Jay was a creative, talented, and inspiring person who has left a tremendous impact on all who knew him. His physical art can be seen in numerous paintings, murals, playhouses, wedding arches, benches, piers and so much more. His true gift to all was his wit, eloquence and constant irreverent humor. Jay is survived by his mother, Maxine; wife, Nancy; sons, Aaron, Adam, Austin and A.J; and five grandchildren, Emma, Lizzie, Parker, Chase and Calvin. He was a dutiful son, caring husband, an encouraging father, loving papa and a great friend. He has spent much of his retirement in Lower Lake, California, where he spent his time building and creating art. Jay has left his stamp on this world, has made it a more beautiful place and will be tremendously missed by all.
