Jeffrey Bies, Owner Of The Clubhouse In Huntington, Dies At 64

HUNTINGTON, NY — Jeffrey Bies, owner of The Clubhouse in Huntington, died on July 4. He was 64, according to A.L. Jacobsen Funeral Home.

He was the beloved husband of Casey Bies. Loving father of the late Cory Bies and Brittney (Danny Mannina) Bies. Devoted son of the late John and Geraldine Bies.

John and Geraldine Bies founded The Clubhouse, a steakhouse at 320 W. Jericho Turnpike, Huntington, in 1962, according to the eatery's website. The restaurant eventually became Jeffrey's.

"It is with a heavy heart, we inform you that Jeffrey Bies has entered heaven," The Clubhouse wrote in an email obtained by Patch. "Just over a month ago, Jeff suffered a severe fall in which he suffered extensive brain damage. Jeff was monitored closely in hopes there would be a chance for a recovery, but the nature of his injury prevented any significant chance for that hope we all held on to. God had his plan and Jeff was called home. As many of you may know Jeff and Casey tragically lost their son Cory, this undoubtedly left Jeff in a dark place. Jeff no longer has to endure that pain called grief, he is now with Cory doing everything a father and son would do."

Jeffrey's daughter, Brittney, is currently seven months pregnant, according to the restaurant.

"Although Jeff will miss the physical birth of his first grandchild, there is no question he will be the first to hold Mason Cory," it said. "Jeffrey was an incredibly gentle soul with a huge heart, please help give him the final services he most certainly deserves."

Services will be held 2 to 4 p.m. and 6 to 9 p.m. Friday at A.L. Jacobsen Funeral Home, located at 1380 New York Ave., Huntington Station. His funeral is scheduled for 9 a.m. Saturday at St. Elizabeth of Hungary Church at 175 Wolf Hill Road, Melville.
