It is with a heavy heart that I share the news of the passing of a truly remarkable individual, my dear boss and friend, Jay. For over 6 years at the Medicine Shoppe, I had the privilege of working alongside him, where he imparted invaluable knowledge not only about pharmacy but also about the nuances of life itself.

Jay´s unwavering positivity and delightful sense of humor brightened our workplace and touched the lives of everyone around him. He stood by me during some of my most challenging times, offering support during my divorce and providing comfort when my father was gravely ill. His kindness extended beyond our professional relationship; he selflessly assisted my parents on numerous occasions, never expecting anything in return.

Jay was the epitome of compassion, a truly caring human being who embodied the essence of an angel on Earth. His mission here was fulfilled, and now God has called him home. The world is a little dimmer without him, but his legacy of kindness and strength will forever remain in our hearts.
