Jeffrey Overstreet Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Legacy Funeral Home, Wasilla Heritage Chapel on Feb. 19, 2025.
Jeffrey John Overstreet was born at the Presbyterian Community Hospital in Birchwood Alaska to Linda Ray Bergman and John Edwin Overstreet on January 20, 1965 and passed away unexpectedly on January 20, 2025 at home.
A service will be held at Wasilla Bible Church at 3pm on Tuesday the 28th of January, 2025, at Wasilla Bible Church, 1651 W. Nicola Avenue in Wasilla Alaska.
Jeff graduated from Wasilla High School in 1983, attended Arizona State University and Northern Arizona University, where he was reunited with gradeschool/highschool friend Michelle Carney (Overstreet). They were married in March of 1993 and welcomed daughter Elliana in 2005.
Jeff and Michelle lived in Anchorage, Wasilla, Arizona, and returned to the Mat Su Valley in 2009. Jeff had various sales jobs, including selling Mastercraft boats which he greatly enjoyed. But his calling was to be an Edward Jones Financial advisor, a career he wished he had found earlier in life and took great pride in. He was also President of the Wasilla Noon Rotary and strongly believed in "Service above Self".
Jeff enjoyed adventure, including commercial fishing off Kodiak Island from 1984-1992, crewing a sailboat off the Southern Coast of the US and he drove the Alaska Highway a dozen times, the last road trip was with his daughter, Elliana, to the University of Idaho. He enjoyed ultra mountain bike racing and biking in general, logging tens of thousands of miles a year and placing in several 24-hour Races in Alaska and Arizona. He also loved hotrodding, car shows, fishing, Diamondbacks baseball and Suns basketball. Jeff loved life! Jeff is survived by wife Michelle Overstreet, daughter Elliana Overstreet, Sisters Lori Kirk and Brenda Hall, Mother Linda Bergman and extended family.
