Jeffrey Scott Shaffer was born on November 11, 1962 in Stillwater, Oklahoma, foreshadowing his loyal and true status of being an Oklahoma State fan. He was born to Rod and Bonnie Shaffer and the young family soon moved to Arkansas, following Rod’s Air Force career. In 1969, the family moved to the Shaffer family homestead near Rosston and continued the family tradition of farming and ranching in Northwest Oklahoma. Jeff spent his formative years working and playing on the family ranch. Jeff graduated from Laverne High School in 1981. He later met and married Lucinda Covalt in Woodward, in 1990. Jeff and Lucinda had two daughters (Mariah and Madison) while living in Woodward. The family moved to Enid in 1997, where the family expanded to include two sons (Jadon and Jace).
