Jeff F. Metoxen, 52, Oneida, passed away unexpectedly of natural causes on Monday March 6, 2017. He was born September 26, 1964 to Lida H. (Parkhurst) and the late Roy K. Metoxen.

D. before being appointed as Chairman of the Gaming Commission for the Oneida Nation, for which he served 9 years. He was currently Director at Tsyunhehkwa.
