Meet
the Jeffreys
Rooted in faith, grounded in family
Holly and her husband, Kelly, met at church after he moved to the Texas Panhandle to attend WT. They have been married for 33 years and raised four children who now have families of their own. Their family still attends the church where Holly’s father pastored for nearly four decades. Their life reflects the steady influence of faith, family, and Texas Panhandle values.
