Jeff Dienesch and his wife Cathy have been married for 30 years and love the time they get to spend with family. They are grateful to share life with 3 sons and 3 daughters from various cultures and backgrounds. This includes their biological children together with children joining their family through the foster care system.

In his spare time, Jeff enjoys sports, especially golf, and finding time to read a good book. He and his family also love to travel, attend concerts and view sporting events together.
