Jay is our cousin. We will miss him dearly. Always an interesting conversation and good cook.

Jay has a fundamental part in my memories of an idyllic childhood, growing up in our Penn Hills neighborhood, those endless summer days, all of us playing in that woods... And Jay leading us off in some new adventure that would probably curl our parents' hair.
His mischievous grin will be etched forever in my heart and I know he will be missed by many.
My deepest condolences to all who knew and loved him.
