Jeffrey Scott Ridley (Rids) passed away peacefully March 17, 2025 after his courageous battle with cancer, surrounded by love in his final moments, just as he was throughout life. He was a proud graduate of Edina High School and the University of MN and member of Phi Psi fraternity. He had a deep love for hockey, skiing, biking and boating-passions that brought him both adventure and lifelong friendships. He passed along his love for hockey as a youth hockey coach. He gathered new friends in every phase of his life and kept them all close. Gatherings were brighter with his positive attitude and fun-loving spirit and lives inspired by his optimism and the simple lesson of embracing life with enthusiasm. He also leaves behind his wife of 38 years, Cindy; son, T.J. (Courtney); daughter, Kalli; granddaughters, June and Nora; sister, Kathy and stepmother, Linda.

In lieu of flowers, honor his memory by spending time with those you love - as he did. Celebration of Life 3/22, 1:00 PM, Braemar Golf Course
