Jeffrey Krueger Obituary

Jeffrey "Jeff" Michael Krueger, 43, passed away recently, leaving behind a legacy of service and devotion. Born August 17, 1982, in Owatonna, MN, to Tom and Joyce Krueger, Jeff was raised in Nevis before embarking on a distinguished 16-year career in the U.S. Army, including several tours of duty.

In 2016, Jeff married his wife, Sierra, on August 6th. Following his military service, he worked for nearly six years at the GCC coal mine in Hesperus and most recently served as a mechanic at PAP. A passionate mechanic and avid snowboarder, Jeff was most at home on his Harley-Davidson or riding with his brothers in the Iron Order MC.

Jeff's greatest pride was his family. He is survived by his wife, Sierra; his children; Julian, Jaxon, Robin, Oaklynn, and Lillianna; his parents, Tom and Joyce; and his nieces, Taylinn, and Kinsley. He will be deeply missed by his family, his community, and his MC brothers.

A Celebration of Life will be held at Hood Mortuary Chapel, Durango, Colorado on Saturday, January 24, 2026 at 10:00 a.m.
