Marge & Family,
I am so sorry about your loss! My heart goes out to you and your family during this difficult loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.
"God saw you getting tired and a cure was not to be. So He put His arms around you and whispered "Come to Me." With tearful eyes we watched you, and saw you pass away. Although we loved you dearly, we could not make you stay. A golden heart stopped beating, hardworking hands at rest. God broke our hearts to prove to us, He only takes the best." - Author Unknown

My sympathies, obviously. I'm Mercedes Budd's grandson, and Hazel Vail passed word along. Sorry I didn't get the chance to meet Jay.
I've added material from the obituary to the family tree on ancestry.com. Know this is awkward, but when things settle down I'd be happy to share a link with any family members interested (write to me at [email protected]).
