loved the Bears and Blackhawks. Many an evening down at one of the bars was spent playing pinball or enjoying everyone’s company. I’m sure he’s in Heaven talking sports and seeing what kind of mischief he could get into. My prayers and thoughts go out to you all.
We admired Jeff’s leadership skills in the ski club. Plus he was just a fun guy! Always pleasant and easy to talk to. Very patient and ran a great trip!
We loved you Jeff! RIP
Condolences to family and friends. Jeff was a freind who I enjoyed skiing with on the Sanctuary Club trips and co-worker on many CTA projects, the best safety professional in the industry, his hard work and knowledge saved many lives. He will surely be missed. God bless his soul and may he rest in peace
Please accept our condolences to the Sapinski family.
Jeff was always a good and positive force in our lives.
Starting from Rich’s time with Jeff on the track team at RB through the formation of the softball teams and founding of Sanctuary Ski Club where we ultimately met and subsequently married.
Ski trips, camping, softball, golfing, football pool we’re just a small part of our enjoyed lives together with Jeff.
There was no truer or better friend than Jeff.
His loss will leave a void in our lives that can never be filled.
God Bless Him.
I met Jeff at the CTA. He definitely loved his job and was a wealth of knowledge concerning all aspects of the CTA. If I had a question about something,he was always a great resource.

My utmost condolences to his family and loved ones.

To the Sapinski family, I’m very sorry for your loss. No matter how much time passes, we still feel the loss of our loved ones.
